Shanta
has been practicing massage in Portland for over 18 years. Having been a
Nurse’s Aide, a Subrogation Specialist, and a Paralegal for personal
injury attorneys, she has spent much of her work life surrounded by and
processing other people’s pain. During her first massage class, she
realized she had found her life’s work. After 18 years as an LMT, she
still feels that way. Shanta is passionate about sharing her work with
others. Her
approach is exceptionally intuitive. She specializes in listening and
personalizing treatment to address the wellness needs of each client.
By combining aspects of Eastern Massage modalities (Shiatsu,
Acupressure and Traditional Thai Massage Stretches) with Western
Massage modalities ( Swedish, Deep Tissue, Cranial Sacral Therapy,
myofascial release techniques and Biodynamic Massage) a Shantastic
Massage is created that addresses her clients individual needs and
problem areas. In
addition to training at the National Holistic Institute in Emeryville,
CA and the Acupressure Institute in Berkeley, CA, she has received a BS
in Criminal Justice from Northeastern University in Boston, MA. Shanta
is currently studying CranioSacral Therapy with the Upledger Institute. She is also finalizing her studies with Yomassage.
