Integrative Bodywork for Whole Body Health
Bringing you home to yourself through massage and pelvic care
Rooted in Tradition, Refined by Modern Insight
Cara’s approach is trauma-informed, with care rooted in curiosity and a non-judgmental understanding that each body carries its own history and needs. Blending East Asian modalities such as shiatsu, tui na, and chi nei tsang with modern approaches including Visceral Manipulation and Biodynamic Craniosacral, her work is holistic, intentional, and deeply attuned to the needs of each individual.
Services

My pelvic floor work takes a whole-body approach, treating the entire body rather than focusing only on isolated muscles. I blend precise structural techniques with individualized, trauma-informed care to address physical tension alongside nervous system and emotional patterns. Sessions may include abdominal and fascial work, lymphatic and breast massage, external vulvar techniques, and gentle internal vaginal or anal treatment.
A one hour phone consultation is required before booking a pelvic floor work appointment.

Integrative bodywork is a trauma-informed weaving of touch, guided by what the body asks for on any given day. Drawing from shiatsu, tui na, Swedish techniques, biodynamic craniosacral work, cupping, and moxa, each session unfolds uniquely, always in service of what’s needed in the moment.

About
Embodiment is my mission. Presence is my practice.
Again and again, I return to the body as a place of solace, through working with the bodies of others and through listening to my own. Bodywork not only liberates physical structures, but opens the door to mental, emotional, and spiritual liberation. Touch has been a foundational language in my life since childhood, shaping a deep respect for the body’s innate intelligence. With backgrounds in dance, nei gong, and a multitude of athletics, I work with subtle internal rhythms and the body’s natural capacity to reorganize and restore balance.
I am currently completing my doctorate in Classical Chinese Medicine at NUNM in Portland, OR, which greatly informs all of my work through the understanding of yin yang harmony, channel theory, a Heart-centered approach, and a whole-person, whole cosmology understanding.
I am a Licensed Massage Therapist in Portland, OR, offering both whole-body pelvic floor work and integrative bodywork. I blend modalities including shiatsu, Biodynamic Craniosacral, tuina, Visceral Manipulation, and Swedish deep tissue work to promote freedom of movement in the bodymind. My approach is rooted in presence and a deep reverence that healing emerges when the body feels safe and sincerely listened to.
The Space
Your sessions will be held in a quiet, private office in Portland’s Mt. Tabor neighborhood, with easy parking available behind the building. The office is located up one flight of stairs, so please keep this in mind when booking. Once inside, you’ll find a cozy, peaceful space designed to support deep rest and clinically informed care.
