ABOUT US

Welcome! I’m Samantha Barnes, a licensed massage therapist based in Sandy, Oregon, with over 8 years of hands-on experience. I provide trauma-informed medical massage therapy with a focus on pain management, injury recovery, and prenatal support. My practice is designed to meet the needs of individuals and families who are seeking skilled, evidence-based care in a safe and supportive environment. I believe in the body’s natural capacity to heal. I’ve seen it time and again—when people are met with compassionate touch, customized treatment, and the space to rest and reconnect with their bodies, real healing begins. ⸻ My Approach Massage therapy is more than just a physical practice—it’s an opportunity to create a therapeutic relationship that supports both body and mind. I specialize in medical massage, using techniques informed by the latest research to address soft tissue dysfunction, pain, and mobility restrictions. Each session is tailored to your unique needs, whether you’re dealing with acute discomfort, long-term stress, or recovery from injury. I work with a wide range of concerns, including: • General and localized pain management • Stress-related tension, anxiety, and poor sleep • Post-accident recovery and repetitive strain issues • Prenatal support, including common pregnancy discomforts • Nervous system regulation and gentle restoration Whether you’re looking for therapeutic relief or ongoing support, I create a space where you can feel safe, seen, and cared for. ⸻ Prenatal and Perinatal Support One of the most rewarding aspects of my work is supporting people through pregnancy. I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside many clients through the physical, emotional, and postural changes that come with carrying and caring for new life. Prenatal massage is more than just relaxation—it’s targeted, nurturing care that can improve sleep, reduce back and hip pain, ease swelling, and provide a much-needed sense of grounding during a time of major transformation. I approach this work with both skill and sensitivity, adapting every session to where you are in your journey. ⸻ My Values & Philosophy I believe: • Movement is medicine—we’re meant to move, and when our bodies are in pain, that movement becomes restricted. Through massage, I help restore ease and flow so you can return to the activities you love. • The body wants to heal—with the right support, rest, and regulation, the nervous system and musculoskeletal system will work toward balance. • Everyone deserves safe, respectful, and professional care—I meet you where you are, without judgment, and with the goal of building trust over time. • Care should be accessible—which is why I accept HSA and FSA accounts for medically necessary massage services. I also offer a 20% discount for members of the BIPOC community as part of my commitment to equitable care. ⸻ Why I Do This Work What drew me to massage therapy—and what keeps me in love with it—is the power of connection. It’s incredibly meaningful to be part of someone’s healing journey, to witness progress over time, and to provide real, tangible relief. I value the relationships I’ve built through this work, and I hold deep respect for every person who walks through my door. ⸻ Location & Availability You can find me at the Revive building in Sandy, OR, where I offer appointments on Sundays, Mondays, and Wednesdays. I offer both targeted fire cupping sessions and custom therapeutic massage, depending on your needs and goals. ⸻ Let’s Work Together If you’re ready to reduce pain, feel more grounded in your body, and move through life with greater ease, I’d love to support you. Whether you’re navigating stress, recovering from injury, or simply seeking care that honors the whole you—body, mind, and nervous system—I’m here to help. Every BODY deserves massage. ⸻
