clients say:

  • Barrie and Trager accomplished more for my body in five sessions than deep tissue massage did over six years. I did not expect such a dramatic difference
  • The most relaxed I've felt in ages. Trager was a revelation!
  • My work with Barrie also brought awareness to emotional patterns that contribute to body tension and how to work with those patterns in the body to change the emotional state and release tension.
  • I was surprised we were able to create so much movement that did not hurt so much relaxation in the muscles around my shoulder.
  • Barrie herself is wonderfully warm and compassionate. I cannot recommend the Trager approach and Barrie enough. Give it a try, you will NOT regret it!

​more about Thai

integrative therapeutic massage

Oil-based massage, personalized with a variety of techniques from Trager®, Thai, neuromuscular, myofascial, cupping, and deep tissue massage modalities.

Four-session Wellness series

Special pricing is available for four-session series. While people often come to bodywork for quick relief from pain or a particular issue, the possibility of lasting improvement involves the nervous system and growing self-awareness. While massage on a specific spot can create temporary relief from that pain, the habitual patterns creating that pain will often recur. Habitual patterns often manifest in the emotional, physical, and mental realms. By educating the nervous system over multiple sessions you'll be inviting long-term wellness and a lasting solution to pains or struggles.

MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENTS - insurance billing 

If you were involved in an auto accident and have a prescription for massage therapy, Barrie Robbins Bodywork will bill your auto insurance company for you and you will likely not have to pay anything*. Soft tissue injuries, such as sprains, strains, spasms, adhesions and inflammation can cause debilitating pain and myriad postural compensations that can lead to more trouble over time. Stress and trauma from accidents can wreak havoc on even the healthiest person. It's important to seek treatment as soon as possible following an accident.

*If you are injured in a motor vehicle collision in Oregon, it is your right to seek treatment from providers of your choice. Oregon requires auto insurance companies to provide Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage on all policies. That means they will pay for treatments related to your injuries for up to one year from the date of the incident OR until your PIP benefits ($15,000) are exhausted. This is whether you were the driver, passenger, pedestrian, or bicyclist in the accident. PIP covers all health care, including chiropractic care, massage therapy, acupuncture, and physical therapy. Get started.
