Total Calm

Some bodies don’t need more intensity.
They need less noise.

Total Calm is designed to support the nervous system and reduce full-body tension tied to stress, mental fatigue, and overstimulation. This work is well suited for clients who feel depleted, overwhelmed, or disconnected from their bodies.

Sessions move at a slow, steady pace.
Continuous strokes.
Moderate pressure.
Nothing rushed.

The goal is regulation, not escape.

When the nervous system settles, clarity and ease tend to follow.

60 minutes – $135
90 minutes – $150

To schedule, call (503) 664-9470 or visit davidholdenlmt.com to book your Total Calm Massage Ritual when you’re ready.

Winter tends to show up in the body.

Less movement.
Colder mornings.
Muscles that take longer to warm and let go.

Stiffness in winter isn’t random. Tissue that already works hard often becomes less elastic when temperatures drop and daily movement patterns shrink.

This is where heat and steady manual work can be useful.

Warmth helps tissue soften so deeper work can happen without added force.

Massage supports circulation, mobility, and more efficient movement through the colder months.

For some bodies, that means focused hands-on work.
For others, heat becomes an important tool alongside it.

If winter has been settling into your shoulders, hips, or back, appointments can be scheduled by calling (503) 664-9470 or by visiting davidholdenlmt.com to book your massage.

Can massage help my back pain?

Sometimes.
And it depends on what’s contributing to the pain.

Back pain often isn’t coming from a single spot.
It’s influenced by posture, movement habits, workload, stress, and how the nervous system is responding overall.

Massage can help by reducing excessive muscle tone, improving tissue mobility, and supporting better movement patterns. It can also calm the nervous system, which plays a role in how pain is perceived and maintained.

The work is most effective when it’s targeted and consistent.

Relief tends to last longer when the body has time to adapt, rather than being pushed for quick results.

If back pain has been lingering or returning despite rest, stretching, or one-off treatments, a more deliberate approach may be worth exploring.

To talk through whether massage makes sense for your back pain, call (503) 664-9470 or visit davidholdenlmt.com to book your back pain massage when you’re ready.

Tech neck shows up as a pattern across the shoulders, upper back, and jaw. Addressing it means working with the system, not just the symptom.

Taking care of your body counts as love.

Not the loud kind.
The practical kind.

It shows up as paying attention to small signals before they become bigger problems.

As choosing steady care over waiting until something hurts enough to demand it.
This work isn’t about indulgence.

It’s about maintenance, recovery, and keeping the system working as well as it can.
Care given consistently tends to be the most effective form.

If your body has been asking for attention, appointments can be scheduled by calling (503) 664-9470 or by visiting davidholdenlmt.com to book your therapeutic massage.

This Valentine's Day, treat your significant other to an Earth & Fire Hot Stone Ritual

Heat changes how tissue responds.

Earth & Fire uses warmth as a therapeutic tool, not a performance.
Heated stones allow guarded tissue to soften so deeper work can happen with less force.

This approach is especially effective for bodies that hold tension deeply, or for clients who respond better to warmth than pressure alone.

Stones are used deliberately and sparingly, paired with focused hands-on work.
Nothing rushed. Nothing excessive.

The result is a calm, effective session that supports deeper release without overstimulation.

60 minutes – $135
90 minutes – $150

To schedule, call (503) 664-9470 or visit davidholdenlmt.com to book your Earth & Fire Ritual when you’re ready.

There are some things a massage therapist notices immediately…

How you move when you walk into the room.
How you lie down on the table.
Where the body resists before pressure is even applied.

The tissue tells a story quickly.
Areas that guard. Areas that overwork.
Patterns that suggest compensation rather than isolated pain.

This is why the work doesn’t start with force.
It starts with attention.

When touch meets the place the body has been holding, the response is often clear. From there, the work becomes deliberate and repeatable.

If you’re ready to work with someone who pays close attention, call (503) 664-9470 or visit davidholdenlmt.com to book your massage.

After a massage, the body keeps working.

Tissue responds to what it’s been shown.
Circulation shifts.
Nervous system tone settles or recalibrates.

What you do next matters.

Drink water to support circulation and tissue hydration.
Move gently. Walking is often enough.
Notice how your body feels over the next 24 hours rather than forcing a judgment right away.

Soreness doesn’t always mean something went wrong.
Neither does immediate relief mean the work is finished.

Massage is a process.

Consistency is what allows the body to change its patterns, not intensity or one-off sessions.

If you have questions after your session, or you’re ready to schedule your next appointment, call (503) 664-9470 or visit https://www.davidholdenlmt.com/ to book when it feels right.

These aren’t props.
They’re tools.

Heat changes how tissue behaves. It creates space for work to land more accurately, especially when the body has been holding for a long time.

That’s why they’re used intentionally.

The Wellness Circle
“This Is Ritual - Not Routine”

This isn’t a subscription.
It’s a commitment to consistent care.

The Wellness Circle is designed for clients who understand that change doesn’t come from one session. It comes from returning to the body regularly, before pain escalates, before stress compounds, before everything feels harder than it needs to.

Each month, you step back into the work with a clear rhythm. Sessions are focused. Progress is tracked. The nervous system gets repeated, accurate input instead of occasional relief.

This is structure that supports regulation.
This is how steady care creates lasting change.

The Wellness Circle is for people who value reliability over intensity, and consistency over quick fixes. It allows you to choose a monthly rhythm that keeps the body supported, or a focused series when something specific needs attention.

What’s included:
✓ Month-to-month plans with no long-term contracts
✓ Unused sessions roll over for 60 days
✓ Member pricing on add-on services
✓ No pressure, cancel anytime
✓ Professional, attentive care built around your life

Massage isn’t a luxury.
It’s how you maintain the system you live in.

If you have questions, you can also call or text (503) 664-9470.

Your body responds to consistency.
This is how you give it that chance.

If you’ve never had a massage before, it’s normal to feel unsure about what will happen.

A first session isn’t about doing everything at once. It starts with a brief check-in about how your body has been feeling and what’s been showing up for you.

Nothing rehearsed. Nothing clinical. Just enough to understand where attention is needed.

During the session, the pace is unhurried. You’re always properly draped, and only the areas being worked on are uncovered. Pressure is deliberate and adjustable.

You don’t need to tolerate discomfort, and you don’t need to explain every sensation.

You can talk or stay quiet.
You can ask for changes at any point.
Your body sets the tone.

Massage works best when you don’t feel like you have to perform or “do it right.” The goal is simply to let the body respond.

If you’re ready to book your first session, schedule at davidholdenlmt.com
or call/text (503) 664-9470 if you’d rather ask questions before getting on the table.
