About

Welcome!

Hi, I’m Steph George and thanks for visiting my site! I began practicing massage therapy in 2004 after graduating from the Connecticut Center for Massage Therapy.

Since then, I’ve worked in wellness centers, private practice and now my home office in the Kerns neighborhood of Northeast Portland!  When I’m not working with clients, I enjoy hiking in the beautiful Pacific Northwest and indoor climbing. If everyone has a vice, then mine is skiing—in winter, I’m most likely to be found on the slopes of Mount Hood.

My Clients

Many of my clients are athletes or have high-stress office jobs, both of which can result in chronic pain that interferes with daily life.

I also see expecting moms and many people who simply need a massage to decompress and relax.

“This review is all about Steph George. I'm not a usual reviewer, but I am so blown away by her that I feel compelled to write one. I'm 44 and have had a couple hundred massages in my life, and both of the times I have been to Steph, she has found spots that I think no one has ever touched before, getting deep under tendons and finding knots and trigger points in the most seemingly unlikely places. Seriously, like in my neck, deep in my hips near the bone, along my collarbone, and other awesome places.

If you want deep, she can do it but is also very attentive and is great about checking in about pressure. Going to Steph definitely put the "therapeutic" in therapeutic massage. I really did feel like, "Oh, so that's what massage can do!" afterwards.

Anyway, I could gush more and it's hard to describe but between the intensity, the goosebumps, the just-up-to-the-edge-of-pain work, I felt transformed. If you need some serious work done, she should be your pick!”–Heather G.

My Approach

Throughout my career, I’ve found that clients are most drawn to my work for its pain and tension relieving qualities, so this has become my specialty. I am also committed to preventative self-care—I love empowering my clients to take charge of their own self-care by providing suggestions on stretches and self-massage techniques. This can work wonders in preventing those painful “emergencies” from recurring.

I am dedicated to meeting each person at their need and comfort level, whether you prefer a light touch for relaxation or deep tissue work for pain relief and recovery. Over the years, I’ve developed my practice with a wide range of therapies including:

  • Deep tissue
  • Ashiatsu
  • Cupping
  • Gua sha
  • Hot stone massage
  • Hydrotherapy
  • Pre-natal
