Services
An appointment with Hamid is unrushed, allowing you to share your body's story. We create a safe, sacred space to discover, to play, to move, to talk, to unwind. Bodywork sessions may include standing bodywork, seaed positioning, mat work, along with table work. With multi-complex chronic pain and trauma, the first session may involve more talk than bodywork.
Hamid specializes in integrative, multi-faceted massage and bodywork, promoting balance and well-being through meditative, authentic presence, emphasizing pain management, self-awareness and structural harmony. The following are some of the modalities incorporated into a massage session. New trainings are taken several times a year, always expanding knowledge and technique.
Choose a discounted series of 60 or 90 minute bodywork sessions from the drop-down menu, then press the "Buy Now" button. Sessions in series are scheduled every 1-2 weeks. Please contact me if you'd like a physical copy of a gift certificate. Appointments must be cancelled 24 hours in advance. In the case of an emergency, please contact Hamid as soon as possible to reschedule the appointment. A missed appointment will void a gift certificate, discounted bodywork package or Bodywork Subscription session.
Spiritual and inspirational quotes. The quotations come from Hamid's library of readings and meanderings through the spiritual world. May you find a glimmer of truth in these words, leading you ever closer to the beauty of your self-realization. Human subtlety will never devise an invention more beautiful, more simple or more direct than does nature because in her inventions nothing is lacking, and nothing is superfluous.

Hamid Shibata Bennett is a bodyworker's bodyworker, a healer's healer and an artist's artist! He is a rare gem in the community! With impressive skills, playful movement and respectful humility, Hamid continues to inspire seasoned professionals and new generations of LMTs alike! I am grateful for getting to be his client and student over the years, for the balance he has helped me enjoy in my body, and have recommended him to many others! He's truly one of the very best massage therapists in Portland.
