Tualatin, OR Spa and Massage

The experienced therapists at Zama know how to make muscles melt in a protein pool. Choose from four relaxing massages: the Swedish (soothing, relaxing, de-stressing), sports massage (full-body option that stretches tight muscles and returns them to their full, active potential), deep-tissue massage (alleviates tremendous pain, reduces debilitating scar tissue, and decreases incidents of stress-yelling), or ashiatsu (ancient method that applies deep pressure from the therapist's feet). Pair muscle unknotting with a sense-awakening scent blend such as geranium and orange Balancing; tingly tea tree; lavender; eucalyptus and peppermint Muscle Relief; the lemon-, peppermint-, and rosemary-slicked Revitalizing; or the tea-like Stress Relief, with jasmine and bergamot.

Clearwater Clinic’s thee chiropractic doctors, Bryan Baisinger, Jacob May, and Greg Lekas, all share at least one other passion: athletics. Dr. Baisinger, the owner, specializes in sports medicine and performance. When he isn’t in the office, he’s serving as team physician for Portland State University’s athletics department, medical director for the Portland Fit marathon-training group, or hapkido instructor at Portland State.

Dr. May is a member of the physical therapy team at the Oregon Ballet Theater, Dr. Lekas teaches martial arts, and both donate their time and skills to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Team in Training sports-training program. At Clearwater, all three doctors combine their areas of expertise to provide integrative chiropractic care with manipulative therapy and manual-adjustment techniques.

They’re aided by a team of specialists that helps identify a range of issues—whether it’s mental stress caused by working too much or physical stress caused by tunneling out of a work cubicle. Naturopathic doctor Lindsey Nelson educates patients on plans for stress reduction and proper nutrition. Lori Petras, meanwhile, treats clients with acupuncture or Chinese herbs. And, using modalities such as deep-tissue, Swedish, and hot or cold-stone massage, a pair of licensed massage therapists removes tension from muscles.

The purple-railed porch running along Revolution Hair & Body Salon’s storefront is as rustic and relaxed as the ambiance inside. There, a crowd of smiles and a stash of eco-friendly products encourage complete renewal and transformation of clients’ hair, skin, and overall self-image. To stay ahead of the latest techniques, the laid-back stylists continually attend classes, filling their menu with such fetching services as highlights or GuyLites and natural-looking or bold color. They also extend their beautifying attention downward from the scalp with detoxifying facials, tanning and waxing sessions, and soothing infrared-sauna visits that help enhance circulation and thaw the frozen cavemen you found in your backyard.
