Aloft Massage is a massage practice in Portland, Oregon focused on bodywork for persistent muscular tension, chronic discomfort, and physically restorative relief. Its work is especially associated with Ashiatsu, a gravity-assisted barefoot massage technique that uses overhead bars for balance to deliver deeper, broader pressure through the feet. This wider, more padded contact allows substantial pressure to be applied in a controlled, gentle way, making it well suited to contracted and overworked areas. The practice also incorporates Swedish massage and deep tissue work, combining firm pressure, slow strokes, and broad contact in an approach centered on depth, control, and effective muscular release. Treatments are directed toward concerns such as neck and upper back stiffness, low back pain, tight leg muscles, sore shoulders, and other chronic aches.
