We're testing a new design in Portland, OR Metro.
It doesn't have all the bells and whistles yet,
but we want to know what you think.
If you prefer, switch to old Citysearch.

This year marks our 5th anniversary. It is truly inspiring to see the community of neighbors & friends who make Root a regular part of their life. While we've definitely gone through our growing pains, it seems our intentions & vision have never waivered, which is to provide a place for those who embrace holistic health to be still, get grounded & remember that they were born a beautiful, whole being. \nIn meditation, I sit in awe & gratitude for the quality of people we have in our community, the many teachers, healers and guides who share the same standards & intentions when they walk through our doors every day. We continue to beat our collective drum that preventative health care is not self-indulgence, but rather necessary self-care that allows one to ultimately take better care of themselves and others. Thank you for allowing us to be your resource for holistic health care. View Less …
Best Massage EVER!.
So, I purchased a 90 minute massage via GroupOn, thinking what a deal . . . but then scheduling was a bit of a challenge, and then I had to
reschedule, which Root gladly arranged, but again, the timing wasn't perfect (price for using GroupOn, I suppose). I nearly decided just to bag the whole idea. That would have been a huge mistake.
My impressions: The facility is extremely nice and relaxing. The waffle-weave robe, the flip flops, the changing room and showers, the dry sauna, the tea room--all this is totally first rate. Oh, but I was there for an intense, long-over due massage.
Ruth totally delivered--seriously the most thorough and intense massage I have had (I guess I've had 25 over the years). Ruth, thanks.
Highly highly recommend both Ruth and Root.

Take a deep breath. I live in the neighborhood and have been meaning to investigate the business and finally did by attending a Yoga Basics workshop and I am glad I did! Staff helpful, most class participation suitable for space, facility clean, and relaxing atmosphere. As a 50 year old with a desk job that doesn't exercise regularly I found the Yin and Restorative Yin classes to be approachable and not the least bit intimidating. My experience prompted me to purchase a package and to educate myself about Yoga (recommended reading Yoga Mind, Body & Spirit by Donna Farhi and Yin Yoga Outline of A quiet practice by Paul Grilley). I am taking it slow and stead View Less …
Spirit and Soul and Body at Root. Root is a place where peace and a sense of calm hits as you enter the door. After returning from Hawaii and catching a staph infection (UGH!), there was one place I knew my soul and body needed to go...Root. Outstanding massage from Ramah helped me heal. So happy they are in the neighborhood and that I can count on getting what I need! View Less …
ROOT is a treat!.
Never written a review before...never have felt motivated but after a couple of visits to ROOT WHOLE BODY I felt I discovered a big secret
worth sharing. .
A friend suggested I visit ROOT when I was suffering from plantar fasciitis. Unfortunately I can't remember the name of my therapist but she was fantastic. I experienced immediate improvement and left feeling lighter and more flexible.
After my excellent massage experience I decided to splurge on a facial. The skin care person was very gentle and after asking alot of questions treated me to a relaxing, warm facial. She also gave me some great advice on skincare. I left with an Eminence facial product that I absolutely love! IT was spendy but so worth it!
Absolutely calm, quiet, CLEAN, upscale but not overdone environment. Over the years I have been to many spas...this is much more intimate and personal than a traditional spa. No hair or nail services, ROOT provides an experience truly in a class of its own...ROOT's philosophy promotes whole body wellness.
I am definitely plan to continue to visit ROOT.

New Facial Addict. Went for my first facial ever a year or so ago - I am now an addict! The bonus part for me is the nice upper body massage that goes with it. Beautiful facility, complimentary tea in the "tea room" area and complimentary sauna available. The massages and yoga classes are also top-notch. This place is great!!!!!! View Less …
