What a hidden gem in this city. If you haven't experienced the Dragontree yet, you must-- do yourself a favor. You walk in to a serene, zen-like atmosphere, with rich colors and candles everywhere, and are greeted by the sweet beautiful girls at the front desk. Last time I was there I took a moment to check out some of their retail too-- pretty neat products that fit in well with their holistic theme (thanks for suggesting the Livia cleanser, Cassie!). I've had a few different massage therapists here and all have been great. I want to recommend the abyhanga (sp?) massage-- what an experience! I really like spending time in their Sangha room, which is their communal space with big red couches, where you can receive foot massages, neck and shoulder massages, hand, etc etc... not to mention their foot baths... sigh :-)
I've frequented a number of spa's in Portland and this one definitely stands out as a beautifully unique sanctuary. I also really liked the Clearing Cafe next door (same owners of the spa) for their yummy nourishing bowls and fresh squeezed juices.
I also like to take advantage of Dragontree's monthly special packages, they're always a nice bargain for what you're getting.
So happy I have found "my" spa here in Portland.
Thanks Dragontree!
Pros: kind staff, great services, gorgeous interior
Cons: none!
