Taproot Bodywork is the massage practice of Michelle Poirot, an 18 year veteran of massage therapy.  I specialize in couples massage classes and individual massage sessions in beautiful Tumalo, just steps from the Deschutes River.

Couples massage classes are designed to give you and your honey a new and nurturing way to connect. You’ll spend time as both a giver and receiver of relaxing massage. Together you’ll practice a back massage ‘flow’, learn to treat chronic problem areas, and get solid advice on body mechanics to keep you safe while you’re massaging. You’ll go home with the skills to give a great back massage, illustrated handouts to help you remember what you’ve learned, and a bottle of lotion to get you started.

“Michelle’s couples massage class was even better than we expected! We travelled from Portland area to Bend for a private class and it was well worth the travel and the price!

We came away from the class with a lot of new knowledge and skills we will be using at home. Michelle is personable, accessable and really makes you feel at ease.

It was such a bonding experience. Every couple should take this class. It brings you closer together and really makes you even more aware of your partner’s body and needs.” ~ Marci R.

Both classes and massage sessions are available at your convenience. Call to schedule!
