Portland Massage Therapy

Client Story

“If you’ve injured yourself, and want your life and your body back, consider seeing a great sports massage therapist. I did, and here’s my story. In January of 2002 I had the misfortune of seriously injuring myself in a skiing accident. The surgery and 4 weeks of wearing a sling left me with very little function in my arm and upper trunk. Even after 4 weeks of exceptional physical therapy I was unable to drive with both hands. I had what was termed a “frozen shoulder.“ Being a medical professional, I knew I needed additional intervention. I wanted a massage therapist specializing in sports injuries/rehabilitation. Someone who was knowledgeable about the muscles, tendons, and joints affected my injury, how to rehab mewithout doing further damage, and encouraging me to continually improve. I found that, andmuch, much more in Jamin Rak. On my first visit it took him 10 minutes to get me on themassage table, which he did without hurting me. Over the next few months he gradually butmethodically liberated my muscles and my range of motion through massage, so that 4 monthslater I was able to play golf again. Being able to do the things you love (ski-bike-golf), and dothem without pain, is a wonderful gift. It was Jamin, who gave me that gift and continues to helpme maintain my function through therapeutic massage.”

“In December of 2008, a car ran a stop sign and hit me in the driver’s seat of my car. After the ambulance and emergency room, I was on complete bedrest, muscle relaxants and pain medication for two weeks. I gradually tried to return to work, but I was limping with uncontrolled pain. Then, I began chiropractic treatments twice per week with Dr. Berntsen and massage therapy twice per week from Jamin D. Rak, LMT… Together they treated me for six months with expert and compassionate care. They restored me to a complete recovery, I now work full-time as a nurse and can fulfill all my normal responsibilities…I cannot thank them enough. They changed my life back into a full and joyful recovery after a terrible car accident.”

“After a sports injury I went and saw Jamin Rak and after one visit I was already making significant progress in my recovery. In addition to the deep tissue massage he performed some exercises I could do right at home. I made a full-recovery and I would recommend without hesitation seeing Jamin Rak for any serious injury.”

“I’ve been dealing with chronic pain after a car accident and I am finally making some improvements by treating with Jamin. I appreciate that he empowers me with knowledge and is really proactive in helping me get results. And if you have TMJ – I highly recommend Jamin – I no longer need my night guard!!!”

“Jamin is a first-class, licensed massage therapist. He listens to his clients needs and then applies his knowledge and training to provide the most effective and therapeutic massage possible. He has the ability to put his clients at ease instantly with his warm personality and his attentiveness to his clients’ needs. I have enlisted his services for sports massage, trigger point therapy, and injury recovery. He is one of the best massage therapists that I have ever seen and I would recommend him in a heartbeat”
