About Jordan

Thirty years ago, Jordan began working with people in addiction recovery — learning early that the body holds what the mind hasn't processed yet. That understanding has shaped everything since: the clinical work, program and service development at Canyon Ranch, and eventually education leadership at the Oregon School of Massage.

What you experience at Myopothecary is the result of years of quiet listening. That personal engagement makes each session unlike anything a standard massage can offer — skilled, present, and genuinely responsive to what your body is saying. More.

Membership

The clients who experience the most lasting change are the ones who come back. Myopothecary membership secures your recurring sessions each month, extends savings on additional services, and keeps you connected to the consistent care your body will come to rely on.

  • somatic Nidra meditation guided nervous system relief

    Soma Nidra

    Nidra is a meditative form of yoga. Yoga Nidra, or yogic sleep, is a state of consciousness between waking and sleeping, typically induced by a guided meditation. This may be added to the end of any service or received on its own. (Sanskrit: योग निद्रा, Yoga Nidra)

    Myopothecary’s adaptation of this ancient practice is a guided journey including sound healing (solfeggio frequencies), massage, craniosacral, aromatherapy and polarity therapies designed to instill peace, balance, healing and preparation for achieving one’s goals. Your session is spent resting on the massage table, with various contact points including abdomen, occipital base, upper torso, and feet.
