About Dana Garscia
I’m a licensed massage therapist and acupuncturist in the state of Oregon.
I initially became fascinated by the mind-body connection after enrolling in a Kundalini yoga course during my Freshman year at the University of Oregon. This fascination inspired me to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Human Physiology.
Before graduating, I attended a six-week study abroad program in India, where I observed several alternative healthcare systems, including Ayurvedic and Tibetan medicine. I continued my dive into integrative medicine by completing Lane Community College’s Massage Therapy Program in 2018 and earning my Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine in 2022 from Oregon College of Oriental Medicine (OCOM).
I completed clinical internships at the Legacy Pain Clinic, treating patients suffering from chronic and complex pain disorders, and at FORA Health, supporting patients on their path to addiction recovery.
Over the years, I’ve gained experience working with various musculoskeletal complaints and am particularly interested in jaw, neck, and shoulder issues. I also enjoy working with digestive disorders, insomnia, menstrual pain, and much more.
I currently offer massage and acupuncture and enjoy combining other modalities, such as cupping, gua sha, and infrared light therapy.
I believe in the transformative power of stillness and that within these quiet moments, the mind and body come back into alignment, and self-healing can occur.
I focus on cultivating a space that invites you to slow down, unwind, and tune in.

“I received a gift certificate from my husband for a massage with Dana. She was recommended to him by my daughter-in-law. I had experienced massage in the past but never had this much lasting relief from muscle soreness and pain. Thank you Dana for your expertise!” -Kim Ohnemus
“The release of tension in my muscles after a massage from Dana has been very valuable; I find that I have more energy and can accomplish more on a daily basis. The results have been cumulative, and have increased as I’ve included regular massages to my life.” -Keith Baich
