**Please note: As of January 2026, I now see all Rolfing clients at the Awakenings Wellness Center at 1016 SE 12th Avenue.**
Where is the Awakenings Wellness Center?
Located at 1016 SE 12th Avenue in Southeast Portland, the Awakenings Wellness Center is an old craftsman house turned practitioner space and yoga studio in the thriving commercial district of close-in southeast Portland.
Where can I park when visiting the Awakenings Wellness Center for Rolfing?
There is a retail parking lot directly across 12th avenue from the Awakenings Wellness Center. It has a blue "P" parking sign, and can be used for up to 2 hours by clients and patients of the building.
If you use the parking lot, please walk to the corner of 12th and Taylor to cross at the designated intersection. You can get away with jaywalking if you prefer, but it can be hard to see cars coming from the south so please exercise caution.
Street parking is also available in the surrounding neighborhood, just be sure to check the street signs. Anything marked for 1 hr of parking or more should suffice for your session time.
How do I get into the Awakenings Wellness Center for my session?
You will use a door code (provided by Kat in your booking confirmation email and appointment reminders) to enter the front door of the building. Please use the lower keypad (the upper keypad will not work). Enter the 4-digit code you received from Kat to enter the building from the front porch.
Don't have the keycode? Check your inbox for confirmation (sent when you booked your session) and appointment reminder emails (sent one week and two days prior to your session). The door code is listed in those emails. If you still can't find it, text Kat at 503-406-8890 on the day of your appointment and she will send you the door code.
Where do I wait for Kat once I'm in the building?
Please make yourself comfortable in the lobby seating area (the first room that you enter from the porch). Kat will come collect you when it's time for your session. If you're running late, send Kat a text to let her know when you've arrived (503-406-8890) and she will come fetch you.
Please note: the lobby area is immediately adjacent to two practitioner spaces, and we ask all clients who are waiting to keep noise to a minimum. If you need to take a call you are welcome to exit to the porch while on the phone then use the same key code to let yourself back in.
Where are the restrooms in the Awakenings building?
There are two restrooms available for use in the Awakenings Wellness Center (no key required, use them as needed!):
There is a restroom on the first floor which you can use while you wait for your session to start. To find it, walk towards the back of the house and enter the kitchen After passing the refrigerator turn left and you will find the first floor restroom. If you enter the yoga studio, you've gone too far.
There is also a restroom on the second floor for you to use during your session (or if the first floor restroom is in use while you wait). To find it, climb the stairs from the lobby, and once on the second floor turn to your right and you will find the restroom.
Is the Awakenings Wellness Center ADA accessible?
Unfortunately the Awakenings Wellness Center is not ADA accessible. Clients must be able to navigate stairs in order to see Kat for Rolfing at her clinic. If you have mobility issues and cannot navigate stairs, please schedule a Rolfing consult call to discuss other options for receiving care.
