Kahuna & Mana Massage in Honolulu delivers expert Lomilomi and Shiatsu treatments that melt tension and restore balance after adventurous days on Oahu. Discover a healing experience shaped by local tradition and skilled care.
Situated in the vibrant heart of Honolulu, Kahuna & Mana Massage offers a serene retreat for travelers seeking deep relaxation through traditional Hawaiian Lomilomi and Japanese Shiatsu massage therapies. Honolulu’s urban energy contrasts with the calming ritual awaiting visitors on the eighth floor of a discreet Waikiki building, where the clinic's quiet interior emphasizes comfort and professional care.
Lomilomi massage, an indigenous Hawaiian practice, uses fluid, sweeping strokes with the hands and forearms to relieve muscle tension and improve circulation, echoing the rhythm of the island waves. Kahuna & Mana’s therapists bring this ancient art to life with personalized attention, tailoring pressure and technique to soothe both body and mind. Alternatively, Shiatsu focuses on acupressure points to balance energy flow and alleviate specific areas of pain or stiffness.
This blend of Eastern and Polynesian healing traditions distinguishes Kahuna & Mana as a rare find in Honolulu’s wellness offerings. Reviewers highlight the therapists’ skill in customizing each session and creating a nurturing atmosphere that immediately dissipates stress from traveling or outdoor adventures.
Beyond being a restorative stop after hiking the lush trails of Oahu or surfing Waikiki’s famous breaks, it's a chance to connect with a local cultural practice rooted in intentional touch and respect for the body’s natural healing.
Located just minutes from Waikiki Beach and downtown Honolulu, bookings here fit seamlessly into an active island itinerary. Whether recovering from a day on the trails or preparing for a long flight home, Kahuna & Mana Massage invites visitors to slow down and reset with therapies deeply embedded in the island’s heritage. This calm embrace in Hawaii’s energetic capital offers more than relief—it is an essential part of the island experience.
