I’m am blown away by Duchess, she provided more than the most beautiful cut I’ve ever gotten. I feel like a new woman. Duchess provides more than just a cut, I felt so taken care of and heard. She has it all beauty , grace , KNOWLEDGE , creativity, empathy, humor and a kindness I haven’t experienced that full package in a long time. I feel so lucky to have crossed paths with such a unique and one of a kind person.
If you are looking to feel revitalized and gorgeous go to Duchess! You will not regret it. Mahalo mahalo mahalo!!! ???
Have had great services from previous and current owner. I recommend for others who prefer to have others pick up their garbage rather than hauling to the dump (transfer station), used to do this when had a truck. The charge is reasonable and gives me back time on the weekend. I have had no billing issues.
So stoked with my Polynesian chest piece that chewy (Eric paredes) did for me a few weeks ago!! Homie took the time to let me tell him exactly how I wanted it and made changes every time I asked with no complaints lol... I was definitely probably annoying him but he did a awesome job and I'll be going back every time I have a new idea! Hope he can put up with me again!!
Heather came to me for hair extensions and was soooo adorable I decided to try tooth gems! She did a great job and I am now addicted to tooth gems!! Thanks so much!
I've been a regular customer for over a year and strongly recommend this place especially Lily. The lash extensions are applied so well that my natural lashes remain intact. The extensions last about a month, and they feel so natural that I hardly feel them on and I frequently receive compliments from others.
Over the past 10-plus years, Tony has been very responsive to our family's plumbing needs. In addition to always being very professional, he takes a personal interest in his clients. He gets to know them, which enables him to prioritize his work so those in the greatest need are served as soon as possible. He sets a standard of honest, ethical, and competent service I wish all other local plumbers would adopt. I highly recommend you give him a try. JC
My husband came across this shop while looking for a place to cut his hair. Conveniently it's located 3 mins away from SCP Hilo Hotel & takes walk ins. He's never asked me to write a review, so I knew the service had to be excellent. The shop was busy but he walked out in less than 30 mins. Debbie the owner gave him a fresh haircut & trimmed his beard. He explained she runs the shop along with her daughter. Debbie was friendly, welcoming & professional, suggesting a different style which he loved.
Malama Auto Detailing did a great job on our Toyota Tacoma that needed pretty extensive paint correction work. Trustworthy, good communication throughout the process, and good attention to detail - the truck looks as good as new!
Joining this Halau has been a life dream and at 73 never thought I could, but I did and when entering the Halau and saying the prayer my heart went back to my youth and the dream. Kumu is amazing and all the dancers are hard workers and care deeply for their practice. If you are interested in being of Hawaii's culture and learn and work out this is the place to go. Check out the website and let them know you want to go. I came down sick for a bit and they still included me to return when better. Aloha Nui Loa to the Halau for their mana and healing work for me.
Alvin and his crew built my new gravel driveway quickly and did an excellent job. Great communication all the way. I'm very happy the way everything turned out.
Removed ceiling fans and installed new light fixtures. The boys were on time fast and efficient. They were professional. The work done was exactly how I wanted it to be done. Very pleased with their work. Also the boys were very respectful pleasant!Services: Remodeling
Heather is an amazing stylist who takes time to evaluate her clients's hair before cutting and styling. She walks you through each step of your style, cut, and color , and gives you simple instructions for styling your hair at home. She's a wonderful lady, and really listens, all for a fair price.
Laura is the best hair stylist I have ever gone to and I found my girl to take care of my hair from here on out.
I drove from Kona to Hilo to find someone that specializes in curly hair and she did such an amazing job!
I haven't had my hair professionally cut in 7 years and asked for her to cut the dead away and help my curls come back. She's very professional and friendly and extremely knowledgeable about all hair. Any question I asked she happily answered and she taught me how to take care and style my hair at home. I've never been able to so easily achieve the curls I have today and I'm so beyond happy with my hair. I have received countless compliments weeks after getting the haircut and I can't wait to go back.
My first visit to Studio 58 in downtown Hilo was great. My stylist was Manny and I had a shampoo, haircut and blow out/curl. I'm a kupuna with very thin hair past my shoulders. He listened carefully to what I wanted. I have been trying to find a good salon in Hilo for a while now since Kathy Romero, who did my hair since 1990, retired. I've been getting my hair done when I travel to Honolulu and that's not as often as my hair needs attention. Now I can trust in Studio 58 as my place and Manny as my stylist. Prices are very reasonable. Check them out!! I believe you will be very happy you did.

Went to Valerie’a salon and got a hair cut from her colleague Shona (not quite sure of the name). Had a great time, nice hair cut and lively discussions! Greetings all the way from France!
Unko Kimo is a whole vibe. His skills and years of expertise shine in everything he does. The prices are incredibly reasonable for such amazing quality! I Happily give them 5 stars AND WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO EVERYONE!
They just opened up a few spots, and I jumped on it and got an appointment for my boys with them! The sweetest couple ever ? Side note: When they open up bookings, I highly recommend you jump on it and stay in the loop! They book out for the year very quickly! DnA are the best in East Hawaii from 2019 and current, and their rates are UNDERpriced! You're paying around the same as supercuts, but with PHENOMENAL service! IF YOU GET THE CHANCE TO BE A CLIENT TO THIS FAMILY ORIENTED AND LOCALLY OWNED BUSINESS, TAKE THAT OPPORTUNITY!
Requested style: He can pretty much do anything. Just let them know what you prefer.
Specialities: Dysen is very talented- Specializes in many different styling techniques! A fan-favorite is his awesome designs many clients request.
Hair type: My boys both have two different hair types. Dysen was able to accommodate both of their requests with OUTSTANDING results!
I just luv my hairdresser. I'm so glad to meet up with her again. Thank you so much Denise Akiyama-Sakoda. Also catching up with memories, classmate Selene. Luv the atmosphere.

We've been to a few barbers this side of the island and they all did not work out. So glad we finally found a barber that was able to cut my son's hair to what he envisioned. Tati knows what she's doing. She's super personable and sweet too.
The staff is nice in conversational. The prices are fair. And the Atmosphere is pleasant. My nails turned out super cute, and she was very careful with my cuticles (My last nail lady was not). The lady who did my nails was very patient with my indecisiveness lol.
Pandemic woe service, yes! At the right moment, celebrating masklessness today the achievement of waxing was well earned, and graciously given. Thank you, Spa Envy
I got cat eye eyelash extensions and they turned out AMAZING! Everything was very neat and clean and I loved the wonderful women in there, everyone was very nice and polite. I would definitely come back again and recommend my friends too!!
Received an express pedicure with gel polish. The service was great! Friendly people and competitive prices. Vivian did a great job on my pedi, I wish I could go to her all the time!
Next to KTA, 50 E Puainako St Ste. 104, Hilo Hawaii 96720
MAHALO to our technicians Tran & Lee today 2/16/24. My bf and I flew to Hilo, HI for our traditional Valentine weekend celebration. We always stop at KTA to purchase groceries, and Maile's Nail Salon is right next to it. Our 1st time walking in and happen to ask if the ladies could take us. They said 'yes', and we were so grateful. They were so nice and accommodating. We had the Delux Pedi, which included a lot of extra time on the lower leg massage, exfoliating scrub, menthol lotion, and following that, the HOT TOWEL.... Sooooo relaxing and invigorating! It is a MUST try. They charged $50 for this service, and it was well worth it!
Let me say first that linda does a great job. She took her time and the results were just what I wanted. The salon itself is nothing special and I question how sanitary it is.
Awesome, relaxing experience. I rarely get my nails done. And when I do, I want to thoroughly enjoy the visit. They did a wonderful job! I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town.
I made a mistake and tried press-on nails for the first time. After doing everything I could to take them off at home, a trip to another salon, I went here. They took me right before closing. Hanh was extremely patient with me, checking to make sure I was okay, got them off quickly with no pain and it wasn't expensive. Life saver. She took extra steps to file my nails afterwards and they look better than they did before I put on the nails, so thankful
I had such a wonderful experience here! Shannda is so detail-oriented and really cared about what I wanted. She is such a kind, talented stylist. I am so grateful I found this business and highly recommend it
Always a pleasure working with Janice...I don't see her often enough! But when I do, I'm happy with the haircut and scalp massage during shampooing . She really helped my thick curly hair and has a nice variety of products to help control the frizz. Thank you Janice!!
7/29/23: Went to Hilo Shopping Center, to Jin Ju Hair Salon, & saw the talented hair stylist, "Aunty Chang"! (In the past, while my mom lived with me, my mom INSISTED that I bring her ONLY to, Jin Ju Salon!; which I happily & dutifully did). Now these days, I'm going there, regularly ?. Aunty Chang, is THE BEST!?❤️Service: Haircut

I always enjoy going to Macy’s in Hilo, they’re nice, friendly and helpful especially the girls in the beauty section. I always buy Clinique, Estee Lauder or Shiseido products. They are very informative of the new products that come out. thank you so much for always making my visit special.❣️
A salon with ALOHA! Arlene and her colleagues are full of laughter, which is combined with thier awesome talent, ensure clients satisfaction. Safety an added plus! Kudos to all!
I truly enjoyed body massage. Atsuko is great and she has high massage skills. Also she has great hospitality manors. I highly recommend Ola Tropical Apothecary &Spa

The place to go in Hilo for pampering and relaxation! Kaylee did a phenomenal job providing my mom and I with an amazing “Goddess” spa treatment - facials and a foot scrub. The facial left my sensitive skin feeling refreshed and hydrated, and not irritated at all. The spa package even includes a skin care product - so worth it! I enjoyed this experience so much and felt confident in Kaylee’s professionalism that I came back for a full legs wax. I was amazed how the wax was nearly painless and again, my sensitive skin was hardly irritated. Kaylee was so thoughtful and attentive during the entire appointment and gave me great pointers for aftercare. Thank you, Mermade Spa!
Holy relaxation!! Olivia was so beyond awesome! She is quite talented at what she does. She uses high quality (and incredible smelling..) products to help cleanse and restore your skin. My facial with her was wonderfully relaxing and the accompanying massage was much needed. Olivia has magical hands, lovely energy and a wonderful little spa set up! Don't sleep on this refreshing, highly soothing experience. If you are looking for a solid facial, she will take expert care of you!
Absolutely the best. I called last minute as I desperately needed a pedicure. They were so kind on the phone and accommodating. The pedicure was delightful and the place is so lovely. Brand new everything! New massage chairs were wonderful and helped my aches. My nail tech was so sweet and kind to me, I almost started crying in gratitude. This is a wonderful place and I feel so nurtured. I'll be back!
Ekela’s healing spa is so wonderful! It’s welcoming, relaxing and clean. I had the most amazing experience today! I had Naomi she’s amazing. Thank you so much for your gift in making me feel better. Her energy is amazing!! I walked in with sciatica & stress on my shoulders, Now it’s all gone. I feel renewed, relaxed, happy again. I’m ready for whatever God has in stored for my accomplishments. Again thank you Naomi!! May God continue to bless you in all your gifts.
I’ve been going to The Honey Pot Hilo to see Srita for waxing and facials for many years because she is simply the best. Her facials are so relaxing, and I always leave with my skin glowing. She brings a wide variety of services for people of all skin types to Hilo, and carries top notch products. Some of my favorite facials are her oxygen facials and her microcurrent facials…but I also can’t wait to try a hydrafacial and/or a dermaplane facial in the future! She is truly amazing and is such comforting personality to be around. Too many good things to say about Srita! I definitely recommend her to anyone.
Amazing experience. Mike is a phenomenal artist and a cool dude. He brings great energy and aloha vibes. Absolutely stoked on my tattoo. 10/10. Would recommend
Requested style: Mike took my idea and designed an amazing piece of art.
Wonderful experience. The only place to get pierced professionally in Hilo and well worth it. Tristan knows what he is doing and is so friendly and down to earth. A friend of mine has also had multiple beautiful tattoos done by him and I highly recommend. Great, impeccably clean and inviting space.
Love how she did my tattoo she took her time and she was patient with me and kept asking me if I was okay I love my tattoo she did for me I might go back
I had a great experience at South Seas. I walked in and Lex was able to tattoo me the next day. I wanted to get a tattoo of a native bug species and she worked with me to pick out the Koa bug, endemic to Hawai’i. She was so kind to me and my family and I will never forget the experience.

Love the quality and service provided! I felt at home and was treated very kindly by John and his wife Rae. The atmosphere was relaxing and the "talk story" was great!
I am thrilled with the experience I had at Tattoo Valor. I am on a Hawaiian cruise for my birthday, my 25th wedding anniversary, and Valentine’s Day, and we were stopping in Hilo for only 8 hours. I have been to Hilo before, so I didn’t need to go on any of the ship excursions, so I decided this would be the perfect time to get a tattoo to commemorate the trip. However, I had not booked an appointment anywhere. Tattoo Valor was the only tattoo parlor that actually answered their phone and they were able to get me in the next day and accommodate my schedule, allowing me to make it back to my ship in plenty of time. I communicated with Pak the evening before my appointment, and sent him pictures of flowers that I liked, and colors that I liked, as well as a few tattoos that I liked. I asked him to make me an anklet tattoo. We discussed the details of the tattoo and also the timing of when we would be able to be there and what time we needed to be finished in order to make it back to the boat. Pak was very helpful and let me know that he would be able to take care of me and make my vision come true and get me done in time to get back to my boat before “all aboard time”. When we got to Tattoo Valor in the morning, Pak already had my tattoo drawn up for me, and was ready to go! He did an amazing job with the details of the flowers and the vines and got the colors and shading spot on to what I was asking for! I am so glad that Pak did my Hawaiian vacation tattoo! The experience was amazing and now I have a beautiful tattoo to remind me of these beautiful islands!
Had a great time with Sonny. We were laughing the whole time. He made me feel comfortable and my tattoo came out amazing. He is so awesome.!! I'll be back! ♥️
This is the only place I get tattooed, I've been going there for 3 years the artist are amazing and very compassionate and humble. They have tattooed my dad, myself, my husband and my daughter.
Noah did such an excellent job that I got to learn a little bit more about the do’s and don’ts about kitchen plumbing. So Akamai!!
Mahalo Olivia for having an awesome and professional Crew! ? ? ? #byebyeclog #happycustomer
Sebastian and Jeff helped this old guy out with a hot water heater installation in a very professional manner. Also, their prices are very fair compared to some of the scammers out there.

EP&S responded to our situation very quickly.. they sent a technician named CHANCE, he addressed several issues we may have and went right to work. He displayed the knowledge and professionalism we were expecting and exceeded that.. Thank you.!!!

Z's Electric recently worked with C4 Pools and Masonry in the electric portion and equipment install of our pool build. John was extremely professional and skilled. He was communicative and genuinely went out of his way to ensure the job was done right. I would seek his assistance in any future project and highly recommend his company to others... Mahalo
I have been building houses for 30 years, so I have had a lot of experiences with electricians (mostly negative). We have hired Ross for three jobs in the last year. I have to say that, hands down, he is the best electrician that we have ever worked with. Extremely knowledgeable, professional and courteous.
Had Kyle come out to install a whole house fan, can’t recommend him enough. He was professional, showed up on time, and did incredible work. Had him install the fan, 3 vents, and the switch/ timer and it all came out flawless. Can not recommend him enough and will continue to use his services from here on out. Don’t mind the gecko warming up on the vents in the last photo lol
I met with Scott to obtain a bid for a house I will be building. Very friendly professional meeting. Once I provided Scott the plans he responded quickly with a very detailed description of what was and not covered in his proposal. I would make Scott at Yamamoto Electrical Services on of my first stops.

Had to have my whole circuit breaker and antennas replaced. This place was the only one who would come out on such short notice, and believe me I called a lot of people before someone recommended them.
Pono and gang did an awesome job installing my new Ultimate Off-Grid system, the SolArk has been running beautifully. Very knowledgeable and willing to show and explain what I was seeing. Even got my beast of a generator tied in and running on auto.
Sachi was soooo unbelievabley helpful during my small businesses time of need and throughout a very stressful situation she was consistently calm and very responsive and reached out with any new information immediately. The experience with this company was above and beyond what customer service generally looks like and feels like these days! 1 million stars to them, especially Sachi!!!!!!!
After going through a major health issue which left me with very little energy to do regular household chores, I turned to Aloha Maiden Services for help. April was very helpful in guiding my husband and myself in the best way to upkeep our 30+-year-old home. We downsized by giving away a lot of things we had new use for. Her ladies helped move stuff out of our home which was a huge help. Aloha Maiden started by giving our home a thorough cleaning from top to bottom. It was so nice to wake up the following morning to a shiny, sparkling home. We are grateful to April and her ever-cheerful and helpful cleaning crew for helping us maintain our home that my husband built. We highly recommend Aloha Maiden Services. They are great to work with, efficient in their job and prompt. Mahalo ladies.
They built me a beautiful walk-in pantry. Always on time and accomadating me for all my wishes, I was very please with the work . I would definitely use them in future.
Kapono and Henry were so amazing with our remodel. They were so speedy and helpful during such a stressful time! We could not have gotten our projects done without them. Incredibly thankful for them!!Services: Paint indoors
Clint's work is absolutely beautiful, and his integrity is impeccable. If you're looking for a builder who takes obvious pride in his work, and treats people with respect and honesty, look no further.
Mitch and his team tented an Association of 8 buildings last week. The team arrived early each day and consistently demonstrated professionalism and friendliness. They were well-organized, clearly understood the scope of the project, and coordinated tasks efficiently. The tenting process was executed smoothly, with two buildings handled at a time, and the entire property was completed within a week.
A special acknowledgment goes to Mitch, whose expertise helped prevent a potential inadvertent fumigation of a neighboring building by identifying a shared electrical conduit line. His attention to detail and quick thinking were instrumental in avoiding a serious issue.
I was initially scheduled for fumigation with another company, but the wait was almost a year out! I called Pacific Termite (Veteran's Termite) and they were able to schedule fumigation earlier. There were a few glitches initially with getting the estimate (person didn't show up when scheduled, but I suspect it was because the person couldn't find my house and the phone number was incorrect....communication with the person at the office who took my call was also lacking). However, Kandy (who followed up with scheduling, etc) was AWESOME and very responsive to emails/calls.
First class! From receptionist to technician. Friendly, knowledgeable, professional and very effective. I could not be more pleased with the treatment Will Kill Termites & Pest provided. The price is unbeatable. There service is guaranteed. Look no further. They are located in Hilo so appointment times are easy and flexible. The technician showed up at the exact time he said he would. First Class!
Excellent service! the boys know what they’re doing. In The Quality of mowing my yard I could see big experience behind it, Kyle was very polite and help me with some suggestions about pruning and his partner Leroy offer extra help, I would recommend Eco Landscape to anyone, Best landscape company on the Big island
Dr. Santiago is gentle. He is also kind and has given me valuable advice that has improved my dental health. The dental assistants are great. Highly recommend.
Called to set up an appointment. He was extremely kind and humble. His prices are the cheapest I’ve seen in the entire US, but there’s no skimp on quality. It is clear that the cares for the well-being of his patients.
The care is top Tier!!! Piper is my acupuncturist and my massage therapist is Ta'apai and dear goodness when I tell you that when I go in I feel like it's the one thing in my life were someone cares for my wellbeing and I feel so heard and treated with the most care and respect ever. I for sure recommend this place to anyone who been in wrecks or have chronic fatigue or illnesses mental disabilities. The best care all in one space they also do chiropractic! Check it out they treat Veterans!!!
Since moving to the island in having to find new doctors and other necessities. I found Dr. Hilton at Hilo Chiropractor clinic and he is awesome. He is gentle and he gives you the results. The receptionist is awesome. She takes care of your insurance. Definitely will be my chiropractor for this island.

My neck was so messed up I couldn’t turn it for a week. I’m usually so scared of the chiropractor especially with my neck because like my life flashes before my eyes when they crack it but Dr. Cain made me feel so safe and comfortable but also could be a stand up comedian he made me laugh so hard and it took all my anxiety away. I also did some heat therapy and that helped so much. I came back for a follow up and was back in action all better. I was able to heal and I wish I still was on the big island so I could go back when I need it because I trust this man with my delicate spine. 10/10 do recommend.
This review is strictly for Linda Smith the Reiki Master who works out of Klein Wellness Center. I had originally found Linda about two years ago when I was looking specifically for a Reiki Master to work on me. I had researched and found out that the location of Klein Wellness Center was the original home and Reiki center of Mrs. Hawayo Takata. This was very impressive to me so I called them to see if they still offered Reiki and was then introduced to Linda. I didn't know at the time that Linda was new to the island and was just starting up at Klein. And I have had amazing results working with her and have continued to go back every month for a Reiki session. The center itself is an historic home transformed into a chiropractic office. The rooms are comfortable, but not soundproof. The receptionists are more clinical than friendly. But I am not here to see them so I just go with it. If you are looking for a Reiki master, I highly recommend Linda. She is highly attuned.
They provide an amazing community service. But also, provide great medical care & seem to really care about each animal they see, whether they are a pet or a stray.
The staff, from the receptionists to the vet techs to the doctors, are friendly and gentle with our pets. They never make us wait when we arrive for our appointments, and it's great they are open on Saturdays.
Brought a stray kitten in to be seen for an injured paw. Staff was able to accommodate an appointment quickly. I found the staff to be very knowledgeable and compassionate. I have since come back for immunizations and spay procedure. Love this group, highly recommend
I have had the pleasure of being a client of Malia Lyons for 14 years. While still at her previous employment Dr.Lyons assisted, supported and compassionately cared for my soul dog Guardian. Dr. Lyons was straightforward throughout his entire battle till the day he took his last breath in my arms. I transferred to Aloha Vet upon hearing Dr. Lyons was moving there. Aloha Vet has shown my family nothing but utmost respect, support and compassion from their receptionists, vet techs, pharmacists, specialist and Veterinarians. The care they have shown to my babies has been absolutely amazing. I’m grateful for the team at Aloha Vet and the care they shown my babies. Thank you so very much Aloha Vet for your wonderful services.
Amy and Zeisja are the absolutely best! They are professional, friendly and super helpful. Callie absolutely loves them both and I appreciate them so much! I cannot recommend them enough. Simply the best!
Excellent!! Our lillypop is a rescue and a bit nervous and they were absolutely Wonderful with her. Lilly loves them, and you can sit there with your doggie baby ???❤
Yoga Centered is the real deal, and the energy there is always excellent! Molly is an amazing teacher, and even though I am new to classes I am easily able to follow her cues without even looking, because she will verbally articulate every movement description smoothly so you know what to do next, as well as remind you where to focus so you do it properly and with best results. I also have been absolutely LOVING the Barre classes! I have been wanting to try one for almost 10 years and finally went. They are low impact, perfect for my whiplash injury and focus on building core/legs/glutes which I feel is super important as I age. The teachers I have encountered there so far are all such great quality and many have decades of experience.
Yoga Centered is unique in the diversity and quality of their classes. There is truly something for everyone here. it's a beautiful, welcoming space for practice. I particularly enjoy the range of offerings, and the authenticity and excellence of the teachers. No matter where you are on your life's journey, Yoga Centered is there to facilitate your growth. Highly recommend.
One of the best massages I've had in years! Vanessa was wonderful communicating with during the massage to make sure I was having the best experience. My body feels so light! I will definitely be back for another one!
Adele's ability to intuitively tap into your neuromuscular system and CNS is enough to make her one of the best massage therapists, period. She has helped to heal more than just my injuries as a strength athlete; she has helped me calm my overactive nervous system more times than I can count. She has had me feeling like I could breathe deeply without fear clinging onto my tendons and fibers. Adele has been an integral part of my wellness routine in both mind and body as someone who is neurodivergent (ADHD). If you need help unmasking injuries and dysfunction in your body, she is the best of the best and WILL find the issue with a curious and kind hand. She has helped my healing process and guided my muscles back to functionality from my head to my toes (including reinjured sites). If you need help with emotional/nervous system regulation, she is still the best of the best. Every session is a reset; I couldn't recommend her more. ♡
I had been looking for a place to get a truly relaxing massage and White Ginger Healing was just the place to go. Howard is professional andan amazing masseuse. Having gone through a loss, I had been having a lot of trouble sleeping. From the very first visit that night, I had the best sleep I've had in years, and my sleep has improved tremendously. Howard will work with you with whatever is ailing your body. Truly a gifted masseuse.
Banyan Massage Hale offers the best massages and bodywork on the island. I've gone to many places throughout the island in the last 5 years and this is the place that I always want to come back to. Booking is easy and convenient and can be done over the phone or online. The setting is private and peaceful and all of their therapists are amazing. I've worked with Anne and Melissa for Ashiatsu and Lomilomi(both attentive and amazing), Jarica for acupuncture and cupping, and have been working with Victoria since June. Victoria is also an esthetician who offers a beautiful blend of deep tissue, ashiatsu, Thai massage, and gives amazing face massages. I'm looking forward to my appointment this afternoon and can't recommend this place enough!
We got the best massage from Zander. He did massage for my husband and myself, one after another. He's so knowledgable about body, muscles and focussed on areas that were problematic. He spent time explaning issues and what he's doing. Overall the experience, ambience and his service was just the best: he's such a compassionate person, full of healing energy. He went out of the way after he found out that it was our last day in Hilo, not just he spent extra time on us, he also shared lot of videos so we can continue the healin at home by practicing good postures and techniques. Highly recommend him, he's just the best?? Aloha & Mahalo Z??
This was my first time getting a massage, and I was feeling pretty apprehensive. I'm used to my muscle tightness going away on its own, but when my neck pain wouldn’t let up, a friend recommended Nancy. Nancy was able to fit me in within two days, and her warm, inviting nature immediately put me at ease. I booked a 60-minute medical massage focused on the pain in my neck and shoulder. Her experience was clear in every movement. When asked, she was able to tell me exactly which muscle group she was targeting and why. The results were almost immediate—my pain went from a 7 down to a 2. I highly recommend.
My 1st visit to this awesome place. It's been a long time since I treated myself to a massage. I so needed one as I've felt worn out from work etc. Sophia was awesome almost put me to sleep. Felt relaxed and rejuvenated! Highly recommended! Clean, relaxing and professional with great hands! Will be back again. Mahalos
I had an exceptional experience at Unwind Therapies with Laura. Not only did she showcase a strong understanding of her craft, but she also took the initiative to inquire about my personal needs and preferences. This personalized approach truly set her apart and made me feel valued as a client. I highly recommend Laura for her expertise and genuine care for her clients' well-being. Thank you, Laura, for a truly rejuvenating experience.
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Awakening Hilo Massage, and I can confidently say it was one of the best self-care experiences I've ever had! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that instantly put me at ease. The soothing music and calming scents created a perfect environment for relaxation. The therapist, Eika, was incredibly skilled and attentive. After a brief consultation, she tailored the session to address my specific needs, focusing on areas where I held tension. Her expertise was evident as they seamlessly blended different techniques, ensuring that I felt both relaxed and rejuvenated throughout the session. I loved the attention to detail, from the comfortable treatment table to the soft lighting that enhanced the overall experience. If you're looking for a local massage therapist who combines professionalism with genuine care, I highly recommend Awakening Hilo Massage. Whether you're seeking relief from stress or simply want to indulge in some well-deserved pampering, you won't be disappointed. I left feeling lighter, more relaxed, and already planning my next visit!
During my first visit with Aaron Ishigo for acupuncture, I was so amazed that my mobility and pain in my left shoulder area severely decreased almost instantly. The treatment was painless and very efficient. I will definitely return and continue to come here for future shoulder pain maintenance and care. The environment was friendly and welcoming as a first time patient.
I went from the advice of two friends and my husband, and boy, am I glad I listened! I had acupuncture for the 1st time, and a massage and adjustment. It was really soothing and it worked like magic! I was a little sore the next day, so I rested, but next day, I could tell from my home workout, that I didn’t “click” like I had, and I felt stronger and “back to normal”. What a gift. I am so pleased with Robbie’s work and want to tell the world! What a fabulous thing to feel so good after one session.
My husband & I both have gotten so much musculoskeletal pain relief without medication. Both of us back pain resolved, my wrist & forearm pain resolved.
Ruthie is amazing. She diagnosed several different issues going on with my upper back and shoulder and provided immediate pain relief and strategies to tackle them all. I am grateful for her expertise and knowledge, attention and presence... and sense of humor! Ruthie is expert at what she does so if you have never had acupuncture before this is the place to go and if you have, this is still the place to go.
