More than a year after a disappointing experience with Rachel, thought to give this place another shot since I had a gift card; AND Carole is now definitely a reason for me to go for more massages. She is an artist with powerful hands, beautiful and meaningful moves! Her massage relaxed me so much that I even almost dosed off a few times during the massage which is unbelievable! She is awesome and sweet.

My husband and I have had several massages here, and they are always AMAZING. Devon and Eva are both really skilled and make you feel like a new person, and really listen to what you need and what youre comfortable with. This was our first massage since COVID started and we felt very safe, everyone wore masks and the rooms were very clean with air filters running. Will definitely be back!

I had no idea how much a massage could alleviate my stressors of the last six months. It has brought me back to life. I desperately needed a reprieve from these uncertain times. Im realizing now: I cant just hideaway and not live my life anymore.Not to mention - everyone here has amazing technique. I had Diana today who was thoughtful, knowledgeable, and really perceptive of what clients want.In short, Im adding massage back into my life. It is necessary for me now more so than ever before. Thank you very much, Ohana.

I had Melanie for a deep tissue massage and she did amazing work. I thought I was going to wait two months before I schedule another visit but I think Im going back again in a month. Best massage experience I have had.

This was the best massage I’ve ever received. I left feeling relaxed and rejuvenated and just ready to conquer my day. I highly recommend Eva! She is so great at making you feel welcomed, important, and has the healing touch of calming stressed muscles. Eva thank you so much! You are really great at what you do!

Personally, I’m managing joint, muscular and back issues, and Ohana personnel has truly been a Godsend in assisting me in maintaining good balance in my life. Plus, I’ve been able to avoid surgery for a pinched nerve due to my treatments. Natalie, my massage therapist, is truly beyond compare. She listens and attends to what I need during each appointment. And there is a whole family at Ohana, reminding me consistently about the importance of self-care. I highly recommend Ohana! Thank you Ohana for the many years of your caring service and here’s to many more! Aloha!

Great place, very friendly staff. This was my first massage, and I wanted to get one done because of knots in my back and shoulders. By the time I left i felt amazing! Well worth it!

I had a wonderful massage at Ohana with Carole! The space itself is so welcoming, along with the staff. You walk in and feel an amazing energy, and are immediately greeted by friendly faces. Carole was very accommodating and helped tremendously with the tension in my upper back. I highly recommend Ohana Wellness!

Scheduled here because so saw there were so many good reviews and I was not disappointed! I ended up missing emails that my appointment has been canceled due to the massage therapist being sick, so I still showed up. Upon showing up they made every effort to have someone squeeze me in and I ended up having a fantastic experience with Gloria! Everyone was super nice and welcoming from the minute I got there until the moment I left. I already scheduled another appointment. Thanks for taking the stress out literally and figuratively!

Loved this place! Highly recommending for anyone looking for a relaxing and engaging environment. All of the staff are super friendly and down to earth. Their customer service is by far the best Ive ever seen. As far as my massage went bridgette was amazing!! We had an awesome conversation and she was giving just the right amount of pressure to loosen up the knots that I had in my neck and back. Thank you all so much!

This is by far the best massage I have ever received! From the moment I walked into Ohana Wellness to the moment I left I was relaxed. I loved the ambience of the receptionist area where I checked in and my massage room. I got a prenatal massage from Carol and it was by far the best massage I have ever received, pregnant and not pregnant. She focused on my problem areas and did just the right amount of pressure. I loved it so much I already have my appointment booked to come back next week! I just can’t say enough good things about this place.

Ohana itself: A lovely little place. Good vibes. Youll feel cared for.Massage: Jennifer S. is my goto. Shes absolutely amazing. Tuned in and activated. If you come for your energetic health as much as your physical, ask for her. I always get an excellent, healing experience with her.

Alex and I had a wonderful experience at Ohana today. We both felt so cared for during our massages and left feeling like a million bucks! If I lived in the area, this would be my go-to place for sure! Thank you for making our bridal shower day start off so well. 💖

I got a prenatal massage with Eva at 38 weeks pregnant. It was magical. She wasn’t afraid to us pressure in the right places and was very attentive to the unique needs of a very pregnant gal. And, I went into labor a few day’s later so maybe there’s a connection. I’ll definitely return to Ohana wellness. Next up for me is the Thai massage.

My prenatal massage with Melanie was fantastic! At 36 weeks, I wanted to make sure I went somewhere that would be safe for the baby as well as myself. Melanie discussed problem areas with me and my pregnancy in general beforehand, was welcoming, and attentive. She provided a fantastic massage, and I am so glad I went. Thank you!

I’m so happy that I gifted myself a massage at Ohana! Everyone was kind. The atmosphere was calm and serene. My massage....FANTASTIC!! I’m making this my monthly treat to myself. I was aching when I arrived and when I left, the aching was gone. Also, I felt like I could see, hear and think clearer. Thank you, Ohana for making my birthday great!

My prenatal massage with Gloria was amazing! She made me feel so safe and comfortable at 36 weeks pregnant, it was the most relaxed I have been my whole pregnancy. Gloria is also a doula, so she truly understands prenatal concerns and needs.Every staff member I interacted with was kind and lovely to me, all around it was a wonderful experience! I would love to go back for another prenatal massage and after the baby is born too. I highly recommend Ohana Wellness!

Review №26

Heather was amazing. I usually dread massages as they tend to be very painful for me. But instead of pushing hard directly on the knots and sore spots, she worked around them gently, working them out without the pain or discomfort. Finally I have found a place that I can get a relaxing massage, that truly gets the knots out, without it being torture. Very relaxing experience. I’ll definitely be back.

OMG JENNIFER WAS AMAZING. She made sure to communicate with me through out the whole process. My first prenatal massage and I LOVED every minute of it. After the message I felt nice and relaxed my body was not so tense. The amount of pressure she used was AMAZING. She worked her magic on my problem areas, areas I didn’t even know had that much tension. Would I go again most definitely for prenatal or regular massage.

Review №28

Carol ( the massage therapist) was/is fantastic. I recently relocated and needed a bit of TLC. Carol provided me with a relaxing experience and helped to relieve the tension from my recent move. I highly recommend that you ask for her services or try out the Spa. It does not offer sauna, steam rooms, or other stuff that I am used to, but I was still able to step out of my comfort zone and enjoy the Spa. The other staff informed me that they do offer an array of other services, and I should check it out which I may consider doing at some point. Thanks, Ohana!

Meghan was amazing. I booked a last minute massage during the holidays (for my birthday) and got one of the few remaining 30 minute slots. Booking was easy via the Mindbody App, and the intake form was simple enough. I thought 30 minutes was going to be too short, but it was still quite thorough and extremely relaxing. I felt amazing after the massage treatment, and Meghan really tuned into my tight upper back between the shoulder blades. I love supporting local women-owned businesses all while getting my self-care in, this is where I can feel good all the way around. Thank you!!

A wonderful massage with Ally! She knows what shes doing, truly knowledgable and experienced. As a personal trainer, she really understood what my body needed, after some hard races and workouts.

Absolutely fabulous experience with Jennifer in June 2019!! She customized the massage to trouble areas and was very knowledgeable about the specific muscles throughout the body and how to provide relief. I have already recommended her to several other fitness enthusiasts who are battling ongoing muscle soreness or tightness. Thanks Jennifer and Ohana!

Heather was super nice. I had to change my appointment time and she adjusted to let me come later in the day. She did a grest job getting to know me and understanding my needs before she started. I got a great deep tissue massage. Heather is friendly, skilled and cares about her clients. Fabulous experience.

Just got a massage from Heather, it was great. She helped me work out some back/neck tightness that Id been having a particularly tough time with recently and was also just so welcoming. Everything from making the appointment to getting to the location to the massage and paying at the end was super easy. I felt right at home the whole time. Thank you!

Review №43

Never will attend this place again. I went for a massage and first off, the massage therapist didn’t have any massage oils or essential oils. I mean come on! I asked about it and she didn’t have any. She used a watery lotion and the massage was more like a rub down. I felt the experience was not worth the money I spent. I also heard traffic inside the room from outside the window.I felt cheated but just kept it moving. I haven’t returned since. I’ve had numerous massages here in the states and in overseas as well. This was the worst kind. Lackluster and just because someone is pregnant, doesn’t mean they do not deserve to experience a great massage. We are not eggs and super fragile. We have aches and pains and seek relaxation. I got a great nap in that’s for sure.

I try to get here monthly if I can. Everyone I have seen has been wonderful, had deliberate conversations with me to understand what I was looking for and then adjusted the treatment accordingly. Often, even following up by email afterwards with stretching suggestions. While everyone is wonderful, I especially recommend Megan.

Review №87

I have been seeing Armeta for several years now, for what feels like a very special kind of acupuncture. By this I mean that our work together has been central to authentic emotional healing and spiritual reconnection and evolution. Previously, I didnt know that acupuncture could be so well-suited for navigating these realms of experience. I have learned so much! Armeta is a deeply caring and wise practitioner. She has gently guided me toward profound personal growth and a deepening of self-understanding, which allowed me to make empowering changes I did not know were possible! This process is rooted in a beautiful intimacy that affirms both the ancient wisdom traditions in which she has trained, and in the power of love. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wise, intuitive, and compassionate guide.
