Hard time to get an appointment. Never received the massage from Kai. It was a huge black guy who gave me the massage. I have never felt so sore days after my massage. Normally I like deep tissue, but this one was extra extra deep/hard. Weird place also, will never be back.

I haven’t had an experience quite like this. I emailed to make an appointment with long wait times in between. Appointments have to be canceled/moved twice for personal reasons of Ka’i. That’s fine, we all go through tough times in our lives. It was however, I little awkward to receive multiple voicemails from someone who sounded very emotional and was not able to get the point across. At that point, it’s fine to just email me. Finally, appointment gets sorted out and I arrive. The massage is in an office, but isn’t in the correct office number listed on the website or the groupon. I enter and the masseuse leaves to brush her teeth. She then calls Ka’i at which point I straight out say, «You’re not Ka’i?» I’m still a little confused about that one since Ka’i was the one I corresponded with and she never mentioned I would be massaged by anyone else. Anyways, the massage was alright. Lots of «energy» things such as running hands down you’re legs and snapping three times. She also did quite a bit of «polarizing» which means she puts two hands on your body and just leaves them there for a few minutes. If you’re in to that, great. Personally I like getting massaged and not just having hands on my back. In the end, she was a nice lady. But I will avoid in the future.

I bought 2 groupons to this place and when I called to make a reservation the phone number was disconnected. I then went to the website and was led to a sketch looking website which mainly advertises photography. At this point I was incredibly confused so I just ended up driving to the place to make the reservation. I drove 30 minutes to go to this place and arrived at 8:30pm on a Wednesday. All I wanted to do was pop in and make an appointment but when I found the place(which is hidden away in an office building) it was closed. My watch read 8:35pm and according to the hours listed this place should have been open. This is ridiculous, I paid 60 bucks for no massage and right now I have a feeling that the darn place is closed for business. So now I’m sitting here with a sore back incredibly frustrated, and 60 dollars poorer. Hopefully whoever owns this shady business will have the courtesy to contact me so I can redeem my massage but given what I have been through I find this highly unlikely.

I love love loved my massage by Ka’i! I walked in and loved the atmosphere, quiet, dark, great aroma… and most importantly none of that awful waterfall music. Instead it was the blues(amazing). Ka’i allowed me to choose the music I wanted, which I appreciated because I’ve never been given that opportunity. The massage was AMAZING. I needed a deep tissue(I have severe back tension/pain), it was painful at times I’m not gonna lie, but it was a good kind of pain and I felt soooooo much better afterward. BEST nap ever after that massage. Overall it was a very pleasant experience. If I could afford to I would be going on a regular basis, but its a bit out of my price range, so this will be a special treat for me. Go to Ka’i, you will not regret it!!!

Walking into the office complex was a little strange, there were no lights in the hallway where her suite was located. That being said, the rest of my experience was great. Ka’i had the perfect touch. Just hard enough to get the kinks out. I left there feeling relaxed and renewed. It was amazing. Although it is far from my home, I’ll probably return because the massage is worth it.

I’m addicted to massages, good ones. I normally go to the Asian ones. I found Ka’i through Groupon and just got my deep tissue massage by her yesterday. It was one of the best massages I have had in a long time. She applied strong and enough pressue on my trouble areas(shoulder and back.) My sturbon knots seemed to lose up a lot today. She listened to my body and allowed the energy to flow through nicely. Honestly, I’m not very familiar with all of the energy flow stuff but that was how I felt during the massage!:-) I have never felt like that about any massages before: it was painful at time but at the same time, felt so amazingly good… She also used good oil massage where it didn’t cause my skin to itch afterward. Ka’i gave me tips on how to stretch before each work out and we talked quite a bit about health and excercise! I took her advice about stretching this morning and my running was much better! I’ll come back… If you look for a good deep tissue massage, give Ka’i a call. I hope you will also enjoy her massage as much as I did! Thanks for the good massage and the great service, Ka’i!!!

I had my first appointment with Ka’i last week and it was a great experience. We played phone and email tag a few times before I was able to schedule an appointment but she is one busy lady and so am I. Now for the massage: Her office is located in a office complex mainly populated by insurance agents and financial advisors. I had a rough time finding her suite but I eventually smelled incense and followed my nose… her office is perfect for its purpose. One room with her desk, massage table, a a few odds and ends to make the room cozy. Ka’i met me at the door with a firm handshake and asked me if I would like a cup of tea… delicious tea by the way… we sat down and she went over what kind of a massage I was interested in and what not. She offers the addition of using heated packs during the massage. I said what the hell, lets use them! She then pointed me over to the dish of dark chocolates and stepped out while I stripped down and hopped on the table. For the next 90 minutes I was transported to a state of pure bliss(minus the few times I gritted my teeth as she worked the sensitive spots). I left thoroughly relaxed and satisfied. I will definitely be back!

Best massage I’ve ever had! I had a 90 minute Swedish massage, and Ka’i spent some time before the session began to cover what I wanted out of the massage(i.e., if I had any focus areas like my neck and shoulders that she could work on) and she did a great job working out those spots. Like some of the other reviews indicate, Ka’i really understands how the body/muscles connect. She also has a range of pressure and did a firmer touch for particularly knotted spots(which worked great!). Overall, I was very satisfied with my massage and would highly recommend Ka’i(and doing the 90 rather than 60 minute massage) for anyone.

Ka’i was fantastic. Best deep tissue massage I have had… period. Sensitive to client’s needs and focuses on problem areas instead of a general approach. Definitely plan to go back on a regular plan with her.

Awesome massage therapist! Ka’i really knows the body well and it was one of the best massages I’ve ever had, focusing right where I needed it.

I met Ka’i when she was a student at NHI and my massage from her was so therapeutic and solved so many of my issues I was having from my pregnancy, that I asked her to be on standby when I went into labor. She was in the delivery room with me for hours during my very intense and difficult delivery.(5 hours hard labor, I never progressed and had a c-section at midnight). Ka’i’s presence was a comfort, she was the whole reason I didn’t lose my mind that day! After my delivery, she came to my house and helped me create a regimen and environment to soothe myself because I was suffering from post-partum. As you can see, Ka’i has a ton to offer as a conventional massage therapist, but she is so capable and accommodating that she is able to adapt to suit her clients’ needs. I’d recommend her to anyone who has aches, pains, strains, or is going thru a particularly stressful situation and they need massage to soothe and also want to create a soothing regimen for themselves to relieve the effects of stress on their minds/bodies.
