Very helpful having the massage, it compliments my physical therapy after having my rotator fixed.

I had a stiff neck and shoulder. I had a massage by Micchi, and when my neck turned after the massage, I was so moved and grateful. I was saved by her warm hands.Mahalo!! read more

See all

TLDR: DO IT. Price to value, this place is legit your best bet. The therapists we had were both amazing. Make sure to tip them well because they deserve every penny! **Cash Only/No Credit Card payments** Visit: Weekday Rating: 8.4/10 My gf and I were visiting Hilo for the day and after a lot of driving and shopping activities we were in need of a relaxing massage. After viewing a number of alternatives, we called Awakening and they were able to fit us in for a last minute 90 minute session. It's located on the upper floor of an office building and is a low key hidden gem. Nothing fancy. However, the therapists we had were top notch. I've literally had 100+ massages and they're definitely in the top quartile in regards to technique/style/overall effectiveness. The fact that they are notably cheaper is even better! Do it. read more

OM gosh Michyo got right to my knots and released my traveling tension. She went from origin of my muscles to the insertion and got my knots out quick. Not like when you're laying there going OK she'll come back to that. Oh I wish she would spend a little more time there on your back and she did a great job. I definitely will be coming back. I might be moving here so hopefully I'll have a massage therapist. But anyone give her a try small but mighty. read more

Oh my gosh Eika is the BEST. I came in with no expectations, just thinking I would get a regular massage, but she exceeded everything I could have hoped for and REALLY does have magic hands. Let me just make it easy for you by saying, COME HERE FOR A MASSAGE. 1. Eika is very kind, and professional. She's super sweet and personable, and makes you feel relaxed and comfortable. 2. Price point is totally fair for what you get, also kama'aina discount!!! 3. You fill out a form saying where you're hurting, and she actually DOES read it and pays close attention to those areas. She worked out knots I didn't even realize were there. 4. I was having chronic pain for several months, the massage helped DRASTICALLY, and I really wasn't even sure where the pain was from, and Eika still managed to help me. 5. She is such a skilled massage therapist, I was SO impressed, truly one of the best massages I have had in my life. She has STRONG hands (but can adjust pressure perfectly as needed.) Just trust her to do her thing, she knows what she is doing!!!! Go see Eika, you won't regret it!!! read more

I have to say massages at this establishment is the best. I've had many massages in my lifetime for sore muscles or just to have a nice massage to treat my body . I really didn't want to post how great they are and have a hard time to book a appointment, but they do such good work and treatments on me I needed to inform everyone 5 stars is just not enough on rating them. read more

Struggled with constant lumbar pain for the past 6 months until my husband booked a couples massage for us here. Eika has magical hands and is so skilled in her technique because my pain dissolved after just one session. I requested deep tissue with medium pressure specifically around my lower back and neck/shoulders. The pressure was perfect and environment was very relaxing. Eika is so friendly and the ultra reasonable price made our experience even better. I can't describe what a relief it is to no longer feel that aching pain in my back. I look forward to booking more sessions in the future! read more

I gave my son a massage since he had gotten in a car accident, then had to lift heavy items in a house move and then sit hours on end in college. Not a good combination. He really liked Kevin and said he hit all the right spots. He felt Kevin picked up quickly on what his needs were and addressed them. He said he wants to go back. read more

Had my first deep tissue massage this afternoon and it was painfully wonderful. I asked for deep and it's what I got. I finished my appt with less tension in my shoulders and my hip feeling like it was popped back into place. My lower back pain is gone. The pricing is great too! I'll definitely be returning. read more

My friend, a Hilo native, spoke highly of this place. She's been going there for years so she was hoping I get to try them out while I was visiting. Anyway, I missed my chance while visiting Hilo. I decided to call this place, while I was back in California, asking if I can purchase a couple of sessions for my friend as a Christmas gift. The guy, believe his name was Kevin, was super friendly and helpful. He made the transaction super smooth and was accommodating to the fact that I'm sending a check from CA. Long story short, I give this place 5/5 for the quality of their service. I look forward to trying them out when I'm back in town. read more

I was in terrible pain. I had pulled a muscle in my neck. Awakening Hilo Massage was able to fit me in quickly. I saw Sunisa. She is amazing. It was not a Swedish massage like I normally get. Sunisa did a deep tissue massage and gave me relief from the pain. I'm very grateful. read more

5 star is not enough on how good eika is at what she does, I'm a big guy at 6'5 and I asked for deep tissue the pressure was perfect, very clean and friendly I'm definitely going back again and again for relaxing my muscles and adjustment read more

We booked in advance from Delaware. We arrived yesterday to Hilo after a long journey and a lot of steps. We got to them this morning and it was bright and so very clean. We were a couple and we each had a massage from two excellent therapists. It was a wonderful start to our trip which was rescheduled three times. The massage was professional and amazing. We are now both smiling. Affordable, clean, awesome technique. It was just what we needed and if you try them you will thank me. FYI there is no quarantine necessary if you have a NEGATIVE COVID 19 test. I had two to prove I was COVID free and I had one at the airport upon arrival. I care about everyone's health including my own, I never break the rules and for anyone to suggest that I or the business broke the rules is just plain uneducated. WITH NEGATIVE RESULTS THERE IS NO QUARANTINE NECESSARY read more

Oh My God! This place is heaven! I had my first massage here today with my wife and it was nothing short of AMAZING!! I feel like a brand new man, ready to climb Mauna Kea! I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a wonderful, relaxing, and refreshing massage! read more

Really great Thai massage. They are very professional and the cost is reasonable. Their suite is on the second floor of the old Hilo Court Building. You should checkout the building as well. read more

My BF has been in real pain and I was able to get a massage for him by communicating with Awakening Hilo Massage on YELP!!! He felt that Ayaka really helped with his back! Im going to have him try the other masseuses so that he can then make a determination about someone who fits his needs. Thank you! read more

I've been here twice and have to say Eika is one of the best massage therapists that I've ever been to. I was a little wary at first since her specialty is deep tissue and I tend to like my pressure light to medium; however she adjusted to my liking perfectly. I would highly recommend this location to anyone and will definitely be a repeat visitor. It's very affordable and they only take cash! I paid about $57 for an hour which was great considering how wonderful the massage was. I've paid double that for a massage at a nice, fancy hotel and left feeling as if I didn't even get massaged. The ambiance of the place is extremely relaxing and allows you to focus on relieving stress. The building that the massage place is located in is a treat in itself, older building with amazing wood and architecture features (sorry, I'm a geek about old buildings). Eika is very friendly and always checking in to make sure everything is ok and that the pressure is appropriate. I HIGHLY recommend this place and will definitely be a regular. read more

I was able to get a same day lomi lomi massage appointment with Ayaka. One of the best massages I ever had. Good healing energy and firm pressure. Mahalo nui. Be back next month! read more

My gal was amazing!!!! Highly recommend coming here and super reasonably priced for the quality of the massage you get read more

Awakening Hilo Massage LLC - Amazing place here in n Hilo to loosen up a stressed and tired body. - Massage Therapy Near Me - Hilo, Hawaii

I think this is the best massage place in Hilo. I have a very high standard for foot massage, and I've tried so many places, most of them let me down. Until I found this one, it felt really good, made me relax all day. Sunisa is very good, for sure I'll come again. read more

Kevin is very knowledgeable and provided excellent suggestions/advice on improving my health.

Professional and knowledgeable. Definitely recommend. The atmosphere is calming and the massage was great, be back for sure.

I had a tension headache from traveling 10 hours from the mainland, so I went seeking out some relief. I saw the positive reviews for Awakening and I decided to give them a shot. Very happy I did. I've had a massage 1-2 times per month for years, and I've even had a membership at massage envy. Eika did a great job...I filled out a questionnaire on where I had pain and what I was hoping to achieve during the session. I told her about my headache and tension in my shoulders and neck. She focused the majority of the time in those areas and my headache melted away. Very good combination of massage, pressure points, aromatherapy and stretching. Definitely recommend! read more

I called one Saturday and got a same day appointment. Was pleasantly surprised by how cute and peaceful this office was. What was more pleasing was the massage. It is truly therapeutic I had what I think was a bad back spasm and left with a lot less pain! I highly recommend Eika and Awakening Hilo Massage. read more

Diligent, thorough, skilled. I've had massages around the world. Some excellent, some not. Everyone has their own style. Most are pretty mechanical and don't adapt very well. I said I wanted a firm, therapeutic massage and that my neck and shoulders are always locked up. I forgot to ask what 'style' Eika used, because while much of what she did was familiar to me, some was not, though it all made sense. Especially challenging with serious massage is attacking the muscles without causing too much pain or causing them to lock up. Eika balanced both. This was probably the most skilled massage I've ever had. read more

I am from Los Angeles California visiting my sister. She hooked me up with Kevin at the beginning of my week visit and I am planning on booking for the day I leave!! He is so authentic and attentive. I have NEVER had a massage where the masseuse actually listened and responded directly to my issues. Do NOT THINK TWICE. This man is a gem and the price is ridiculously low. Wowza!! read more

I had a great massage for a fair price. Plan on me being a return customer!

Kevin was excellent! I had a very thorough deep tissue massage, which was truly deep tissue with firm pressure in the right places. He was very knowledgeable and even noticed that I had some misalignment /subluxation that was causing my tension/stiffness issues. Thank you Kevin! - FYI cash only, wish they took credit card read more

I had an AMAZING deep tissue massage today by Eika, the owner. She incorporated stretching, trigger point, and deep tissue massage work. She loosened up knots and kinks that I wasn't even aware of. I left feeling so peaceful and rejuvenated. My partner had a massage by Kevin and was equally pleased by his experience. The environment was nice; professional, quiet with soothing music, good lighting, and comfortable temperature. I highly recommend to anybody looking for a good masseuse in Hilo. We are definitely going back! read more

I've gotten massaged by Eika, Kevin, Rio and Sunisa... all of them are exquisite massage therapists! I have been spoiled because now that I'm living in Washington I can't find anyone who can live up to my expectations. Get massaged here. You will not regret it, trust me. The deep tissue always left me feeling rejuvenated, satisfied and incredibly less tense. I will say that Eika is my favorite, she is amazing!! read more

My experience with Eika was everything I expected! She was wonderful in pointing out my problem areas. Her massages were purposeful and by the time the massage finished I was amazed at how relaxed and great I felt! I've had some horrible experiences with different massage therapists in the past and I am so happy to have found the right one! She has a healing touch! I am definitely a satisfied customer and will be returning back soon. read more
