Whenever we're on Oahu we quickly book our massage at this Hawai'i Massage Clinic. You can request a licensed masseur or a student. The rates for the student are discounted. I usually sign up for the 90 minute massage. They are located in Waikiki but there's a parking garage located next to the clinic. It can get hectic in there. I would definitely give yourself plenty of extra time to get there. Once you are in the building you are required to sign in with security. It's pretty simple and no frills. I've never had a bad massage. The masseurs are all Japanese and very talented. I definitely would recommend it. read more

Price was amazing $85 for a two hour massage. My massage was conducted by a student from Japan - there was definitely a language barrier, but we managed. The center is in a run down old building and the rooms had very little ambiance - open window with traffic noises, bright lights on the entire time and small curtained off areas. My therapist did an amazing job - Mimi took care to avoid the hip that I'm having surgery on, but definitely got all of my other tight and tense spots. They requested you to leave underwear on, which as a schoolhouse, I understand. Highly recommended and will definitely go back!! read more

I visited this clinic because the hotel bed I was staying on was causing significant discomfort in my back and neck. Although it is a student clinic and more affordable, the care I received was professional and attentive. The facility was clean and well-maintained, and the therapist was knowledgeable, and ensured I was comfortable throughout the session. She carefully addressed my problem areas and applied the right amount of pressure, leaving me feeling significantly more relaxed and with noticeable relief. read more

Today marked the ending of a two year stint at a local non profit. We decided to celebrate as a couple by booking massages at the Hawaii Massage Clinic! What an experience!!! Nami and Junko are excellent therapist! My husband was snoring with delightful relaxation! Junko is categorized as a student but in my opinion she is already a pro! She is blessed with warm hands and has that healing touch. Kama'aina, you get an really good discount! Go and check them out! read more

Massage by students in Waikiki, Honolulu, Hawaii... Always on the lookout for reasonably priced massages, Irene and I have tried many places together. Our next adventure was Hawaii Massage Clinic. Located on the 7th floor of the Seaside Commercial Center, enter the building from Lau'ula Street. I called for an appointment, but they answered by text. I was directed to their website to make the appointment. The fee was stated as $64 for 90 minutes. It's $56 if you are kama'aina. Hawaii State ID will be required. A confirmation text was received, as well as a reminder text to arrive 15 minutes before the appointment to complete paperwork. I paid upfront by credit card... tax was included in the price. We tipped in cash before leaving. The students were very polite and professional. We were asked if we would allow our feet and head to be touched. Sure! We were escorted to the 6th floor where there are more rooms! We were separated by thick curtains that reminded me of the type that are used in hospitals! We started face down. They were very generous with the body oil and used lomilomi techniques. I was surprised that my student (Eden) was so strong for her petite stature! She was very respectful and covered the body parts that were finished. She covered my eyes with a towel when I was face up. Overall, the massage was very thorough (scalp, back, legs, arms, neck, shoulders, etc.) and I look forward to returning! read more

Lomi lomi over here... As the self care industry grows so does the need to find the place that gives you that much needed place where you can feel at ease to destress and take away all the adulting issues and you can find that here at Hawaii Massage Clinic. Thank you to Nadine C who found this place in Waikiki...Seaside Commercial Center to be exact as it's a tiny old building almost lost amongst the huge neighbors as it's right across Ross's and behind Waikiki Shopping Plaza and they're on the 7th floor. As we walked in instantly we were greeted by the friendliest staff and getting here early is respected as you need to fill in simple and easy questions and are asked to pay your sessions upfront as we had student rates which is insanely reasonable at $64 for 90 minutes with additional discount for kama'aina is nice that they do take care of the locals with these special prices. The staff are extremely polite asking all questions before you start to clarify the type of service reserved along with materials they use and massage pressure desired is so nice and reassuring to which we were taken to a room on another floor as they have several in other rooms as well is nice so that there aren't that many along with others so you do feel the sense of privacy though this dated building isn't quite sound proof as I do hear the traffic going by along with airplanes zooming which really didn't bother me as this city girl already was in bliss as soon as the session started. The lights did stay on but they do cover your eyes with a towel that's probably my only down side but with prices and services like this it's all gravy as I felt like jello though she asked what areas to work on I said shoulder which she didn't do and didn't massage my scalp which she said was gonna do didn't get that either the pressure she gave me was impressive considering how tiny she was. Absolutely recommend as quality service with friendly staff at prices like this got me beyond happy and thank you Nadine for this lovely and relaxing day. Thank you! read more

Amazing massage, it felt relaxing and rejuvenating. Professional. Courteous and they made my daughter feel very comfortable for her first ever massage. I highly recommend. read more

I called them on a Monday and they were booked out for the entire week. I've never been here and wish I could have tried it. I could not wait a week and got a massage elsewhere. I guess you really have to plan ahead and book your massage way in advance. Sometimes you just want to call in and get in the same day or even the next day. Oh well. read more

I honestly put off writing a review for a long time because I don't want them to get so popular that I can't get an appointment. I will start with the worst thing which is the location. There is no parking and you have to cross several restaurants that are venting very disgusting smelly smoke at the street level. The building is also old and dilapidated and the facility is not luxurious. I had been going to Sheep Deep Sleep, which unfortunately closed and never reopened. I desperately needed a massage and I found the Waikīkī Massage Clinic on Yelp. I don't know about the quality of the student massages but I have been very impressed by the quality of the professional massage. I have worked with many different professional therapists at this business and they have all been extremely skilled and accommodating. Even though there is no parking and the location is not good, I still plan to visit regularly. The excellent skill of their professional therapists has really decreased the frequency of my horrendous tension headaches. The price for a professional massage is very reasonable. read more

My go to place when me and my Ohana come and stay in Waikiki..clinic comes with both students and professionals..I won the 50 percent off giveaway for neck and shoulders..so of course I had to get my 1 hour massage..May was amazing..not only she did my neck a shoulders that i originally went there for ..she did my whole body and more..usually I would tell them to pay attention to my hip and legs below area..but I'm glad to do the shoulder and neck cause it was amazing..she even massage my chest..and pelvics area..even my stomach which I hope she made it so my belly will come flat..lol the room was so quite..like it blocked out the sound of busy waikiki..played with beautiful Hawaiian music..may kept the area clean before and right after my session..highly recommend for anyone to get their massage here.. read more

Mako is amazing! Pressure point, stretching, kneading. Misako is also really good! $8 off if you show Hawaii ID. Their student massage is still really good quality. Sometimes the therapists graduated already and still offer student massage services. read more

If you're local to Hawaii or a tourist trying to find a less expensive massage the Hawaii massage clinic is perfect. I booked a two hour student massage and it did not disappoint. While you aren't getting a fancy spa experience you still get a clean and friendly environment, relaxing music and a really good massage. My student was professional, kind and gave me a two hour massage that anywhere else I would have paid $250 or more. read more

The ladies here were super sweet and helpful. They accommodated our group of five and gave us exactly what we were looking for. Great massages and the way to start our week off with relaxation. read more

My go to massage place! I love coming here. Everyone is so nice and welcoming & the price is great!

Amazing service! Everything was perfect - professional, ability to speak great English, clean, perfect temperature, etc. The student I had (Kahoko, maybe Kokoha? I'm sorry!) was honestly better than some professional services I've had. She applied the perfect pressure and focused on the parts I wanted to focus on more which made me very happy! I was overdue for a massage and tired of all the Groupon fails I've had, saw their ad on Facebook and put in a booking request, got a confirmation very quickly. I got a 90 minute massage for only $53 with Kamaʻāina! They charge for the service up front, so make sure to bring cash for tip after. All my achy and sore areas are feeling so much better. Thank you again, will definitely be booking here in the future! read more

Such a wonderful experience. My daughter and I were able to book our appointment online. When we got there we were met by our masseuses and they were so kind. The massages were amazing and just what we needed after flying in. We would definitely recommend going here. If we ever are in town again we will be back. read more

My husband and I have been here several times and always go with the interns. I have never been disappointed. The previous bay for the service you receive is outstanding. They normally ask what type of pressure. This last visit - I think the therapist was getting tried as my husband usually likes hard pressure, but he felt the masseuse didn't have enough stamina to be consistent. The building is very old and sketchy, but I don't mind because I usually fall asleep during my massage. This time, there was street construction going on. It was a little disturbing. The masseuse kept on apologizing although it was beyond her control. I still recommend this service to friends as it is a good value for the service! read more

I cannot believe the negative reviews here. Granted, it's not a fancy spa so the massage tables aren't closed and private. Your next door neighbor is covered regardless by a curtain. Tip: They don't have students on weekends. Also, the clinic is located on the 7th floor. My masseuse was Tomoyo. She was AMAZING. Her hands, I swear, had warmth and energy to them that activated the oils. She was perfect and listened to my body's every need. She was incredible! I would follow her everywhere I went, but I don't live in Hawaii. read more

Great little massage school in Waikīkī across of Ross and above Musubi. I parked across at Ross and bought $10 worth of stuff to get validated parking. My massage therapist was Yuzu and she was so great! I got the one hour massage. I don't have any back issues so I just did a regular full body. I just came back from a trip and these massages after a long flight back to the Hawaiian Kingdom are a must! Thankful my friend recommended this place to me. I will be back! Thank you so much Yuzu! read more

I love Hawaii Massage Clinic it's my go to when I have back pain. The ladies are so nice and so service oriented. I get a quality massage at the best price around town read more

Very happy with quality of massage especially for the price of $38 for a 1 hour massage. It's a place where student massage therapists practice their skills on you for a discounted price. The last time, I wasn't that impressed but decided to give them another chance. This time my therapist was Saki and she was terrific. I could tell she knew her way around the musculoskeletal landscape. She quickly identified my tight and knotted spots and assailed them with a combination of rolling elbows and precision kneading fingers. Don't be shy to give feedback on pressure whether less pressure or make me cry like the buffet just ran out of bacon. The location is central Waikiki and I parked one block away towards the Ala Wai canal at the metered parking along Aloha Drive. The building itself is old but the actual massage facility on the 7th floor is very clean. You get a 10% discount when you show a local ID. read more

There are many massage places around Waikiki for the tourists. I found this one because of a social ad that got fed to me and it was a very fair price. I like that they were students because the rate was cheaper. The building is a little dodgy, but don't worry about that. The massages are great. They're a legit organization, not a rub and tug. I am going back for my second massage today. Make sure you tip your student massage therapist as well, preferably in cash. read more

They usually have special deals going on and to be honest can't beat 45$ special for 90min full body massage!! This was our second time, first time was okay. I didn't know what to request and what to expect. We went back for special and this time I requested certain areas and more pressure almost deep tissue massage. Lino was amazing, she hit all the right spots. She also realized some of the muscles more sore than the other areas and she adjusted the pressure accordingly. She made sure that I was comfortable multiple times. One of the best massages I had!! Ask for Lino next time!! read more

Everyone was friendly but if you're looking for a deep tissue with lots of pressure, this is not that. The massages are for people looking for light touch. Inexpensive but if you're an experienced massage recipient, you will most likely need to look elsewhere unless you like Swedish. Light Swedish. read more

Just had a 90 minute massage with Misa. What made her massage a wonderful experience was her flow and rhythm. Not often do you get a student therapist who understands that it's not always about technique but intention and respect for the body on her table. So glad I received her massage. Thank you Misa!!! read more

I was able to call and get an appt that day. I was text a form to fill out. Easy. There is no parking unless you park at Ross's, buy something and get validated. Luckily for me, I found street parking. As you enter the building, you sign in with security and then use the elevators to get to the floor.They will meet you outside the door. If you were looking for some type of Zen spa facility, this is not the place. It is a school. I just wanted a massage so I did not care about the atmosphere as another spa I had initially wanted to go to was booked that day. Initially as I looked in, I saw students waiting with beds set up in the middle of the room which was small. I got nervous as I thought everyone would be looking at me, but maybe that is where they do their training. I was guided to a different room that had curtain dividers. I was asked which strength of massage I liked. I informed the student that I only wanted from back up. You are instructed to remove your bra and top and go under the covers. The massage was very good. I would definitely go again. Show them your local ID and you'll get an extra $10 off. Best deal ever. read more

I'm so glad I found this place during our stay in Waikiki. I completed the online form requesting a massage and was able to schedule an appointment for the next day. I had Yukino who is a licensed massage therapist and she was great! She applied the right amount of pressure and really took her time with my trouble areas. My friend had a massage with one of the students and unfortunately his experience was not as great as mine. We both scheduled another massage for this morning and I requested Yukino again and she did an amazing job. She really has wonderful hands and great technique! The prices are very reasonable, would definitely recommend if you're in the area. read more

This is my first time here & I really wanted to support this place. But that was the lamest, most ineffective massage I've ever had. I guess you get what you pay for. The massage therapist was sweet, but her pressure was inconsistent. At times too hard, at others too light. I gave up asking for less pressure or more pressure, and at about the half way point just decided to endure it & wait for it to be over. About to schedule a massage at a real spa for 3x the cost, but at least I know that I'll leave satisfied. read more

You can't beat the prices on their student massages! $38 for 60 minutes, $55 for 90 minutes, and $75 for 120 minutes. They were running a kamaaina special, so I went ahead and booked a 120-minute student massage for $65. I repeat. A 2-HOUR MASSAGE FOR $65. Sweeeeet! (They also offer massages by fully licensed therapists, though at a much steeper $1/minute) I requested a date and time from their online form late at night, and was able to get a reply and confirmation for an appointment the next day. Parked at Waikiki Shopping Plaza right across the street for a flat $7 fee. The clinic is located in the Seaside Commercial Center, which is the run-down looking light blue building on the corner of Lauula and Seaside with Iyasume on the ground floor. It's a really sketchy looking building, like "worried I might wake up with my liver missing" sketchy. But the service was top notch, and I guess that's how they can keep the prices so low! Worth it. Head up to the main office/front desk and the friendly and efficient workers will get you signed in and check your temperature. When it's your turn, your therapist will take you to your assigned room, which may be on another floor (another unit in the same building). I just asked for a basic massage, and to focus on my shoulders. I got a nice, strong full body massage and completely fell asleep about 30 minutes in. Woke up 90 minutes later and was totally refreshed! Overall, no complaints here. Maybe not the absolute best massage I've ever received, but for the price, completely worth it!!! I think I'll be back once a month. read more

Amazing hidden spot for affordable massage! Most places in Waikiki can charge upwards of $100+ for a massage, I got the 90 min Student Lomi Lomi Massage and it was only $60! Don't let the "student" part discourage you; my masseuse, Nomi, did a fantastic job. She was very attentive and kind, we discussed what type of pressure I like and what areas to focus on. My favorite was the arm massage which felt nicely stretched and soothing. As for the ambiance, I definitely recommend going early in the morning when they open (9:30-10am). There is abit of noise as the massage room is three beds separated by curtains so you may hear other clients talking when they are leaving/arriving. Also, you are in the busy Waikiki so a bit of street noise coming from the windows is unavoidable but not too bothersome. But overall it was still very relaxing and peaceful. I had an amazing experience and definitely will be returning for the quality massage at a good price. Thank you so much Nomi! read more

I've been to Hawaii Massage clinic twice and both times I was super impressed with the quality of massage provided by both of the student therapists that worked on me. I called and got a recording that said to leave a message. I left a message and got a very quick reply from the reservationist who got me in that same day. I've been doing massage for 35 yrs and am not critical of student massages because it is a learning process. I was HIGHLY IMPRESSED by both therapists with their confidence, professionalism, and with the pressure they applied that I had asked for! I've ran a massage school in the past so I understand it IS a clinic and learning atmosphere. It is located in an old hotel that's been converted in to a school so don't be surprised if they take you to another floor for your massage. The room is divided in to 3 or 4 individual and private spaces divided by curtains so don't expect a spa experience. It is a learning atmosphere but it was very comfortable. Both therapists greeted me in a professional manner and both did an excellent job of massage and bodywork. It was a great service with a great price!!! Will definitely be back. read more

The massage itself was awesome. I selected a 90 minute massage with a licensed therapist and was not disappointed at all!! I've had over a hundred massages and this was probably in the top 10%. The only thing I would say is this is in an older building. When I first walked in I wondered what I got myself in to. They don't have massage rooms but instead you're behind a curtain with tracking like a hospital room. They played music and had ocean sounds so I just pretended I was getting a massage by the beach. I definitely recommend. Better than most massages I've paid 3x the price for. read more

Love this place! The service is excellent. The atmosphere is so relaxing and they listen when you tell them to avoid or focus on specific places. read more

I am still recovering on my heel. The person rolled some something on the bottom of my feel my left foot has pain and it is difficult to walk now for almost a week. I wrote that I am diabetic but I think she didn't look at it. My feel is important to me and it takes longer to heal. Although I am in shape I do walk 3-5 miles a day. This has cause me to not walk very well. I have been there before and it was fine the last time. This time I have several pain. read more

This is my first time at HMC and booking was easy and they were very informative. They help you throughout the process of getting there and where the clinic is. The first thing that I love about them was their service, so friendly and accommodating. I had Yuko as the massage therapist and she is so good, has gentle hands and truly helped me with my stiffness. The setting was very clean, I love the music choice. It was by far one of the best massage sessions I had in Hawaii. I will for sure come back and rebook! read more

If yall were wondering if this place is good. Yes it is. Get combo massage. Recommend!

Love going to Hawaii Massage Clinic! It is located in Waikiki on Seaside Avenue across the street from Ross and just 5 minutes from me! They always have great enticing deals. On my first visit in November 2020, I enjoyed 120 minute massage for $50. The deal I got on my second visit was 60 minutes $28. Unbelievable!! The students are actually pretty good. I was lucky to get Hiro-san. He was great- I have shoulder injury and he was very sensitive yet gave me good massage on it. His pressure was perfect- I love strong pressure. I look forward to my next visit. You guys need to check them out! read more

Amazing massage with great service and price. If you're local, they give kama'aina pricing! Although a few people complained that it's in a really old building, I'm here to get a massage with my eyes closed not to sight see so I don't care. The ladies were all very professional and my masseuse, Yuka, did an amazing job with the pressure and working on all my issue areas. I felt great afterwards, like a well tenderized meat. Even the old man snoring away next to me for 20 mins did not deter the experience for me. I actually thought it was a bit funny as it felt so good that he knocked out like a light. Definitely worth going. Park at Ross and buy sometime to validate your parking or park somewhere far for free and get some exercise in. read more

We found this place by pure accident... if you can call Facebook advertisement and accident. The booking process was easy. The building feels old and maybe a little sketchy when you first arrive. Don't let that detour you both my husband and I got a two hour massage for under $100. They are students but they take the time ask the right questions. Much better than what I get stateside at Massage Envy. read more

I come to Hawaii a few times per year and love to relax with a few massages each time. This time I found Hawaii massage clinic. The team was very prompt in communicating with me via email to schedule my first appointment. For my first massage I had Sol. She was very pleasant to work with and gave an excellent massage. She had very good technique and pressure. She periodically checked in to make sure the pressure was still good and that I was doing OK. Thank you Sol! I booked a few more appointments with the same clinic and am currently expecting two more awesome massages! The only semicomplaint I could write is that Google maps struggled to bring me to the correct building. Not the fault of this business so I'm not scoring them negatively for that but I was glad I located their building beforehand or I would have been late to my appointment. read more
