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.

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

What a way to run your business Lawrence. I do not recommend this place nor will reschedule with this place. Horrible customer service! In addition, for a business owner, this is poor practice! If you did not want a new client, you should have said so from the get go!

I checked it out got a day pass and used all their amenities before and after my massage. I loved the extreme hot and cold temperatures they kept. They have a nice and hot jacuzzi, infrared sauna, steam sauna with eucalyptus with temp of 110. Nice and hot just the way I like it. Cold plunge tubs are 45 just cold enough to benefit a real cold plunge. It was great. My massage therapist Habib was amazing he used a technique called body tempering to soothe my aches and pains from chronic tendiopathy. He uses a steel bar bell. If you don't mind a little pain and like getting your facia scraped and rolled out then this technique is just for you. One of the best spa and bathing experiences I ever had . I have been to many spas and bath houses around the world. It was really great. Tips bring your own towel or it will cost you 5 bucks. If you do get a massage come prior and stay after your massage and soak in the tubs and you can shower after. If you are ever in the island and want to soak your body and recover after a long hike or swim check out Sento House. Thanks January Dakota and Habib Mahalo

From my fingers to my toes, I knew Body Harmony Massage Therapy was worth every single penny. You can go Zip Lining, Book Fishing Trips, eat at Luau, catch a Helicopter Trip around the Island and I have done all those adventures plus many more. Nothing I have ever done here has ever felt as good as the massage from Rebekah. Sure, I was happy catching the 125 pound Marlin, but how you physically feel is important.

I was so grateful to be able to replace my massage therapist. I found Howard with White Ginger Healing right in HILO through my mom who is a Breast Cancer Survivor!! Howard is a Nationally Certified Massage Therapist with several years experience in Oncology Massage...it is downright amazing that I can talk to him about my chemo drugs and he knows of the side-effects and techniques to help me handle them. He knows the pathology of different cancers from a trained medical point of view, and he is a treasure chest of information on how to improve my lifestyle in general to help combat side-effects of treatments. Before I was diagnosed I was half-way through my Masters in Chinese Medicine. I was so pleased to discover that Howard uses acupressure points that correspond to the meridians that may need a boost - like for a weakened immune system, or a release - like for high toxicity in your liver. For all that I do to destroy cancer cells in my body, the one thing I must do on a weekly basis is give back to my body through massage. It is truly a blessing to find a practitioner like who Howard choses to specialize in Oncology massage due to an inherent passion to help those who most need it. Thank goodness for people like him.
