Was charged twice after pausing my account to which they were very reluctant on giving my money back and had to go back and forth multiple times through e-mail due to the fact that the front desk people can only sign you up for a membership and cannot help you with pausing or canceling a membership. Also extreamly saddened to hear the climbing gym is going to be reduced in size.

I am relatively new to getting massages but I have gotten a handful of massages at a variety of…read moreplaces, including at a massage school, professional spas in Oahu, Lanai and Las Vegas and with Melissa at Healing Elements Haleiwa. My experience with Melissa has been the best of all of them. It is very easy to communicate with her what you need and want and want and she does a great job. Haleiwa is a little far for some people (myself included) but I try to make a North Shore trip out of the day and it is always worth it. The cost of the massage is very reasonable, plus as a teacher I get a discount. You don't get the frills of a fancy spa here (but I'm not sure that's worth the extra $100 anyway) but you do get an awesome massage!

She is also very knowledgeable about pressure points. Unfortunately I just moved back to California or I would go to her every month!

It is different than other techniques I have had done to me but I think it will be very beneficial after a followup treatment. She has great hands and an intuitive touch which, unfortunately, is not always found in many "clinical" massages I have had. Her place is meticulously clean and welcoming. She really cares about what you need and want from your session, whether it is Swedish, effleurage, or other types. I had the two hour "Royal" treatment and it was one of the best massages I have had in a very long time. She is professional and thorough. I recommend her highly.
