Massage with Aloha

Mike Grunwald, CMT is a certified massage therapist who brings the “aloha spirit” of care, hospitality and respect to the massage room. With his expertise in Hawaiian Lomi Lomi massage, Swedish, reflexology, trigger point, deep tissue and sports massage, Mike is dedicated to helping the body heal itself in a relaxed, soothing manner. In addition to providing the traditional relief associated with gentle massage, Mike believes that deep therapeutic work can also be accomplished with a caring touch. He blends massage techniques to create a pleasurable experience, meanwhile releasing knots and tension in the muscles and connective tissue called fascia. Mike often incorporates facilitated stretches and education into his massage sessions, suggesting tips on self-care and injury prevention for his clients.

Mike received his training from the McKinnon Institute for Therapeutic Massage, the Maui Institute for Therapeutic Massage, and the Upledger Institute. He is certified and experienced in working with people living with cancer, pregnant women, the elderly, and those suffering from chronic illness or trauma.
