ShaylaMassage.com - LMT#8523, MAE#2043 Using motion, rather than downward pressure, it creates deep opening throughout the body and encourages blood flow in a way that moves the entire body into openness. This rare and unique technique is deeply penetrating, yet gradually opens the deepest layers of tissue without the burdening the body with downward pressure. It has applications for all muscle groups, specifically unique applications in the junction between upper and lower body: particularly the SI joint, thoracolumbar fascia, gluteal group, hip rotators, sciatic notch and hip flexors.

Shayla began nurturing her natural healing abilities over 30 years ago when she began studying under a Master of 'laying on of hands'. After many years of doing intuitive healing, she yearned for more formal training. With this goal, Shayla set forth to study more than 2,000 hours at the Healing Arts Institute in Northern California and emerged in the Spring of 2002, a highly trained therapeutic 'bodyworker'. Upon moving to Maui in 2004, her heart and her work merged in the study of the ancient Hawaiian bodywork, Lua Lomi.
Should we decide to work together, there is a good chance I will send you home with stretches and exercises in order to maintain the relief gained in the massage session. It is very important to be aware of the plane (or angle) of each stretch in order to gain full benefit without injury.

I have had many people give me a massage. Shayla is truly gifted! She has a sense of feel that I have not experienced with other therapists, almost as if she feels the pain as she moves her hands over you to find the exact area. She shared reasons and explanations of hurts that no one has explained.

Shayla is a gifted bodywork specialist. She was blessed to learn the Hawaiian healing touch and is a pleasure to work with. Her studio is pleasant and convenient with easy access. Shayla is popular and her schedule was booked. I wanted a two hour massage which was not available. I mentioned that in Notes when making the appointment before arriving in Maui. Shayla responded and accommodated my request. She has created some of her own products and I purchased mango butter, which includes organic honey. Connect with Shayla when you come to Maui. You'll be glad you did!

Shayla is professional and very good at her art. I arrived for my massage with rocks in my shoulders and left feeling relaxed and ready for the world! I would highly recommend her business!

I feel great long after I had my first session with Shayla. She has amazing hands and beautiful technique to find exactly what my body need. I will try to get as many sessions with Shayla as I can during my visit and she will be definitely on my list to do next time in Maui. Elena

Shayla truly is a natural healer! Her 90 min massage was pure heaven. From the moment you walk into her studio you feel relaxed. She has calming wave and bird music on, and uses her own concoction of natural massage oils that smelled and felt delicious! She also has a massage chair that can put you into multiple positions which aid in stretches while she's massaging you.

I am a surfer and play volleyball and have really tight shoulders and back. Her touch was firm and she intuitively focused in on the areas that needed extra attention. She knew just what I needed to loosen up my tight muscles. I will definitely be coming back! Highly recommend her, thank you Shayla!

I have been receiving massages for many years now and was wonderfully surprised at Shayla's technique. Her method for relieving the neck/shoulder area was AMAZING! My gluts are always sore from Pilates and Paddling and her methodology on my gluts loosened them right up and I slept pain free. Highly recommend Shayla! And her office space is so warm and welcoming, from the best massage chair to the bamboo foot roller. Shayla is using PPE and all recommendations for COVID 19. Made me feel very comfortable in today's environment.

Shayla is great. She's very intuitive - in tune - with bodywork and healing. My neck was so tight and stiff, plus I was experiencing knee issues. My neighbor recommended Shayla (she's been going for years) and I'm so grateful for the recommendation. I had full range of motion and no knee pain after seeing her. Now, I get in with her once a month to release the tension and tight spots. Like some other reviews, I have had several massages over the years. She is one of the best and the only one I want to see when I'm on Maui now.

I highly recommend Shayla. Her expertise shows. Her tools, from the Inter X machine to the Ultrasound and others, lift her sessions way above other massage therapists. Her TABLE is incredible- with a mechanized drop-out shelf for large breasted/implants/after surgery women. Incredibly comfortable! Plus she can tilt the table so my sinuses don't block when I'm on my stomach.

She is intuitive- so she knows where to go based on her knowledge, and years of experience and just gut intuition! The room is very zen and air conditioned (important in Maui summers!) and even the wait room (come early and explore!) has pre-massage tools for you to enjoy! I feel the effects of her massages for days. I leave there thinking, "Should I be driving?" Lol. Driving "Under the Influence" of a Shayla massage!

Honestly the best Massage that i've ever had! I went to Shayla because of pain I was experiencing in my lower back and left hip area. I've been dealing with this pain from a past injury for 6 years and have gone to so many different massage therapist. When I walked in to Shayla's I was having a hard time walking, but by the end of the session was feeling so much better!

That day I was still experiencing some pain, as she told me I would, but by the next day I was feeling nearly 100%! From seriously sharp pain to nearly 100% in a day is a miracle in my eyes. I can't recommend Shayla enough!

We loved Shayla Massage so much my daughter & I both went twice in the week were visiting Kihei. On my initial visit I tried out the massage chair in the waiting room while my daughter had her massage. The chair was amazing! It worked out a deep knot under my shoulder blade before I even went in for my massage. Shayla was then able to give me a nice all over massage without spending so much time in a single area as often happens with me when I go in for massages.

I was also hugely impressed with her massage table which is the most adjustable table I have ever encountered. Ladies if you are at all top heavy you will love the adjustable bust allowance. She was also able to elevate my head a bit so my sinuses didn't entirely plug up during my treatment. Lest you think the only great thing about Shayla is her technology, let me disabuse you of that notion. My massage was excellent. I left feeling quite relaxed and refreshed. On my second visit I tried out the foot massager while I waited which was also nice.

So i just got the best massage of my life. Shayla Massage. Located in Kihei. She has all of the state of the art equipment to assist in the therapy. I felt she truly cared about my concerns and was very informative durning the whole process. I have had sharp pains in my lower back for 2 weeks. After an hour, my back feels 10 years younger and the sharp pains are gone. I can twist and turn once again. Thank you so much!

I like to consider myself as someone who is pretty in tune with my body. I see a PT monthly, Chiropractor a few times a year, and always get regular massage back in my home town. I am currently on vacation in Maui, and have travelled half way around the world with my 2 year old over the last few weeks, so yeah, I needed a good rub down! I read great reviews on Shayla, so decided to check her out.

All I can say is WOW. Best massage I think I have ever had. She goes deep! She is super strong, and really delivered an amazing deep tissue massage for my stressed out muscles. I was super impressed. I'll definitely be back. She's amazing, and clearly has a talent for massage!

My husband and I visited Shayla in May of 2019. Shayla has a gift for understanding the needs of clients. She was able to zero in on the source of our pain and carefully worked the areas until the pain dissipated. She has immense knowledge of the body, its structure and tension points. She guessed my occupation based upon the tension points in my body.

I appreciated her professionalism and her skill set that extended beyond massage to physical therapy. We felt so much better after our treatments that we booked twice during our 10 day vacation. Do yourself a favor and book with Shayla. Christy

Shayla continues to be an integral part of my health and well being team! Her expertise is extensive and her technique is effective. She's responsive to requests for different pressures and all in all such a great communicator! Her massage room is very zen and relaxing and temperature controlled. (Important in the summers here). This is a top notch therapist who really cares about what she does. I highly recommend.

I have cervical degenerative discs and chronic pain for 6 years, seeing Shayla was a breakthrough for me. Shayla understood the origins of pain better than the top 5 neurosurgeons I have seen in LA. She worked many modalities and scenar therapy. I can't thank her enough. She put me on a new path to healing. The problem is finding someone as knowledgable as her when you don't live in Maui. I highly highly recommend seeing her.

Shayla truly has a gift of massage! She is extremely well trained and is very knowledgeable about the body in general. I have been seeing Shayla for about 6 years, everytime we are in Maui (Once a year) for several visits. She can pin point trouble areas in seconds, and uses the trigger points to relieve tight spots. Amazing experience!

Shayla is absolutely amazing! She can heal spots that have been bothering you for a long time. I was experiencing painful muscle spasms in my back caused by a cycling accident years ago. I had seen every doctor and specialist you can imagine, but it was Shayla who made to breakthrough to healing. If you have trouble spots I would recommend a 2 hour massage. I wish I had found Shayla a long time ago!

My time with Shayla was one of the best massages I've ever gotten, and I've received a lot of massages in my time. It was the perfect start to my vacation in Maui, making the rest of my stay magical and relaxing. Her technique was unique and her pressure was excellent. The room was cozy, welcoming and peaceful. I highly recommend Shayla's intuitive touch and healing hands.

One of the best decisions I made while visiting Maui was to get a massage from Shayla! Her treatment was amazing after spending a week in a body that just didn't feel like my own. She helped tremendously with my aches and pains, and even with my 5 day on-going headache. I'll definitely be yelling about Shayla from the rooftops to anyone who's looking for an amazing massage on Maui. I will definitely be back!

Fantastic Lomi Lomi Hawaiian massage. Shayla works out of her house which was done very professionally. My massage was only 50 minutes and I wish I had more time with her. I have had so many massages and this one was right at the top. I will definitely be back.

Best massage on the island. I just had a shoulder replacement and am sore everywhere. She knew just what problem areas to attack all the while protecting my shoulder and I feel like a new person. I've had the pleasure of Shayla's healing hands for several years as I was hooked the first time she worked on me. She's knowledgeable, intuitive and extremely professional and knows how to make the tense muscles melt. If I was on island all the time I would see her every couple weeks. She's the best!

It's been over a month since my last massage - I used to get one every 1-2 weeks because of some significant back and neck issues. We just moved to the island and I started working right away.things couldn't be any more stressful! A coworker recommended Shayla and I am forever grateful! Shayla took time to know me and all my aches and pains. Lomilomi massage is the way to go! She was amazing and I will be back! Mahalo!

Shayla has worked wonders on my shoulder and neck areas. I have suffered from a constant migraine for the past 3 1/2 weeks and she has been the only solution to any relief at all. She addressed the areas directly as I instructed and read my body extremely well. I will definitely be back to visit soon. Mahalo, Michelle

Words are hard to describe what Shayla has done for me. I've dealt with injuries from a lifetime of playing soccer and within two sessions am feeling significant relief and healing. She's been able to pinpoint the problem areas to support healing. A really incredible massage therapist with a variety of tricks for your specific needs. The best massage I have ever received.

Shayla is a pro! I was referred to her by my business partner who had Shayla work on and FIX her aching shoulder. Her expertise in the field of body work, and her 100% commitment to the client, is the beauty of her work. She puts her whole heart and soul into the session and the outcome is a truly healing and wonderful experience. I had called ahead to arrange a couples massage experience.

She worked with my specific needs and planned the session accordingly. I appreciated her flexibility and willingness to really make sure we understood the healing techniques she used. Her space is beautiful, calm and professional- just like her! Thank you Shayla- we WILL be back!

WOW! I just left Shayla. My only regret is that I do not find her the first day I arrived. Magical hands and just an aura of peace. If you live in Maui you're lucky because she close. If you're a visitor I hope you see this before you arrive and have your session set when you land! Thanks Shayla you made my trip!

Shayla is amazing. I was visiting from Oahu and my left shoulder was acting up limiting my movement and mini vacation. I contacted her and got an appointment 2 hours later, she even stayed late to accomodate me. She worked on my shoulder to loosen it up and gave me some tips/exercises to help with alleviating the pain and improving range of motion.

She is great and uses amazing aromatherapy. Awesome service and massage. I was bragging how good the massage to my GF, so she went and got one the next day;her experience was superb as well. Thank you Shayla, next time I am in Maui, I am definitely getting a massage from you. Pors: - Ambiance, very soothing and calm - use of oils: smells and feels amazing - use of different techniques to loosen tight/ stressed muscles - discount for Kama'aina Cons: NONE!

I have had the pleasure of Shayla's massage while in Maui usually once or twice a year for almost 20 years. During that time I've suffered from various ailments including lower back, shoulder and hamstring issues and she has ALWAYS improved my situation. She knows her stuff and provides very personalized attention to whatever areas you need. I always get to 90 minute massage and it's more than worth every cent I spend. Her studio is comfortable and she puts you at ease right away. Can't wait to see her again soon!

I would total recommend this massage place for tourist like myself. It was very welcoming and healing. I get massages in my home town, but the island feel to this massage topped the charts. Also the natural oils like peppermint and lavender really made my skin feel great after all the ocean water damage. She was very friendly and knowledgeable. I walked out feeling better then i have in a long time. Kind of like a natural high from my muscles being soo relaxed. I will book with her when i come back on my next vacation. Mahalo
