Hawaiian Experience Spa
Hawaiian Experience Spa is a family owned day spa founded in 2007 and operated in a manner guided by the Hawaiian principle of Aloha. Everything from our guest services to our employment practices to our physical design and marketing systems is driven by the spirit of Aloha. We currently have three Phoenix, AZ area day spas located in Scottsdale, Chandler and Goodyear. Our spas offer a variety of services in the categories of massage therapy, facials and skin care, body treatments and couples’ experiences. Our therapeutic treatments, many of which are unique to our spas, are influenced by Hawaiian traditions, cultural practices and philosophies, and offer a fusion of spiritual and emotional renewing along with scientifically based therapeutic techniques. We are known for our Hawaiian Experience Lomi Lomi Massages which are based on Temple Style Lomi Lomi. All or our massage therapists are trained in lomilomi. We believe in propelling the spa forward by focusing on our ‘ohana (employee) experience as the number one driver of success and growth. The spa owners (one of whom was an LMT for over 10 years) try to foster a workplace that is engaging and rewarding so that each ‘ohana member can have an awesome work experience while delivering a genuine and healing Hawaiian spa experience to our guests.
