The basic info on yourself and spa or salon:
Maui Ocean Spa has been offering Maui’s ‘upcountry’ patrons incredible alternative healing and spa options since 2004. In the beginning it started off as a humble one-room facility shared with a chiropractic doctor. It is now a 4-room spa shared with over 15-20 professional healers in the heart of Makawao.
The Maui Ocean Spa Service Menu provides the usual spa items such as body massages, body scrubs and aeshetic treatments but can now, due to it’s expansion, provide the community with an array of different alternative therapies such as; rolfing, reiki, cupping, gemstone healing, facial acupuncture, homeopathy, ear coning, sound healing, color therapy and cranialsacral. And don’t forget to ask for a great complimentary “add-ons” like; tea tree scalp conditioning, peppermint & vanilla foot soaks, hot eucalyptus scented towels, hot stones with rosemary & lavender essential oils, and aromatherapy using DoTerra Essential Oils.
Maui Ocean Spa also offers hair design, nails and make up services, including most recently; permanent make-up and Henna tattoo. This service is perfect for that special event, speaking of which, they also have Detox & Revitalize Pre-Wedding packages.
