HAWAII

 NOTE: These are recommendations for massage therapists in Hawaii who are not my students. Mostly, they are therapists that other massage therapists have recommended to me.   I am including them here because so many folks ask me for recommendations of LMTs to get a massage from when they visit Hawaii.
