Aloha! Raya Otmanowski is a licensed massage therapist who seamlessly blends the calming effects of Swedish relaxation massage with the precision of therapeutic bodywork to create personalized, goal-oriented sessions. A graduate of the esteemed 600-hour Massage Therapy program at Hawaii’s Healing Arts College in 2022, Raya further honed her skills through additional practice hours at Irene’s Myomassology Institute in Southfield, MI, earning her Michigan license.
Having overcome her own injuries and health challenges, Raya deeply values the body’s innate ability to heal. She feels privileged to guide her clients on their self-healing journeys with compassion and expertise.
Raya's path to holistic health began with a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work, focusing on older adults and individuals with disabilities. Her growing fascination with the connection between body, mind, and spirit inspired her to pursue certifications as a personal trainer and stretch therapist, deepening her commitment to integrative wellness.
Beyond the massage table, Raya thrives on staying active in the gym, enjoying the outdoors, cooking with locally sourced ingredients, thrifting, and giving back to the community. Her dedication to holistic health extends into her lifestyle, continuously exploring ways to integrate nature’s remedies into her practice.
Raya’s intuitive techniques will help you relax and recharge. Drawing inspiration from traditional Hawaiian Lomi Lomi and incorporating targeted deep tissue work, she ensures every session feels nurturing, restorative, and tailored to your unique needs.
