The Hawaiian islands are the 50th and most recent state of the USA and of course the ultimate place to study Hawaiian Lomi Lomi Massage. Yet, there are quite a number of massage academies to be found, of which some provide classes in Traditional Thai Massage.
For most of the learning centers on Hawaii (spread over the various islands Niihau, Kauai, Oahu, Molokai, Lānai, Kahoolawe, Maui, and the Island of Hawaii), Thai massage education is only one of the offerings and not their main focus. In this article we’ll take a look at two of the more notable Thai Massage training centers in Hawaii.
