Welcome to Body Balance Massage Therapy!

We are located in Honolulu, Hawaii at 1525 Kalākaua Avenue inside of Superhuman Health Technologies & Therapies.

Our practice focuses on therapeutic massage therapy, muscle relief and result-based treatments. Our primary specialty is Ashiatsu Therapy, which in Japanese means "foot pressure." Ashiatsu utilizes the feet to provide a broad, smooth surface with consistent pressure. We also specialize in Medical Massage Therapy, a format that doctors and practitioners follow by pinpointing specific muscle groups and injuries. We do offer a variety of other techniques; you can view our full list of services below.

Do you have medical insurance benefits that covers massage therapy? We may be a providing practitioner! We are accepting new patients with Hawaii Medical Assurance Association (HMAA/HWMG), No-Fault Insurance (Auto-Motor Accident), and Workers’ Compensation insurance. Contact us today to learn more!

What Clients Have Said

  • Matthew O.

    ALL-IN-ONE service. Tenisha was friendly, great at addressing areas of concern and very professional. She uses Ashiatsu technique; in my opinion gives THE BEST pressure and consistency. Hot rocks and cupping are my usual add ons, totally worth it! Overall highly recommended, absolute game changer.

  • Lyn K.

    I’ve had many massages done in the past but they were not as effective or pleasant as The massages Tenisha does. She is very professional and knowledgeable in what she does. I had fallen down and could hardly walk without pain. She targeted the area causing the main and tried different methods to alleviate the pain. My pain comes and goes but it is much less in intensity and duration. She taught me how to take care of the area by myself in between visits. I am so blessed to have found her.

  • Kristine W.

    Tenisha has been my massage therapist for years now and I can't imagine my life without her treatments. She has seen me through shoulder injuries, neck pain, muscle pain and more. She is intuitive and thoughtful of her movements during sessions. I tend to hold stress in my body and massage helps me release all that and feel new again. I would recommend Tenisha to whoever needs bodywork (which is everyone!).

  • Mika K.

    Excellent services and massage! Tenisha is so friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about her work :) It's always nice to ask questions about my back pain and ways to help remedy it. Support local!

  • Iolani C.

    The massage was amazing! Prior to coming to Body Balance my shoulders, neck, and back were very tight from stress. Tenisha worked out the kinks and knots and I felt so relaxed afterwards. She is also friendly and professional. I highly recommend her services!

  • Sarah M.

    Tenisha is fabulous and is really great about listening to my needs prior to the session and really working to ensure those needs are met. I'm super grateful to have found her and highly recommend her to others!

  • Jenn L.

    Tenisha is a great therapist who pays great attention to detail and your needs. Her quality of touch is very nurturing, warm, and pressure is perfect. Ashiatsu is so grounding and relaxing. My body really felt so good after a visit with Tenisha! Highly recommended. (I'm also a bodyworker myself and very picky. She's intuitive and talented.)
    Thanks, girl! Looking forward to seeing you the next time I'm on Oahu!

    Tenisha is amazing and very knowledgeable. She really tries to address your problems and needs. I look forward to my massages with Tenisha. I highly recommend.

  • Graeme G.

    Tenisha is professional, skillful, and has good communication skills. Have significant medical need type problems, she intuitively put me in position to minimize discomfort from my existing problem set, and helped take my existing pain down by a good degree. Felt fortunate to have lucked into a pretty short term available slot.

  • Anonymous

    Tenisha is very professional, knowledgeable and caring with her skill. Her services are life saving to my recovery from double hip surgery vs the physical therapy. My muscle and nerves are better managed to allow me to return to work during recovery. I feel very satisfied. Thank you Tenisha.

  • Mona M.

    Tenisha is very professional, knowledgeable, warm and gives you a sense of comfort with accomplishment! She is determined to succeed in making my goals of my body feel better.

Meet Your Therapist

Aloha! My name is Tenisha Kane.

I graduated from Aloha School of Massage Therapy and earned my license in 2017. After moving from my home island of Maui to Oahu in search of more opportunities, I worked at North Shore Ashiatsu and Massage with Abby Parker; it was there that I found my passion in ashiatsu. As a former soccer athlete, my feet are more consistent than my hands and forearms - no more tired hands and sharp boney elbows! 99% of my clients tell me that once they tried ashiatsu, they could never go back. 

I opened my own practice in 2020, but unfortunately had to close down due to challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, in 2022 I was able to reopen my practice and move to a new location, and now I have more motivation and determination than ever before!

My defining reason for becoming a massage therapist is my strong sense of wanting to help people. I sustained many soccer injuries over the years, and I’ve always remembered the gratitude I felt toward the trainers and therapists who took care of me. Now, it’s my turn to help as many people as I can to relieve the tension, aches, and pain in their lives. One of the best feelings as a therapist is having clients tell you how much better they feel after getting worked on. I invite you to come and enjoy a massage here at Body Balance - I hope to see you soon!
