Nikki M.

Licensed Massage Therapist

Works in Scottsdale

Aloha! My name is Nikki McDaniel. I became a licensed massage therapist in March of 2010 and I attended the Arizona School of Massage Therapy where I received 1000 hours of training. Upon graduating, I enrolled in their Master Bodyworker Program in Tempe where I learned
more specific techniques of massage and concepts of how the body functions as a whole. While I was in school, I volunteered to do a lot of events involving chair massage where I gained more experience in that area. Modalities that I have learned and practice include Swedish massage, Structural Bodywork, Trigger Point, Reflexology, Shiatsu, Injury massage, Cranial Sacral Therapy, Russian Sports massage, and Hydrostone Therapy. My main modality and favorite is the Temple style Lomi Lomi massage. This Hawaiian massage perfectly complements my creativity and energy. I also enjoy expanding this creativity and working with another one of our therapists, Barbara, in doing Double Lomi’s. I love making people feel great and tailoring everything I do to their specific needs; it is one of my many strengths in this field.

Prior to becoming an LMT I was attending North Canyon High School. I graduated with honors
in 2009. I now attend Paradise Valley Community College where I will soon be doing their
Nursing program. Being a massage therapist will benefit me greatly in my next career choice and
will stick with me throughout the rest of my life. I am so honored to be a part of this team here at
Hawaiian Experience Spa and I cannot wait to see where this takes me next!
