The Onajin Signature Massage was conceptualized and developed by the HiMAS training staff for use in the Onajin Spa in General Santos City. It uses wooden sticks of varying lengths and diameters to provide deep tissue work and enhance relaxation. The massage treats the whole individual, beginning with a light oil massage to relax muscles and calm the mind, followed by a deeper blend of western and eastern techniques accentuated by a unique Filipino touch. Practitioners must have background in Swedish massage, foot reflex, shiatsu and accupressure, and it takes months or years of rigorous instruction to truly master the Onajin massage.
