ALOHA

Welcome to your journey of wellness, awareness, excellence, and self-healing.

If you’ve arrived here, it’s because you're seeking something deeper—unmatched excellence in bodywork, freedom from stress, profound relaxation, a path to balance or specialized lymphatic drainage for detox or post-operative healing. Whether you're looking to restore normalcy, accelerate recovery, or simply the space to reconnect with yourself, you’re in the right place.

If you’re a couple seeking to deepen your connection through touch, I’m here for you with thoughtfully designed, unique workshops & retreats.

I’m Edward Miano, a therapist trained in both European and Hawaiian healing traditions, based on Martha’s Vineyard. My practice is rooted in the belief that wellness is a lifelong journey—one that nourishes the body, mind and soul. With this holistic view, I offer a carefully curated selection of healing treatments and complimentary therapies.

Martha’s Vineyard, with its unspoiled beauty and slower pace, provides the perfect setting for deep healing. The island’s natural serenity infuses my work, allowing each session to be an immersive experience that harmonizes the body and mind.

I am committed to providing alternative approaches to stress management, touch deprivation, emotional wellness, and self-care as well as specialized therapeutic care for breast cancer, lymphatic conditions, and prenatal health. I believe in empowering my clients with the tools & choices to embrace balance in their lives, helping you not just heal, but truly thrive. Through the art of touch, I offer more than just therapy—I offer a pathway to peace and well-being.

If something resonates with you, I invite you to explore and make a connection. Take a moment to review my bio page and see if we’re a good fit. I’d be honored to support you on your journey.

With Aloha,
Edward Miano, Founder
