Amanda Angel Kamp, a Licensed Massage Therapist in the state of Hawaiʻi (MAT 12860), has been practicing massage therapy since the spring of 2011 at Elite Massage Academy in Honolulu, HI. Angel has completed over 600 hours of massage therapy curriculum and 420 hands-on clinical hours. She obtained her license in July 2012. She has over a decade of experience as a licensed professional with a background in the following facilities:
Chiropractic offices
Retail & Day Spas
Mobile Out-call Services
Physical Therapy Clinic
Her specialties in massage therapy include trained modalities in Lomi Lomi, Swedish, Deep Tissue, Sports Massage, and Shiatsu.
Born and raised on the island of O'ahu, Angel pursued higher education after massage school where she obtained her Bachelor of Arts in Public Administration with a concentration in Disaster Preparedness & Emergency Management in the Spring of 2020 at the University of Hawaiʻi West Oahu. She is also a Taekwon-Do instructor for Taekwondo Honolulu and the non-profit Hawaii Taekwondo Federation and instructs all age groups, sometimes, with students experiencing a diverse range of limitations due to chronic pain, injury, or lifestyle. It was not uncommon for Angel to apply massage therapy techniques to affected students during this time.
These accumulative life experiences of navigating different environments in massage therapy and other professions led to a personalized approach to balancing a client's area of concern while elevating the journey for the individual.
Angel's main inspiration for bodywork stems from her training as an Instructor at her Taekwon-Do Dojang. She learned that massage therapy and martial arts go quite hand-in-hand: per the quote of her Mentor: "If you can break it, you can fix it, too."
Angel is fully vaccinated and boosted!
