Milia was born and raised in Hawaii, and has lived in California, Tennessee, and New York, before moving to North Carolina where she currently makes Asheville her home.

She attended the Swedish institute of Massage Therapy in NYC, which is considered to be the pre-eminant school of massage therapy in the country. It offers the most extensive program available today, with an hourly curriculum that is twice that which is required in NC. Her program gave her a foundation in both eastern and western modalities including; 5 element shiatsu, Swedish massage, myofacial release technique, polarity therapy, cranio-sacral, lymph drainage, sports massage, Thai massage, polarity therapy and tui na.



Since becoming licensed in 2001, Milia has enriched her practice with periodic travels to Thailand to study Thai Massage. She incorporates northern and southern style technique, and has studied at the reputable Wat Po in Bankok. Milia is consistently learning new things to add to her repertoire, including reflexology, kinesiology, and cranio-somatic therapy.
