Kahilea

Lead Massage Therapist

Hiiii, I’m Kahilea or Lea (most people call me that)— Licensed Massage Therapist and founder of EvansEssence Cleaning & Wellness. I graduated from Southeastern Institute in 2009 and have been a Licensed Massage Therapist since. I'm originally from Buffalo, NY but I've lived in the Charlotte area for many years and both feel like home to me. I love the snow, but I appreciate a Charlotte winter! My most important job is being a mom to 2 boys! I’ve always been passionate about helping people feel good from the inside out. It is my hope that you are able to feel the love I have not only for what I do, but for the people I'm blessed to care for. That's YOU!! Currently, I have the honor to serve as the Lead Massage Therapist at The Head Spa Sanctuary, where I have the privilege of working alongside an incredible team dedicated to holistic care, relaxation, exceptional guest experiences and creativity. I specialize in a variety of massage modalities including, deep tissue, hot stone, prenatal/postnatal, and sports massage. I truly enjoy customizing each session to the individual. Every massage is intentional—crafted to meet your body’s unique needs and leave you feeling seen, relaxed, and renewed. Through my dual passion for healing touch and tidy spaces, I help clients create balance both inside and out. Whether you’re looking to melt away stress on the massage table or breathe easier in a freshly cleaned home, I’m here to support your journey to comfort, clarity, and total well-being. I enjoy spending time with family and friends, learning and creating new things, experiencing new foods, going to museums, cooking with the boys, listening to different music, thriller shows and movies, and taking time to appreciate our Creator!
