Healing Hands Is Miami-Dade’s Favorite Massage Spa (And We’re Still Pinching Ourselves)

Every so often, something happens that makes you stop, take a breath, and feel deeply grateful. This is one of those moments.

 

We’re honored (and honestly a little giddy) to share that Healing Hands has been named the FIRST PLACE, Gold Medal winner for Miami-Dade’s Favorite Massage Spa in the 2025 Miami-Dade Favorites contest. 🥇

This recognition means more to us than we can say, because it wasn’t decided by a panel of judges or industry insiders. It was decided by the people who matter most: our community.

 

What Is Miami-Dade Favorites?

If you’re not familiar, Miami-Dade Favorites is an annual, countywide “best of” contest that celebrates the local businesses, people, and places that make Miami-Dade such a vibrant place to live.

It’s entirely community-voted, and this year it was bigger than ever. With hundreds of categories ranging from food and beauty to services and experiences, the contest drew more than 370,000 votes across the county.

In the Health & Beauty category alone, dozens of massage spas were nominated. Many of them are excellent, well-established businesses, and we were proud just to be included among them. To come out on top is something we don’t take lightly.

 

A Little Context (because this win feels extra sweet)

Last year, in 2024, we earned the Silver Medal, an achievement we were incredibly proud of. We’ll admit, though, that it stung a little to be edged out by a certain “envious” massage franchise whose fifteen locations were allowed to compete as a single entity.

So yes — this year’s Gold Medal win feels especially meaningful. 💛 It’s a reminder that a locally owned, independent spa can stand shoulder to shoulder with big brands when it’s backed by an amazing community. 🙏

 

This Win Belongs to You

If you voted for us – once, twice, or after a friendly nudge from someone you know – thank you!

• Thank you for taking a moment out of your day to help our small business.
• Thank you for sharing the link, reposting on social media, or texting it to friends and family.
• Most of all, thank you for trusting us with your “me time”, your recovery, your stress relief, and your self-care.

Healing Hands has always been about more than massage. It’s about connection, consistency, and showing up for people in the best possible way. This award tells us that message is resonating, and that means everything. 🥹

 

What’s Next?

Besides celebrating (and maybe smiling a little every time we see our gold medal), we’re channeling this momentum into what we do best – delivering thoughtful, high-quality therapeutic massage that truly makes a difference.

And yes, because we’re feeling the love, we’ve brought back our Black Friday discount for a limited time as a small thank-you to everyone who supports us. Details are available in our newsletter, and the offer runs through December 20, 2025.

 

From the Bottom of Our Hearts

Thank you, Miami-Dade, for voting Healing Hands your favorite. We don’t promise to ever open fifteen locations 😉 — but we do promise to keep showing up with the integrity, skill, and care that you know and trust. 🙏

 

With gratitude,
The Healing Hands Team
