Meet Michael

RN, FF/EMT • Owner

Southgate • Livonia • South Lyon

Michael Malecki, RN, FF/EMT, leads Kneaded Relief Massage & Spa with a perspective shaped by decades of service. He has been a Registered Nurse since 1992, spent about a decade in Detroit Fire Department EMS and continues to serve as a firefighter in Salem Township.

His career has taken him from emergency and trauma care to health care leadership. At Kneaded Relief, he brings the same commitment to professionalism, respect and attentive service that has guided his work with patients and communities.

Under Michael’s ownership, Kneaded Relief expanded its Southgate spa, opened in Livonia and grew into South Lyon. He focuses on building welcoming spaces where licensed professionals have the support to do their best work and guests feel genuinely cared for.

Michael’s role is to set the standard for the experience: capable therapists, thoughtful service and a comfortable place to relax, recover and return.
