What is a Lomi lomi Massage?

“Lomi Lomi” is a traditional Hawaiian Massage that is also known as the 'Loving Hands' Massage.

 

'Lomi Lomi' translates to 'rub rub' in Hawaiian, and reflects the broad, flowing strokes made with the massage therapist's fingers, thumbs, palms, arms, and elbows.

 

Some believe that the healing art of Lomi Lomi is deeply inspired from the practice of ‘Living Aloha’. While others believe that it was brought to Hawaii by the early Polynesian settlers.

 

It is a holistic & rhythmic massage that focuses on a healing touch to release blockages within your body, mind, and your emotions.

 

During the Lomi Lomi Massage you will feel more forearms & elbows are used to give you large broad strokes with a wide range of your body being covered during the treatment.This enables getting rid of any trapped energy within your joints as more stretching and joints rotations are applied.


The long, continuous strokes of the massage are designed to help your body to let go of its old patterns and behaviours, which can cause many stresses and strains as muscle tension.

 

The Lomi Lomi Massage technique works your muscles simultaneously to increases a positive energy flow in your body which in turn encourages the flow of love and harmony.

 

Some other benefits of a Lomi Lomi Massage: Release tension, eliminate waste, rejuvenate the body, assist blood and lymph flow, and stimulate the release of toxins.

 

No two Lomi Lomi Massages are the same. The treatment may be slow and relaxing or faster and more invigorating, depending on how your body responds to it.

 

Your therapist should ask you about your medical history before your treatment begins. It's important to tell them if you are - or think you may be - pregnant.

 

After receiving a Lomi Lomi Massage your body and mind will feel refreshed, relaxed, and renewed enabling a more sense of wellbeing.
