Ancient Wisdom, Modern Healing
​​
Traditional Old Style Hawaiian Lomi Lomi is more than just a massage; it’s a holistic practice that embodies the spirit of Aloha. Rooted in the healing traditions of Hawaii, this technique blends bodywork with spiritual and emotional connection, creating a transformative experience. With its flowing, rhythmic movements, Lomi Lomi aims to bring balance, harmony, and deep relaxation to both body and mind.
History:
​
Lomi Lomi, which translates to "to knead, rub, or soothe," has been passed down through generations of Hawaiian healers, known as Kahunas. Traditionally, Lomi Lomi was not only a therapeutic treatment but a spiritual practice, performed with prayer and intention. It was used to prepare warriors for battle, aid in childbirth, and mark significant life events, connecting recipients to their ancestors and nature.
​
How It Works:
​
During a Lomi Lomi session, the practitioner uses fluid, rhythmic movements to mimic the gentle waves of the ocean. The long, flowing strokes help to relax the muscles and calm the nervous system. The therapist focuses on fostering a connection with the recipient's mana (life force), encouraging energy flow and emotional release, and enhancing the body's natural healing processes.
Benefits:

"One of the most essential imperatives of this tradition is that Lomi Lomi was a modality of pure love. The work must come from the heart and through the hands resulting in healing and bonding at a level beyond comprehension by the mind; it is a movement of pure love and grace, even to observe a “treatment” is to receive it…. This is the way of traditional Lomi Lomi in the old style." Dawn Charlton
