WHAT IS A HAWAIIAN LOMI LOMI MASSAGE TREATMENT?
Hawaiian massage, also known as Lomi Lomi or Ka Huna Massage is an ancient form of massage therapy that treats both the mind and the body. The Hawaiians see all aspects of the body as one and believe the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual are all parts of the individual "whole". Lomi Lomi means "Loving Hands" massage. The reason for this is that it works gently yet deeply into the muscles with continuous flowing strokes, totally nurturing the body and, enabling the recipient to relax, give in and simply be. So whilst technique is an important part of the massage and associated healing, much of the work is done by love, with the focus of the practitioner on the client being deep and complete, using loving hands and a loving heart.
The massage works by stimulating the natural flow of energy. The treatment may be slow and relaxing or faster and invigorating, but is generally deep and rhythmical, using the forearms, heels of hands and elbows in long flowing strokes.
