Lomi Lomi Massage

 

Lomi Lomi simply means 'massage' it is a unique form of massage derived from the ancient Polynesians and more specifically the master healers of Hawaii. Lomi Lomi is known to give healing to the body and mind. The massage is given in fluid, rhythmic motion using the forearms as well as the hands. Most of my clients has described this massage as feeling like gentle waves moving over and underneath the body. What makes this massage so unique is the use of tenhniques where differant parts of the body may be massaged at the same time, for example one arm or hand may be working on a shoulder and the other hand may be working on the opposite hip. This assists the client to be deeply relaxed by massaging the whole body which can create deep sense of balance and harmony.
The massage may be slow and very relaxing or at times it may be a little faster and deeper and therefore more invigorating and enlivening to the body. The client may experience emotional release as the massage can release and shift negative emotions and negative beliefs.
Under body and full body stokes are also used to help free the energy. Gentle stretches of the body and gentle rotations of the joints are therefore also used to help release tensions in the body and help the flow of energy.
