Lomi Hawaiian Massage (Lymphatic)

Lomi Hawaiian massage, a traditional Hawaiian technique, offers a unique and profound healing experience. Imagine the sensation of ocean waves sweeping across your body, releasing tension and stress. This massage is not just a physical treatment but a holistic approach that connects body, mind, and spirit.

What is Lomi Hawaiian Massage?

Lomi Hawaiian massage, also known as Lomi Lomi, is a sacred and restorative massage that uses gentle, flowing strokes to work deeply into the muscles. The continuous, rhythmic movements help the body release old patterns and behaviours that contribute to stress and tension. By activating meridians and energy points, this massage facilitates the body’s natural healing processes.

The Unique Technique

The “Old Style” Lomi combines various techniques, including the “laying on of hands,” both passively and actively. The rhythm is paramount and often hypnotic, leading to a state of stillness in both the therapist and the recipient. This stillness allows true healing to manifest, as the therapist acts as a conduit for life force, or Mana, to flow into the recipient.

Benefits of Lomi Lomi Massage

Lomi Lomi massage offers a wide range of benefits, including:

• Full Body Relaxation: A comprehensive massage from head to toe.
• Improved Circulation: Enhances blood flow throughout the body.
• Lymphatic Drainage: Promotes detoxification and cleansing of the lymphatic system.
• Tissue Release: Addresses both soft and deep tissue tension.
• Organ Rejuvenation: Supports the health and function of vital organs.
• Pain Relief: Alleviates physical discomfort and pain.
• Stress Reduction: Eases stress and tension, promoting relaxation.
• Emotional Healing: Helps release emotional blockages.
• Harmony and Well-being: Instills a sense of peace and overall well-being.

A Tradition of Healing

Lomi Lomi massage has roots in a tradition that spans hundreds of years. Traditionally, Hawaiian mothers would massage their infants from birth, using coconut oil, one of the most healing substances. This practice fostered extraordinary health and strength. Lomi Lomi is performed with an open hand, kneading, squeezing, and softening the body.

The essence of Lomi Lomi is pure love. The massage must come from the heart and be delivered through the hands, creating a deep bond and healing that goes beyond the physical. Even observing a Lomi Lomi session can be a healing experience.

Conclusion

Lomi Hawaiian massage offers a unique and powerful way to heal and rejuvenate the body, mind, and spirit. Its gentle yet deep techniques promote relaxation, detoxification, and overall well-being.
