Hawaiian Massage - Lomi Lomi |
|
|
Aloha (Means "God in us") from Hawaii For centuries the ancient art of Hawaiian Lomi Lomi Massage has been used as a powerful tool for maintaining a healthy way of life. The traditional Hawaiian Massage would combine whole body rhythmic movement with chanting, incorporating deep breathing and application of many different types of oils. In preparation for the Lomi Lomi massage, the recipient would undergo a deep cleansing process which included taking herbal preparations, sweats in the steam vents of the volcano and bathing in the mineral enriched ponds of Hawaii. It is believed that following the cleansing process, Lomi Lomi massage performed by multiple practitioners working at once, would allow the recipient to receive a vision for recognizing their life's purpose. |

Also known as Kahuna bodywork, Practioners work intuitively with clients using their hands, elbows, and forearms to apply long, gliding strokes, rhythmic movements, and pressure. This technique is very nurturing; practitioners acknowledge that love and a pure heart is important to the process, and sometimes the session will begin with a chant or prayer. Sometimes more than one practioner will work on different parts of a client at the same time to facilitate a feeling of wholeness -- a main component of the practice. |
