Healing Properties of Lomi Lomi
The Hawaiians look at things in terms of energy flow where everything seeks harmony and everything seeks love. They think that an idea or belief can block energy flow as much as muscle tension can. Most massage techniques work only on the physical level however Lomi Lomi massage is not just a physical experience. Lomi lomi also facilitates healing on the emotional, mental and spiritual levels.The nervous system and the senses or awareness are tuned. Lomi lomi may also release old family memories, stress and trauma locked away in the subconscious mind.
Spiritual Healing
The master healers of Hawaii knew there were special ways to release and unblock the powers of the body so that physical, mental, emotional and spiritual healing could take place effectively.
Whilst Lomi Lomi is an important part of the massage, and associated healing the work is done with unconditional enthusiasm. The focus of the practitioner is deeper and complete.

If a client cannot utilize the deep physical touch and needs a softer, energetic approach with chanting and/or herbal remedies, this is also available.
