Lomi Lomi Hawaiin Massage
For centuries the Kahunas, wise spiritual teachers of ancient Hawaii, worked with a magical form of bodywork. Gently but effectively connecting with the inner soul, relieving the stress of Physical ailments as well as clearing emotional blocks.
Lomi Lomi can release hidden memories and allow change in your body, mind and soul, bringing balance and harmony. The massage changes the way you think, feel, move and breathe.
On a physical level: the lymphatics, immune, circulatory, respiratory, muscular and digestive systems are treated to promote health.
On an emotional level: the nervous system and the senses or awareness are tuned. The bodywork may also release past life memory, stress and trauma locked away in the subconscious mind.
On a spiritual level: achieving harmony between the body, mind and soul through energy activated in the body.
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 the technique is an important part of the massage, and associated healing the work is done with unconditional love. The focus of the practitioner is deep and complete. Feeling love and compassion for the client, rather than treating him/her as an object to be ‘fixed’ allows for harmony to be created within the body. This incorporates two of the main principles of huna – everything seeks harmony and everything seeks love.
Lomi Lomi is also called ‘loving hands massage’ and works gently but deeply into the muscles using continuous flowing strokes totally nurturing the body. The practitioner uses the forearm fingers, heel and palm of the hand in flowing movements over the body that brings fresh oxygen to every cell.
Flowing with total energy and combined with a very loving touch, relaxes the entire being. Using one of the principles of huna-Makia which states that energy flows where attention goes, the focus is totally on the client. This initiates a ‘letting go of old belief patterns and behaviours that are not appropriate and cause limitations’
The Hawaiians see life in terms of energy flow. Following this premise, an idea or belief can block energy flow. Using body and energy work helps release the blockages, while at the same time, gives energy new direction and sets new patterns. This results in mental clarity and physical release, thereby allowing powerful healing in yourself and your life. This creates a new level of harmony and facilitates healing on many levels, levels you may not be aware of at the time.
