Lomi Lomi massage is Hawaiian healing tradition. The knowledge has been handed down through the ages from family to family.

 

In Hawaiian, “Lomi Lomi” means “to weave, to massage ”.  

A session begins with a flying dance ritual and intention setting. The massage engages mindful touch which uses the soft part of the forearms and hands to run continuously along the whole body without disconnection. The strokes are long gentle flow and unpredictable. They were designed to soothe the conscious mind to promote letting go of what no longer serves the clients.   Lomi touch is nurturing, compassionate and respectful.

 

To practitioners, Lomi Lomi is more than just a massage technique. Lomi Lomi is a life style. Lomi Lomi is a practice of living life of harmony and balance. Lomi practitioners learn to develop spiritual connections - connection to the source, connection to Ohana (spiritual family/ people/ all the livings), connection to Aina ( our land or Mother Earth). Lomi Lomi is a practice of being present. Breath work is also used to cultivate mindfulness and to circulate life force.

 

Lomi Lomi practitioner learn self-healing which includes Ho’oponopono (a system to resolve conflicts) and Huna Hawaiian principles (a system that creates balance, flow and harmony by being in alignment and expressing truth). We learn the process of healing ourselves before we assist in the healing process of others. Practitioners are also trained to hold a safe space, letting any emotions of clients that may arise in the session be sacred without judging. 

 

The session ends with a ritual which symbolizes a rebirth to a refreshed state of consciousness or new life.

 

To clients, the massage feels like a wave of gentle, nurturing, caring touch. The experience is very relaxing. Some clients come to receive Lomi Lomi just for relaxation and others request Lomi Lomi because it is the modality that integrates spiritual healing aspect. 

 

Lomi Lomi is a spiritual massage that encompasses emotional & spiritual, and not just a physical aspect . Lomi Lomi symbolizes letting go of the old energy and a rebirth of new life.  Due to mind-body connection, it is possible for some people to experience emotional release while the body is being touched. In such case, I professionally hold a safe space with compassion and without judging.

 

To me, Lomi Lomi is a practice of being present.

Lomi Lomi  integrates massage with my spirituality, my passion in ocean and dancing. It allows me to express my creative authentic self. Lomi Lomi teaches me to live life in alignment with my truth, how to hold space, how to facilitate the healing processes of myself and my clients. It encourages me to live Aloha. 

 

Lomi Lomi connected me with wonderful supporting Oha'na (other Lomi practitioners which we consider our extended family). Our family includes not only humans but also animals, trees, living things, planet earth, environment  and everything is interconnected. 

 

 We are portal of light and I'm very honored to be a part of this beautiful work.

 

 

I started Lomi trainings in 2012 and continue to grow and expand. My lineage "Temple style " is of Abraham Kawai'i . I studied with Tom Cochran ( Sacred Lomi) , Jody Mountain ,  Gloria Coppola, Carrie Curtis and Maggie Walsh. My current mentor is Kahuna Mist ,Gaylene Aitken. I acknowledge all my teachers and their teachings. I am grateful for all the knowledge and wisdom passed to me.

I hope to see you and share the love of my work with you.
