Recently, I received multiple messages from people asking for a “quick one-hour Lomi session.” This made me reflect on how different forms of bodywork serve different intentions—and how important it is to share the essence of my offering.
Beyond Technique: Lomi Lomi as a Practice of Deep Presence
For me, Lomi Lomi is not only a highly effective relaxation technique—it is a practice of deep presence and connection. Rooted in ancient Hawaiian healing traditions, it is designed to restore balance and harmony on multiple levels—physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and energetic.
Unlike most deep tissue massage techniques, which primarily focus on releasing muscle tension in specific areas, Lomi Lomi takes a holistic approach, touching the whole being. Along with a highly effective technique of long, flowing strokes and joint rotations goes a state of deep presence and connection—creating a space for profound acceptance, healing, and transformation.
Acceptance—The Heart of Lomi Lomi
One of the most powerful aspects of Lomi Lomi is the unwavering acceptance between giver and receiver. It is a touch that goes beyond technique—it reaches the core of one’s being. It embraces not only the physical body but also the emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of the person, supporting whatever is ready to be healed, released, or transformed.
When held in an open and accepting space, the body and mind naturally begin to unwind, recalibrate, and heal in their own way. This healing can be purely physical—easing muscular pain, improving circulation, and relieving stress—but it may also reach deeper layers, supporting emotional or mental release, energetic realignment, or even profound life shifts.
This is the Lomi Lomi I practice and teach my students. It is also why I offer only one session per day—because this work requires deep focus and full presence.
Honouring Different Approaches to Bodywork
I want to be clear: I deeply respect and appreciate all forms of massage and bodywork. Every modality serves a different purpose, and all are valuable in their own way.
There are times when a targeted deep tissue massage to relieve muscle tension in a specific area is exactly what I need. Other times, a shorter relaxation session is the perfect way to unwind after a long day. But if I am looking for something that embraces my whole being—something that reaches deep and touches my essence—my first choice is Lomi Lomi, experienced with a skilled and dedicated practitioner.
Lomi Lomi is not just a treatment—it is a journey. It is an invitation into deep connection, acceptance, and transformation.
