Hawaiian Lomi Lomi


Lomilomi is the word used today to mean "massage therapist" or "Hawaiian massage." In the Hawaiian language, the word used traditionally, called lomi, means "to rub, knead, press, squeeze, massage; to work in and out, as the claws of a contented cat" - Wikipedia
Although, once a exclusive massage modalities that is taught only amongst the Hawaiian heritage, Hawaiian Lomilomi is now a common and popular massage modality throughout the world, especially in Hawaii, Japan and Europe.
I happened to be lucky and trained with one of the best Hawaiian teacher to learn the most Authentic traditional style of Lomi Lomi.
Lomi Lomi consists of the techniques of oils rubbed and massage with the palms, elbows, forearms, and sometimes feet using a gliding movement rather than a pinpointed pressure. It can be acquired as a light relaxation massage or it can be performed as a deep tissue massage. The movements are intimate, but strictly professional.
Unlike Swedish, I massage the body according to muslces insertions and origins. Unlike Swedish massage that focuses mainly on the direction of the heart flow , in Hawaiian lomi lomi, it is perfectly okay to go against.
