WHAT TO EXPECT FROM LOMI LOMI MASSAGE

  • The therapist will begin the lomi lomi massage by placing their hands gently on you and remaining still for a few moments. They may ask you to breathe deeply to help you relax.
  • Often, more of your body is uncovered during this massage than during a typical Swedish or deep tissue massage. That’s because therapists  move in long flowing motions that, for example, may start at the top of your shoulder and go all the way to your foot. The therapist uses no sheets, covering your genital area and breasts with small towels.
  • Lomi lomi is best known for long, flowing, dance-like strokes, often using the forearms and generous amounts of oil but is your choice if you want oil to be used or not. Gentle stretches and joint rotations are common in this massage, as is the massage therapist massaging two parts of your body at same time, for example, using one hand or forearm on your shoulder while simultaneously massaging a hip with the other hand or forearm.
  • Both massaging two areas at the same time and the long flowing strokes are believed to promote harmony and balance in your body.
  • During the session the therapist may incorporate techniques from other type of massage. To get in the flow of lomi lomi the therapist will have playing sounds of surf and ocean.

The therapist will bring with them massage table, table sheets, oils, aromatherapy scents, towels and music. You can use your own sheets and towels if you prefer it that way. Make sure you have a place for the table to be placed and enough room for therapist to go around it.
