Lomi lomi massage is a holistic massage in which the whole body is massaged with flowing movements according to Hawaiian tradition. This involves using the forearms, palms, and elbows in a series of alternating techniques. Unlike classical massages, work is not only done on a physical level, but also more deeply on an emotional, mental and spiritual level. Some even experience it as a (trance) journey to the interior of the soul! Lomi lomi massage stems from traditional Hawaiian healing arts and literally means to knead, rub or soothe. It is in fact a massage ritual originally performed by shamanic practitioners, also known as the Kahuna.
