Hawaiian Lomi Lomi and Huna Massage with Therapist Brian Lawrence (Dip. Hawaiian Massage)
What is it?
Hawaiian Lomi Lomi massage is a luxurious full-body massage that lasts for about one hour. Exotic oils are used in the massage to deliver the ultimate in relaxation, de-stressing and de-toxification. It should leave you feeling completely chilled, balanced and at peace with the world.
Originally performed as a sacred healing ritual in ancient Hawaii, Hawaiian massage is also known as Lomi Lomi or Huna massage and was renowned for restoring health and well-being. Receiving such a massage is therefore an extraordinarily, beautiful and unforgettable experience. Hawaiian massage creates relaxed body alignment, which, in turn, offers long term safety to the client’s muscles and joints, preventing overuse and strain. Not only does an Hawaiian massage keep a person youthful and physically fit, it is energising, fulfilling and inspiring.
How is it done?
The practitioner uses his hands and forearms with his bodyweight moving to the continuous rhythm of basic Hula dance steps. Working with oils, long and flowing strokes are made up and down the length of the body, giving the impression of many hands massaging simultaneously as greater contact with larger surface areas stimulate deep and meaningful sensory communications. Visually beautiful, these unfamiliar and highly mobile movements allow him to move from one side of the table to the other. Reaching the full length of the body, back and front, the wide range of unusual strokes that are the signature of Hawaiian massage are easily and consistently given throughout the massage session.
Our Hawaiian massage concludes with a sensitive and gentle face and neck massage to beautifully complete the feeling of well-being.
For spa days, a back of body only, Hawaiian Lomi Lomi massage is also offered where the client remains on their front throughout the massage. This treatment lasts for about 30 minutes and can also be used as an introduction to the full Hawaiian massage.
Who should come?
Lovers of any form of massage, or even those new to massage therapy, will appreciate the uniqueness of this flowing, non-stop full body massage. Hawaiian massage is suitable for all those who wish to feel completely relaxed and nourished and at one with themselves and the world. It will release tensions and stress and create a feeling of all round physical and spiritual well being.
Respect will be given to the usual conditions for which therapeutic massage is considered inappropriate or should be given with great care.
and afterwards?
Clients have claimed they have simply floated out of the room following one of these luxury treatments. Unique and usually only obtainable in expensive spas this is a rare opportunity to enjoy an exotic and memorable massage at an affordable price. Make no mistake; the Lomi Lomi massage will be like no other massage you have had before and should be repeated regularly to gain full benefits.
