The Philosophy of the Lomi Lomi Massage

An insight and understanding of the core and depth of the Lomi Lomi can be done by having an understanding of the Hawaiian philosophy called Huna, and how the philosophies of Huna relate to bodywork and healing.

The core belief of the Huna is that everything seeks harmony and everything seeks love. This is then related to the Lomi Lomi massage. How? Well, this can best be understood by one of the alternate names for Lomi Lomi, and that is “Loving Hands” massage. This is because in a Lomi Lomi massage, the practitioner works gently yet deeply into the muscles with continuous, flowing strokes, totally nurturing the body and, enabling the recipient to relax, give in and simply be.

Therefore, as techniques is an important part of the massage and associated healing, much of the work is done by love, with the focus of the practitioner on the client being deep and complete, using loving hands and a loving heart. This makes the Hawaiian Lomi Lomi massages a technique which brings about physical as well as mental relaxation.

According to the Huna philosophy, the mind and the body are invariably interlinked and mutually interdependent. Good health depends on having both aspects in a harmonious balance. Lomi Lomi massages seeks to rid the body of physical and mental stresses, and free up the energy flow, and is done with combination of prayers, breathing techniques and intuitive massage strokes.
