Lomi Lomi Nui Training leads to higher self-acceptance and celebration of life. In effect, your life becomes fuller, richer, and more juicy. Experience this transformation!
In ancient times, the massage was performed by Kahunas (priests and guardians of mystical knowledge and healing system) in order to transform and fully release all aspects of the “self” to achieve harmony and flow in being. They combined the massage with dancing around a stone altar, and sounds of healing rhythms. The ritual was usually performed for the chosen ones – especially those who were to govern the community. It lasted many hours and sometimes even days.
Lomi Lomi Nui massage is based on intuitive movements, breathing, and focused intention. The session begins and ends with setting the intention to heal the person receiving it. It is performed using long strokes along and across the body, up and down. The characteristic feature of this massage is that the massage therapist uses their forearms, hands, and elbows in dynamic, deep movements that imitate the ebb and flow of the ocean. During the session, the massage therapist dances around the client with great harmony and grace, creating a beautiful spectacle. The massage is done not only on the physical body but also on the energy body surrounding it.
During the training, you will get to know the philosophy of Huna and the 7 Hawaiian principles, as well as the structure of the Lomi Lomi Nui massage. By giving and receiving massage sessions, you will learn different styles of Lomi, broadening your creativity and intuition.
On the physical level, it stimulates circulation of the blood, digestion, skeletal and genitourinary systems, and soothes pain. The massage impacts the psychological state – in a natural and gentle way it brings positive balance, beauty, joy, harmony, and love by developing a real potential.
Lomi Lomi Nui harmonizes energy centers, restores balance and unity of the mind and body, releases tension and blockages in the muscles, and fosters self-acceptance and joy in life.
