[Lomi Lomi]

Lomi Lomi is a traditional Hawaiian method of oil massage treatment for muscle stiffness. As a technique, not only the hands but also the elbows are used to apply deep pressure to the muscles. Stronger pressure can be obtained than aroma massage (Swedish massage), which promotes the flow of lymph.

Originating in Hawaii, Lomi Lomi has become known as a healing relaxation treatment. Originally, it was a ceremony dedicated to the gods that only the royal family was allowed to receive, and has a history of over 1000 years. The technique was a special technique handed down orally within a family of priests called Kahuna, who had been selected for generations. In Hawaii, it was believed that no treatment could cure an illness or injury unless the mind and soul were healed. It was said that healing the body would only come true if the mind was freed from anger, sorrow, tension, sin, etc., so it was a secret spiritual technique, but since the 1970s, only that skill has become commonplace. It has become popular. As a technique, not only the hands but also the elbows are used to apply deep pressure to the muscles. Stronger pressure can be obtained than aroma massage (Swedish massage), which promotes the flow of lymph. This Lomi Lomi is recommended for those who are concerned about body stiffness.
