The Bliss Lomi Lomi Massage…
What we offer is far beyond other massage styles – it combines thousands of years of expert know-how about the physical body and the interplay of the mind, the emotions and spiritual connection in feeling happy, healthy and well.
What to expect….
In a Traditional Lomi Lomi Massage, the whole body is treated.
Unlike many massage techniques, Lomi Lomi clients are traditionally unclothed but respectfully draped at all times. The idea is to remove any barriers to the full body strokes of the massage.
Exotic and aromatic organic coconut oil of the finest quality soothes the skin, the body and the mind, leaving the entire body feeling refreshed, cleaned, nourished, invigorated and luminous.
A Lomi Lomi usually commences with a stillness between the practitioner and client, often with the practitioners hands gently resting on the clients back. In this stillness the practitioner will quietly say a blessing or prayer asking for whatever healing is needed to take place during the massage. Alternatively or as well, the client may be asked to set their intention for any healing they would like to receive. The masseuse then works very intuitively with the client.
This very traditional Hawaiian massage works deeply into the tissues and muscles, gently warming them with a combination of long, flowing, languid strokes lulling the body and mind into a state of deep, hypnotic-like relaxation.
The gentle, yet firm, long flowing strokes of Traditional Old Style Hawaiian Lomi Lomi increase your sense of wellbeing whilst at the same time helping to release tight spots caused by postural issues, stress, tension and fatigue. Lomi Lomi is a full body experience, back, shoulders, arms, legs, stomach, face, head, hands, feet…
…nothing and no part of you is forgotten or left out.
In preparation…
In order for you to experience optimum benefit from your Lomi Lomi it is advised that you do not be in a rush.
Arrive a little early, allow yourself to settle into the coming experience. New clients will be also asked to fill out some introductory paperwork, so please allow an extra 5mins+ prior to your session time for this.
As Lomi Lomi does include facial massage, arriving makeup free, where possible, is also preferable.
Afterwards your entire body feels peaceful, refreshed, free, revitalised and energetically restored.
Remember that harmony sometimes takes time, and whilst the typical Bliss Lomi Lomi massages are scheduled for 1.5 & 2 hour sessions, you will need to feel ‘grounded’ again before driving or rushing back into your day.
It is also highly recommended that you increase your water intake for several hours after your Lomi Lomi — this will help facilitate your body’s removal of any released toxins.
