Lomi Ka’ala Hoku or Lomi Lomi massage, is an energetic healing modality based on the ancient Hawaiian concept of working with the life force of an individual to promote health and well-being. Lomi Ka’ala Hoku translates to “Massage Journey to the Stars” which reflects the intention of this massage, which is to calm the mind in order to heal the body. In this course students learn how to give the traditional, full-body Lomi Lomi massage as well as advanced strokes. They also practice releasing all prejudice and ego so they can come from a place of total acceptance of their client’s uniqueness, and where they are in their life’s journey. The energy work behind this style of bodywork comes from ancient Hawaiin teachings of personal empowerment, and was taught in the Hawaiian Temple for generations. Known as “Temple bodywork” Lomi Lomi is the most common form of “Hawaiian Massage” being done outside the Hawaiian Islands.
