The Kahuna Lomilomi is an expert in healing the body through touch. There are many different styles of lomilomi, but they all are founded on the belief that all creation is connected and divine. Lomilomi massage utilizes rhythmic, relaxing techniques that soothe, and vigorous techniques that revive the body. As a result, circulation is increased in the blood and lymphatic systems that assist in the elimination of toxins from the body. Hawaiians believe the intent of the practitioner is an essential element in the healing power of the massage.
Lomilomi practitioners use oils in their healing.
