The Massage of Loving Hands Hawaiian Lomi Lomi is a sacred, holistic therapy that honours the mind, body, and soul. Known as the “massage of loving hands,” this treatment uses continuous, rhythmic strokes that flow from head to toe, mimicking the motion of gentle ocean waves.
Unlike traditional massage, Lomi Lomi is a dance-like experience designed to lull your nervous system into a state of profound surrender and peace.
What to Expect To allow for these long, sweeping movements across the full length of the body, draping is minimal compared to a standard massage. You will be uncovered (except for private areas), though you are welcome to wear underwear if you feel more comfortable.
Please Note: This is currently a female-only treatment at Manipura House.
