Lomi Lomi Massage – A Personal Sense of Peace

People come to me for massage for many reasons. They are looking for relief of pain or anxiety and a brief, but much-needed, escape from the stress life throws at them.

No matter the reason, I assure my clients a safe and peaceful place on my table. I reinforce that the time we share is all about them and only them. I make sure that they are comfortable and physically supported on my table. The music and the flowing movements give them the opportunity to drift off to wherever they wish to go.

Massage like no other, provides relief from physical, emotional, and mental stress, and decreases levels of depression, anxiety, irritability, and other symptoms. By soothing the body and calming the mind, massages can provide relief, allowing the prefrontal cortex to regain balance and better manage emotions. Massage also provides a calming effect by increasing endorphins, serotonin and dopamine giving a person a sense of well-being and reduced anxiety.

The exquisite movements of Lomi Lomi are particularly geared to a feeling of deep calm and peacefulness. People are different afterwards. They often say they feel taller, freer, more open and overall, more serene. Some are more alert and ready to take on the day. Others just want to revel in the tranquil feeling and rest for a while longer. Lomi Lomi massage feels like magic but can be explained scientifically. All I can say is, I see it every time I do one. It makes me feel appreciated and happy knowing that I can offer this to my clients. Do you need some time just for you?

I am a massage therapist and Gokhale Method® Teacher I do Hawaiian Lomi Lomi Massage simply for this reason- "It is the most relaxing massage that I have ever received and in turn, it is what I want to share with others." Lomi Lomi involves long rhythmic strokes as well as deep work relaxing the body, mind and spirit on all levels. I thoroughly love giving this massage. I am also a Gokhale Method Teacher. This method is based on the Book "8 Steps to a Pain Free Back" by Esther Gokhale. Primal Posture™ and alignment for Pain-Free living. After discovering this method for myself, I wanted to teach people how they could help themselves when they are off of my table. Many of my clients suffer from chronic or acute pain. It is one thing for me to help people by applying external forces through massage, it is another to help empower them to help themselves lead a pain-free life 24/7. I suggest starting with massage to loosen and relax the body. This is a great way to help maintain a healthy, relaxed and pain-free body and a calm and peaceful disposition. Once the body is open to more learning and correction, I recommend learning The Gokhale Method® to lengthen strengthen and align the body enabling a pain-free life everyday! It doesn't involve a lot of exercises or gadgets. It incorporates improved movements that you use while sitting, standing, sleeping, bending and walking. I encourage you to look into it further on www.gokhalemethod.com or contact me with any questions. These two modalities work wonderfully together. One is instant, which is very needed to help us feel ourselves again and relax. Sometimes this is just what is required to get us feeling better quickly and more open to new ideas about how we move. The other is learning how are bodies are meant to move and incorporating this information into our daily lives for the rest of our lives. The Gokhale Method teaches us how to create pain-free movements everyday that become our new habits.
