Lomi Lomi Hawaiian Healing Massage
A deeply flowing Hawaiian massage that releases tension, restores balance, and reconnects you with the natural rhythm of your body.
Often affectionately referred to as “the Queen of Massages,” Lomi Lomi is a traditional Hawaiian bodywork practice known for its long, continuous flowing strokes that move across the body like gentle ocean waves.
What to expect
Your session begins with a brief conversation to understand how you are feeling and what you would like support with.
Warm oil is applied to the body and the massage is performed using long, continuous flowing strokes with the hands and forearms. These movements travel rhythmically across the body, helping to soften tension and create a deeply relaxing experience.
Your comfort is central throughout the session. A sarong is used, with draping adapted to allow the flowing strokes of Lomi Lomi while always maintaining your privacy, dignity and comfort.
Many people experience a deep sense of relaxation during the treatment as the body begins to unwind. It is common to leave feeling lighter, calmer, and more at ease within yourself.
What is Lomi Lomi Hawaiian Healing Massage?
Lomi Lomi is a traditional form of Hawaiian bodywork that reflects the islands’ deep connection with rhythm, nature and healing touch.
The word Lomi in Hawaiian means to knead, rub or soothe, and repeating the word emphasises the flowing, continuous nature of the massage. The practice developed within Hawaiian healing traditions and was historically passed down through families and communities.
In modern practice, Lomi Lomi treatments honour these principles through flowing movement, presence and a quiet sense of reverence for the work.
Modern treatments continue to focus on the person as a whole — body, mind and emotional wellbeing — rather than simply addressing isolated areas of tension.

“I recently enjoyed a Lomi Lomi massage a really pleasant slow comfortable and peaceful massage. This Hawaiian massage is very calming slow and relaxing. it is like a long slow oily hug is the best way I can think to describe it. It is given by a combination of strokes from hands and arms I think everyone should try it as they would benefit from its therapeutic connection.”

"Comforting and Revitalising
It is a pleasure to receive a Lomi Lomi treatment from John. It is a truly amazing experience. John is very professional and creates a calm and inviting atmosphere from the very beginning right through to the end. His treatment is not only comforting and revitalizing, both physically and energetically, but also authentic to each individual. I always receive exactly what my body needs, and find myself feeling nourished after each session. John's wisdom and insight towards Lomi Lomi and healing is deep. The empowerment I receive through the treatment is inspirational. Highly recommended."

"A Rare Find
I have had the pleasure of experiencing a couple of amazing treatments with John over the years. Both the Lomi Lomi massage and Reiki have been the ultimate relaxation experience where I transcend into a new dimension. A deep, floating and melting experience I can get from no other.
What makes John's treatments extra special is the passion, intention, empathy and care John has and how intuitively connected John is in making the outcome so special.
I am a client for life - thank you John for an amazing experience every time. You're a rare find 🙏💫✨❤️ "

"John, I want to thank you for the relaxation and pleasure I experienced during your massage. It was amazing! It's not just a massage, it's a wonderful ritual!!! I'm very physical, but I'm also a visual person. And everything matters to me: the scent, the sound, the moderate lighting, the strength and intensity of the pressure, and the accompanying materials. During your massage, everything was perfectly chosen and harmonious. This creates not only a cozy atmosphere but also promotes aesthetic and physical pleasure. As for the after-effects of the procedure, my body not only relaxed but also rebooted, as evidenced by the increased lymph flow and my overall well-being! Thank you! I will gladly recommend you to my friends! 🤗❤️"
