Lomi Lomi massage is based on ancient Hawaiian massage techniques. It differs from other types of massage in that the entire body is massaged in long strokes, rather than concentrating on one individual area at a time. Additionally, Lomi Lomi massage therapists will often use not only their hands, but also forearms, elbows or even knees and feet. There are many benefits associated with Lomi Lomi massage. Like most massage techniques, Lomi Lomi is an excellent way to relax your body and remove existing tension. However, scientific research has shown that our muscles actually harbor the accumulation of old stresses, which contribute to fatigue and other maladies. Lomi Lomi massage specifically targets such stress points, rejuvenating the muscles and facilitating healing. And, of course, the immediate result will be deep relaxation. The type of strokes used in Lomi Lomi massage can drastically improve the efficiency of your blood flow. This, in turn, allows for all of your muscles and tissues to receive more highly oxygenated blood that facilitates healing and the release of toxins from your body. Such improvement in your muscles can often lead to more flexibility and better posture, while the increased circulation will also result in noticeable improvement to your skin. Lomi Lomi massage is believed to be particularly beneficial for digestion, which often leads to better appetite and more effective waste removal. Together with improved circulation and muscle health, the body becomes stronger overall. With the deep relaxation and relief of stress, Lomi Lomi often results in greater energy and increase in motivation, which can lead to a more positive outlook. The overall effect is thought to be one of improved physical and mental well-being. Lomi Lomi massage has long been the most popular form of massage in the Hawaiian Islands, and it is now finding its popularity worldwide.
