Puana Lomilomi Cultural Immersion & Self Healing

Disclaimer: This site is following COVID-19 protocols which are updated with the Hawaii State Department of Health and may restrict certain activities.

Rather than an in-depth lomilomi training, this is a stand-alone event for you to enjoy on a single day.

Lomilomi, like all forms of healing, is an unfolding process of many steps. This approach to lomilomi focuses on settling the nervous system and integrating all parts of the body into one. Drawing on lessons of hula and lei making, students weave lomilomi massage techniques into a tailored treatment that addresses body, mind, and spirit.
