My massage practice is founded on the Sacred principles of Hawaiian Lomi Lomi. This bodywork is based on an ancient, shamanic rite of passage that connects the body and mind with clarity and restorative balance. This practice uses mindfulness and skillful, embodied touch to communicate with the entire body. Through massage, we are offered direct access to the greater “body” of healing that connects us all. Time, attention and presence are the key elements at the very heart of this practice.
My attention focuses on your total well Being. Connecting in this way creates a safe and sacred setting for our work together. There is an intuitive, rhythmic pattern as I work that allows the body to drop its holdings and release into a deep sense of rest, relaxation and balance.
I move gently yet deeply into muscles finding congestion and specific muscles holding tension through a variety of techniques:
Deep muscle release when a specific area of the body is locked up and congested; using steady pressure, supported movement and stretching.
Quiet, slow and more subtle form of touch that communicates a calming and connecting effect on the body.
Gentle rocking or shaking to integrate and encourage the body to release patterns of holding, increasing circulation and flow.
Breath and subtle sounds to communicate to the body, encouraging you to use your own breath to deepen your experience of transformation.
My techniques are intuitive – responding to your specific body’s needs. Every session I offer is as unique as you are. I allow time; Time for you to have your own unique experience and discover, acknowledge and embrace every aspect of yourself. Time to slow down, listen to your inner wisdom and integrate your experience.
