Lomi Lomi training

A SMALL INTRODUCTION

Hawaian bodywork reflects the ancient spiritual connection that the authentic Polynesian population has practiced since the beginning of time with their ancestors , the land and the breath of life or Aloha.

The famous Aunty Margaret Machado, one of the great elders of Lomi Lomi said our work is about “the loving touch, a connection with the heart, hands and soul with the source of life”.

I have been a bodyworker for a long time and from the very first moment Hawaiian bodywork came into my life it has empowered me, given my life more depth and meaning. I am convinced it will enhance your life, as well as those around you.

WHO THE TRAINING IS FOR

This training is open to anyone who is interested in both the healing arts and the transformative power of the Hawaiian tradition. Experienced professionals as well as newcomers to the healing arts are welcome.
