However, as powerful as lomi lomi massage is, there are specific
things that we can do before and after the lomi lomi treatment
to ensure that we get the absolute most out of the experience.
Here are my top 5 tips for getting the most out of your lomi
lomi treatment.
1) Make your lomi lomi treatment your number 1 priority.
On the day of your lomi lomi booking, make sure that you
organize yourself so that the most important thing in your day
is your lomi lomi treatment. This means making sure that you
clear your schedule so that you are free 1 hour either side of
your lomi lomi treatment.
This will give you enough time to slow down and relax before
your treatment, it will ensure you arrive on time without
stress, and at the end of your lomi lomi, it will give you time
to more slowly integrate back into your world, without having to
rush back in.
2) Make sure you are clean and comfortable before your lomi
lomi.
When we get onto a massage table, it's only natural that we can
become a little self-conscious about our bodies.
In order to be able to relax, it's a good idea to shower before
having a treatment. This will not only make sure that you are
clean, smell nice and feel comfortable on the table, but will

your system.
It is also a good idea for men to have a shave a couple of hours
before-hand, so that the face massage is enjoyable (i.e. not
rough) and for women, you may feel more comfortable if you have
performed your hair removal routine a day or two before your
lomi lomi treatment.
3) Make sure you are well hydrated before your lomi lomi.
As lomi lomi can be a fairly intensive treatment in terms of
detoxifying the body, you will need to make sure that you are
well hydrated before your treatment.
Now this doesn't mean that you need to flood your body with
water, but rather it means keeping a water bottle with you all
day, and taking regular mouthfuls to keep your water levels
topped up.
However, you shouldn't drink anything at least 3o minutes prior
to your lomi lomi treatment, otherwise you may find yourself
needing to go to the bathroom in the middle of your lomi lomi.
In regards to food, it's good idea to avoid eating heavy food,
such as meats, pastas and dairy at least an hour befor your lomi
lomi treatment, this will help your system relax and ensure that
your body's energies are free for healing and not spent in
digesting food.
4) Create an intention for your lomi lomi treatment.
As lomi lomi works on treating the whole person, and we each
create our own reality with our thoughts, creating an intention
for how you would like the lomi lomi to help you is a powerful
way to actually 'make it happen'. In fact, it turns the lomi
lomi into a powerful 'prayer' for calling what you want into
your life, whatever that may be.
"Ask, believe and you will receive!"
5) During your lomi lomi, breathe into your tension.
A skilled and intuitive lomi lomi practitioner will naturally be
drawn to your areas of tension and although they will never
'force' their way into these areas, you may feel your
body/muscles wanting to resist, which can result in some
pain/discomfort.
The way to alleviate this is simply to breathe. When your lomi
lomi practitioner finds an area that is particularly
tense/painful, you should take a deep breath, and visually your
breath going into that area.
Then, as you exhale you will feel the tension/pain dissolve as
that area relaxes.
The key is to work with your practitioner and let them 'into'
your body as they peel back the layers of tension, like removing
the layers of an onion.
The philosophy of lomi lomi is...Where there is 'relaxation'
there can be no illness!
After your lomi lomi, it's really nice to have a cleansing warm
shower to wash away any lingering 'energy'.
It's also a good idea to go and sit somewhere peaceful,
preferably in nature and allow yourself some time to 'come back
to earth' and integrate the lomi lomi experience. This is
especially so before getting behind the wheel and driving
anywhere.
It's also a 'must' to drink plenty of water afterwards as the
effects of the lomi lomi in detoxifying/healing your body will
continue to work well after the treatment.
So there you have it. I hope these tips help you get the most
out of your lomi lomi treatments as they have for myself and my
clients.
Aloha!
