Kahuna Massage

Kahuna massage, based on the ancient lomi lomi is a whole body massage like no other. It is a gentle but deep flowing form of massage that will relax, revitalise, and revive you.

Kahuna bodywork originated in the South Pacific and was used during Rites of Passage as a transformational massage and healing system. It is also known as Hawaiian Temple Style massage and Lomi Lomi.

This beautiful form of bodywork provides a holistic approach to healing by balancing the body-mind in its physical, emotional and spiritual dimensions. These three aspects are linked in humans, and through neglect of any or all of them, we become disconnected. Kahuna massage is a starting point to reconnect and balance the three enhancing a sense of awareness of all that we are.

Kahuna bodywork is unique in a number of respects. The practitioner uses their hands, forearms and elbows and moves around the table (using flowing hula & Tai Chi style movements) working with energy while applying soft and deep tissue massage. Kahuna involves long, deep pressure strokes and movements rather than pointed, isolated pressure as in other forms of massage. Music is played and the practitioner attunes the flow of the massage to harmonise the various rhythms within a persons body-mind-soul.
