Receive Lomi
What is Lomi Lomi?
In Hawaiian language 'lomilomi' simply means 'massage'.
It is a tradition of deepening the connection between family, friends and leaders, and was passed down from one generation to the next. These initiations often took up to 5~6 hours or an entire day, often with 4 or 5 people massaging the receiver at the same time.
Lomi for the soul and mind
The aim was to prepare the individual's soul for the next phase in their life, and to help align them with a clear vision of purpose and grounding them in unconditional love. Traditionally, ceremonial Lomi Lomi sessions were carried out in sacred places or in temples, and it was the elders, the healers and the leaders who provided them.
Ceremonial Lomi Lomi
Traditionally, ceremonial Lomi Lomi sessions were carried out in sacred places or in temples, and it was the elders, the healers and the leaders who provided them.
With our exquisite Ceremonial Massages we revive this ancient tradition.
4-handed Ceremonial Massage
To be able to experience something unique, we recommend that clients treat themselves to at least a 2-hrs long Ceremonial Lomi Lomi massage first. This full body treatment establishes a deep connection of body, mind and soul, and allows the receiver to enter into a fully relaxed state.
The long, slow strokes, the flow of conscious touch downregulate the nervous system and restores our sense of wholeness.
Besides the tissues becoming easier available for deeper work like that, transformational experiences, spontaneous healings and balancing of energies can also take place.
6-handed Ceremonial Massage
The 6-handed Ceremonial Lomi Lomi Massage sessions take the multiple-handed sessions to a whole new level. In general, 4-handed sessions are not unknown in the wellness industry, though most of the time the involvement of several therapists providing the treatment does not imply more than the enhancement of efficiency.
The involvement of a third therapist transcends the classic dualistic framework of male-female, yin-yang, or movements mirroring each other on the two sides of the body.
The continuous, sometimes synchronized, sometimes arhythmic motion of 6 hands invites the whole body-mind system to let go, surrender and open up for a nourishing, embodied transpersonal experience.
Some aspects of these journeys are well-defined and structured to create trust and safety for all of us: as for our clients, also for ourselves.
Some aspects of these journeys cannot be planned and invite all of us into the realm of the unknown.
8-handed Ceremonial Massage
In our experience, the 8-handed Lomi Lomi Ceremonial Massage sessions provide the ideal number of therapists working with someone.
The presence of 4 therapists creates a beautiful balance and leaves a comfortable space for prolonged collaboration.
Processing the continuous, sometimes synchronized, sometimes arhythmic motion of 8 hands is too much information for the mind, so often it just gives in. After a playful-controlling stage of the session – trying to find out who is who, who is doing what… – clients experience sinking into a deep sense of safety, letting go and surrendering.
In this space, it is possible to reconnect to your inner resources and peacefulness, engage with the healing of wounds and traumas or simply just allow tears of gratitude and joy to emerge.

What to expect from a multi-handed journey
Sessions range from 4–8 hours, sometimes unfolding over several days, with teams of 4–8 hands. Parts of the structure are intentional to create safety; other parts invite you into the unknown. Longer sessions allow the body to drop into an unprecedented stillness, making deep release possible without force or pain.
Five-hour-plus sessions often become rites of passage and end with shared food and reflection — echoing the communal practices from which this work originates.
In traditional Hawaiian culture, new chiefs underwent up to 15 days of near-continuous initiation guided by elders. Our aim is to honour the essence of that tradition in a modern, accessible, and grounded form — supporting personal growth, leadership, and conscious human evolution… and maybe one day reviving the 15-day long ritual itself as well.
A truly holistic experience, a soul once touched by Lomi never returns to its original state.
FAQ
What is a multi-handed Lomi Lomi massage?
Multi-handed Lomi Lomi involves 4, 6, or 8 hands working simultaneously to provide a deeply immersive and transformational experience. Beyond the physical benefits, the synchronized and sometimes arhythmic movements create a space for emotional release, energy balancing, and spiritual connection. These sessions often go beyond what a traditional massage can offer, inviting participants to enter a profound state of presence and awareness.
What makes multi-handed Lomi Lomi different from traditional massages?
Unlike typical massages, multi-handed sessions use multiple practitioners simultaneously. The combined flow of 4–8 hands engages the whole body-mind system in a way that is deeply relaxing, energetically balancing, and often transformative. Many clients experience shifts similar to spiritual breakthroughs, profound emotional release, and heightened awareness – sometimes compared to psychedelic or meditative states – without any substances.
For most people, to put it simply: it is an experience of unprecedented rest and feeling safe in their bodies… coming home.
How long are multi-handed sessions?
Sessions can range from one hour to a full day, depending on the type and depth of experience you wish to have. Some ceremonial sessions can even extend over multiple days for rites of passage or deep personal transformation.
Is multi-handed Lomi safe during pregnancy?
Yes. The 4-handed Pregnancy Lomi is specifically designed for safety, comfort, and care for both mother and baby. The multiple hands allow gentle attention and efficiency within the time a pregnant client can comfortably spend on the table.
What should I expect during a session?
You will be comfortably positioned on the table while practitioners use flowing, continuous movements over your body. Some movements may be synchronized; others may feel arhythmic or playful. The experience is designed to invite you to let go, surrender, and fully inhabit the present moment and your body. Many clients report deep relaxation, energetic balancing and emotional release.
Do I need to prepare for a multi-handed session?
Arrive a few minutes early, wear comfortable clothes, and bring an open mind and heart. Multi-handed sessions are immersive experiences, so it helps to come with no expectations other than to be present and receptive.
By the time you come for a multi-handed session we most probably had some conversations on the phone or in person and would have sent you a message with all the details you need to know to prepare yourself for the event.
How do I book a multi-handed session?
