02. How Lomilomi Works as a Healing System

Lomilomi is a complete healing system. It was designed not as a single technique but as a framework for integrated health.

The Spirit First Approach

Every session begins with Protocol, Prayer and Iintention, opening the Spirit and creating the conditions for true healing. This ensures that the work done on the body and mind flows from a clear, aligned Source.

Ancestors’ Understanding of the Body

Hawaiian Ancestors had an incredible understanding of anatomy and energy, using strokes, methods and techniques that helped each body system support the others. This knowledge allowed Lomilomi to restore physical vitality, mental clarity, and emotional balance simultaneously.

Strength, Endurance, and Daily Life

Lomilomi also supported strength and resilience. Whether preparing for hula, labour, war or other daily challenges, this practice kept people strong, flexible, and integrated — physically, mentally, and spiritually.
