At Hand Magic Healing™ Anna Parkinson combines her long experience of massage with her ability as a healer and her understanding of the Hawaiian tradition to give you an uncommonly high quality massage experience.

 What is Hawaiian massage?

Hawaiian massage or lomilomi has always been an essential part of the healing tradition of those islands.

 It's a powerful body treatment that eases away aches and pain, lifting energy and restoring wellbeing in the days and weeks after treatment.

It's a gentle technique, with benefits for any age. Its effects are profound and last much longer than some other forms of massage, because the therapist engages with the participant's nervous system at a very deep level.

The therapist works along the length of the body, using forearms and body weight in a hypnotic rhythm which effectively lulls participants into deep relaxation. This unique experience leaves you feeling totally refreshed as your body unconsciously releases physical and emotional tensions. 

The Hawaiian massage offered at Hand Magic Healing™ is unique in Kent.

The therapy room

At the start of a treatment you will enter a warm therapy room, and, after a brief discussion with Anna of your history and the results you would like from your treatment, you relax  on the deep comfort of the massage table.

Beneficial oils

Walm pure almond oil is used during lomilomi treatment while  hair and make-up is carefully protected. Almond oil penetrates the skin with a deeply softening beneficial effect, unlike many massage oils which are mineral-based and leave a greasy film on the surface of the skin, clogging up the pores.

Anna uses her knowledge of herbs to add a variety of essential oils that will be

appropriate for your treatment, should you request it. 

 

Is lomilomi right for you?

Lomilomi massage brings benefit to all regardless of age, sex or physical fitness.

As a gentle treatment it is perfect for

  • Older people who may have chronic stiffness that will yield only gradually to massage treatment.
  • People suffering from fatigue or exhaustion, or conditions arising from stress such as anxiety, sleep and digestive disorders, high blood pressure, or breathing and hormone irregularities.
  • Children, whose anxiety emerges as stomach complaints or anger. Children respond very quickly to the enjoyable rhythmic movements of lomilomi.
  • Acute pain arising from muscle tension such as frozen shoulder, whiplash, painful knees or lower back pain. Lomilomi will gently ease your muscles back into balance.

 A note for the overenthusiastic…

Lomilomi is a powerful and spiritual form of massage. However, although it comes form the exotic islands of Hawaii please note that it is not a sexual service. 

 

I look forward to seeing you at Hand Magic Healing™
