Your feet carry you through every step of your life.

So what happens when every step hurts?

Plantar fasciitis affects millions of people, causing sharp heel pain that can make those first few steps in the morning feel almost impossible. But in Hawaiian Lomi Lomi, we don't just focus on the painful ligament—we look at the whole body and the deeper story it may be telling.

In Hawaiian healing, the feet are our foundation. They represent our path, our direction, and how confidently we move through life.

We ask:
✨ What am I resisting moving toward?
✨ Where am I feeling unsupported?
✨ Am I standing fully in my own power?

Using warm iliʻili stones, flowing Lomi Lomi techniques, gentle stretching, and mindful movement, we help soften the fascia, improve circulation, and encourage the body to heal naturally. It's a beautiful reminder that healing begins from the ground up.

In this video, I'll share some of the Lomi Lomi techniques we teach in our Maui trainings to help relieve plantar fasciitis while reconnecting with the wisdom held in the feet.

🌺 Have you ever experienced plantar fasciitis or supported a client who struggles with persistent foot pain?

Lomi concepts to replace traditional massage strokes

I stopped using petrissage and effleurage years ago. Here's what I replaced them with — and why my clients never want to go back.

There are two foundational movements at the heart of lomi lomi massage that I believe every bodyworker needs to know — whether you practice Hawaiian bodywork or not.

Traditional effleurage glides over the tissue. Traditional petrissage kneads into it. Both are pushing the body toward an outcome.

Lomi lomi does something else entirely.

These two movements work with the body's own systems — the lymphatic flow, the circulatory rhythm, the nervous system's need for safety before it will surrender. They increase circulation quickly and effectively, not by force, but by invitation. The body doesn't brace. It opens.

And that's the difference you feel on the table.

When a client's body is no longer guarding against the work — when it stops deciding whether to trust you and simply lets go — the results go deeper than pressure ever could.

These movements are fluid. They are rhythmic. They follow the natural lines of the body the way water follows the land.

And once you learn them, you'll understand why lomi lomi therapists can achieve in twenty minutes what others spend an hour working toward.

This is the foundation. This is where we begin.

Healing begins the moment we remember we were never meant to do life alone.

In Hawaiian tradition, wellness isn't simply the absence of illness. It is lōkahi—living in harmony with ourselves, with others, with nature, and with Spirit.

Lomi Lomi is more than bodywork. It is a practice of Aloha. A reminder that every loving touch, every prayer, every breath has the power to soften what has become hardened and reconnect us with who we truly are.

No matter where you've come from or what you've lived through, Aloha is your birthright.

When we learn to give and receive love freely, old patterns begin to dissolve. Hearts open. Relationships heal. And balance naturally returns.

True healing isn't something we find.
It's something we remember.

Tennis elbow isn't just a sports injury.

It's one of the most common conditions we see in people who work with their hands—massage therapists, bodyworkers, tradespeople, office workers, and anyone repeating the same movements day after day.

But one of the biggest mistakes people make is treating only where it hurts.

In Lomi Lomi, we first release the surrounding muscles before working on the painful area, helping to improve circulation without aggravating the sensitive radial nerve. Just as importantly, we look beyond the physical symptoms.

In Hawaiian healing, the forearms and elbows are connected to the idea of **holding on versus letting go**.

Sometimes the body is carrying more than muscle tension.

Sometimes it's carrying grief, fear, or relationships we've struggled to release.

In this video, I'll share three Lomi Lomi techniques we use to help relieve tennis elbow, along with the deeper Hawaiian perspective that reminds us healing happens on the physical, emotional, and spiritual levels.

🌺 Have you ever experienced tennis elbow or worked with clients who struggle with it?

The ancient ones knew you were coming.

Children of the Rainbow - carrying every bloodline, every story, every shade of humanity.

Every season, I watch this prophecy unfold at Ho'omana.

Students arrive from Germany, Japan, Brazil, Canada, the mainland... strangers who become 'ohana within days. They come seeking something - healing, purpose, power, peace - often not even knowing exactly what.

But the land knows. The ancestors know.

The Kupuna said that Hawaiians carry all bloodlines so that by connecting and through our sharing we could help people remember

Ho'omana means "to empower, to raise spiritual energy or mana." And that's exactly what happens here.

This is where you restore your power. Where you expand. Where you heal. Where you find reflections of your own light in the eyes of others who've also answered the call.

Go deep. Find your peace. Discover your purpose. Then elevate.

Then take the torchlight of Aloha and light up the world.

The prophecy is unfolding through you. 🔥🌺

This is the work. This is why we're all here.

Welcome home, Children of the Rainbow. 🌈

Sometimes the pain we carry isn't only our own.

In Hawaiian healing, the body is more than muscles and bones—it is a living archive of memory, emotion, and ancestry. A place where untold stories can quietly wait for the right moment to be seen.

Lomi Lomi teaches us that healing isn't about fixing what is broken. It's about creating a safe, sacred space where old burdens can finally be acknowledged, honoured, and released.

Like the Hawaiian teaching of the Bowl of Light, every fear, grief, resentment, and inherited wound can become a stone we carry. But when we choose to let those stones fall away, our true nature is revealed once again.

Healing doesn't erase the past.
It transforms our relationship with it.

And in that moment, the light that has always been within us begins to shine again.

Headaches aren't always caused by what's happening in your head.

Sometimes, they begin at the base of your skull.

In Lomi Lomi, we see the neck and crown as more than muscles and joints—they're a sacred gateway connecting the body to spirit. When this area becomes tight, it can affect not only movement and circulation but also how we see the world.

In Hawaiian healing, we ask:
✨ Am I seeing the bigger picture?
✨ Where have I become rigid?
✨ What perspective am I holding onto that no longer serves me?

Using gentle Lomi Lomi techniques, simple self-massage, and an eye-guided stretch, we can release tension in the suboccipital muscles, improve neck mobility, and encourage the flow of energy throughout the body. It's a beautiful reminder that healing isn't just about relieving pain—it's about creating space for new possibilities.

In this video, I'll guide you through one of the techniques we teach in our Maui trainings to help relieve headaches while reconnecting to the deeper wisdom of the body.

E mālama i nā kino a pau — Care for all of your bodies.

In Hawaiian healing, we understand that we are not just a physical body. We are kino — the physical — , ka po’o the mind )but also naʻau, our gut wisdom and emotional heart, and uhane. These are not separate. They are one.

Aunty Mahi shared that the reason for illness or disharmony in our lives is:Hewa i ka uhane (spirit) Hewa i ka po'o (mind) Hewa i kou kino

Solution- Kupono na lokahi (stand in the peace of sacred unity.

In this teaching you'll learn: ✦ Why we seek physical care but avoid emotional, mental, and spiritual support ✦ The Hawaiian understanding of our four bodies — kino, naʻau, noʻonoʻo, and uhane ✦ What I witnessed at the Maui fire relief tents that changed how I understand healing forever ✦ Why lomi lomi reached people when nothing else could

After the Maui fires, I witnessed this firsthand. The mental health tent was nearly empty — the pain was too raw, too wordless to walk through those doors. But the lomi lomi tent was full. Hands on bodies. Breath returning. Tears releasing. Deep transformation happening without a single word.

Touch reached what words could not. Not because the emotional and mental weren't there — but because the body holds everything, and sometimes healing must begin exactly where the pain lives.

Lomi lomi has always been present for this. It works with the physical body, yes — but it was always, at the same time, moving through the emotional, the mental, the spiritual. All four bodies, held in the same hands, honored in the same breath.

There is no shame in needing care for every part of you.

All of your bodies deserve to be seen. All of your bodies deserve to heal.

Sacrotuberous Ligament

There is a ligament sitting at the base of your pelvis that controls how your sacrum moves with every single step you take. When it's tight — your whole body pays the price. What if your sciatica isn't sciatica at all? What if it starts here — with one overlooked ligament most therapists never touch.

The sacrotuberous ligament.

You won't hear about it in most massage trainings. It doesn't get the attention of the piriformis or the psoas. But in lomi lomi, we consider it a key link — because without it moving freely, almost nothing else in the lower body can either.

Here is what it does.

With every step you take, your sacrum needs to flex and rotate — a subtle but essential movement that keeps your entire pelvis alive and responsive. The sacrotuberous ligament is what allows that to happen. It connects the sacrum to the sit bone, and when it is supple and mobile, the sacroiliac joint — where the sacrum meets the ilium — can do its job.

This is where lomi lomi bodywork does something remarkable.

By addressing the sacrotuberous ligament directly — with the kind of informed, flowing, rhythmic technique that lomi is known for — we restore mobility to the sacrum, release the SI joint, and allow the entire chain of structures to unwind from the ground up.

Not by forcing. Not by digging. But by understanding the architecture of the body and working with it.

If you are a therapist treating clients with chronic low back pain, hip tightness, or symptoms that mimic sciatica — this is work you need in your hands.

And if you are someone living with that kind of pain — there is a good chance nobody has looked here yet.

🌺 Save this post — this is one of the most important structures you are not working on yet. Tag a therapist or someone who has been told they have sciatica but nothing seems to help. Drop the word
