What is pregnancy / Hapai / Lomilomi like?
Pregnancy is a special period both physically and emotionally. The body is constantly changing and adapting.
Lomilomi massage can be beautifully adapted to the growing belly and the changing needs of the female body. Long, flowing movements gently release tension in areas that are especially burdened during pregnancy, such as the lower back, shoulders, hips, and pelvis. Gentle massage of the calves, ankles, and feet stimulates circulation and helps reduce the feeling of heavy legs.
The Hawaiian word “hāpai” means pregnant, to carry, to lift, and to support.
Lomilomi technique carries the nature-based worldview and wisdom of the Hawaiian people, as well as their respect for new life. The massage supports both body and soul. During the treatment, the expectant mother slows down, relaxes, and connects more deeply with herself and her baby.
I offer Hapai Lomilomi massage until the very end of pregnancy.
If needed, I use specially shaped memory-foam cushions to ensure a comfortable and safe position, so that every part of the body is fully supported.
For skin that is often drier or more sensitive during pregnancy, nourishing, pure coconut oil provides extra care.
If you feel that gentle, nurturing touch would support you during this period, feel free to contact me with confidence.
