When we experience stress or trauma, the body often contracts and holds tension — the shoulders tighten, the breath shortens, and the sympathetic nervous system stays activated. Lomi Lomi invites the opposite:
• Slow, rhythmic touch soothes the vagus nerve and activates the parasympathetic state — the body’s rest, repair, and digestion mode.
• Continuous movement mimics the ebb and flow of the ocean, reminding the body of natural rhythm and cyclical balance.
• Aloha-centered intention — the loving, compassionate presence of the practitioner — creates an emotional safety that allows deeper release.
As the body relaxes under this wave-like flow, breath deepens, circulation improves, and old emotional patterns stored in the muscles or fascia can finally let go. It’s common to feel not only physically lighter after a session, but emotionally clearer — as if something unseen has been rinsed away.

The Real Cost of Late Cancellations & No-Shows on Small Businesses
Running a small business takes more than just passion — it takes time, money, energy, and heart. Every appointment on our calendar is more than just a time slot. It’s a commitment. It’s a space we’ve prepared for — sometimes days in advance — with materials, labor, and personal attention. When a client cancels at the last minute or doesn’t show up, it doesn’t just leave a gap in our schedule. It leaves a mark on everything we’re working so hard to build.
For each appointment, we:
* Plan our staffing and schedule accordingly
* Prepare materials or supplies (often non-refundable)
* Turn away other potential clients for that same time slot
* Invest emotional and physical energy to provide our best service
When that appointment disappears without notice, all of those efforts — and the income tied to them — disappear too.
This isn’t just about lost money. It’s about lost opportunity.
In a small business, every dollar matters. That missed appointment could have gone to another client who truly needed it. That lost hour could have been income that helps cover essentials, reinvest in our work, or move us one step closer to the future we’re working tirelessly for.
Personally, I’m not just working to keep the business afloat — I’m working to build a stable life. I’m working toward being able to afford a home, and to one day create a safe, healthy environment for my future children to grow up in. Every late cancellation or no-show takes away from that goal. It’s not just about today’s income — it’s about tomorrow’s opportunities.
Small businesses are deeply woven into the fabric of our local economy. We’re not corporations with endless resources. We are individuals, showing up every day with everything we’ve got — trying to make a living, contribute to our communities, and offer something of value.
We fully understand that life can be unpredictable. Emergencies happen — and when they do, we’ll always do our best to be understanding. But whenever possible, a little notice makes a big difference. A 24-hour heads-up can mean the difference between a lost opportunity and a rebooked appointment.
Thank you for respecting our time and supporting local. Your consideration helps us keep going — and keep growing.
