What is Ka Huna massage?

Ka Huna massage (also known as Lomi Lomi) is an ancient Hawaiian healing art that uses long, flowing, rhythmic strokes — like ocean waves moving across the body. The therapist works in a continuous, fluid, dance-like motion using hands, forearms and elbows simultaneously. It works holistically on body, mind and spirit, releasing deep muscular tension while creating a profound sense of peace and emotional restoration.

How is Ka Huna different from a regular massage?

Ka Huna is significantly different from a standard relaxation or remedial massage. Rather than working one muscle group at a time, Ka Huna uses long, sweeping, full-body strokes that flow from head to toe in one continuous movement. It addresses the whole person — physical, emotional and spiritual — and many clients describe it as one of the most transformative experiences they have ever had on a massage table.

What should I expect during a Ka Huna session at Calming Concepts?

Your session begins with a brief consultation so your therapist understands your needs. You will then lie on the table while your therapist works in flowing, rhythmic sequences across your entire body. Warm oils are used throughout. Many clients drift into a deeply meditative state. Sessions typically leave you feeling deeply relaxed, lighter and emotionally restored. We recommend allowing quiet time after your appointment to extend the benefit.

Is Ka Huna massage suitable for everyone?

Ka Huna is suitable for most people and is particularly wonderful for those experiencing stress, emotional overwhelm, burnout or chronic tension. It is not recommended during the first trimester of pregnancy or for clients with certain medical conditions. If you have any concerns, please contact us before booking and we will happily advise.

Do I need to undress for Ka Huna massage?

Ka Huna massage is traditionally performed with minimal draping to allow the therapist's flowing strokes to move freely across the body. You will be professionally draped at all times and your comfort and privacy are our absolute priority. If you have any concerns, please discuss them with your therapist before the session begins — we will always accommodate your needs.

How does draping work during a Ka Huna massage?

Your modesty and comfort are our highest priority. We use a minimalist draping technique with soft sarongs to allow for the continuous, sweeping under-body strokes that define Ka Huna, while ensuring you remain securely covered, warm, and respected at all times.

How is Ka Huna different from remedial massage?

While remedial massage focuses on treating specific muscle tension with targeted pressure, Ka Huna is a deeply holistic experience. It uses long, flowing forearms and rhythmic, dance-like movements to release both physical and emotional blockages, treating the body, mind, and spirit as one connected entity.

What should I wear to my appointment?

We recommend arriving in comfortable, loose-fitting clothing. During the massage, you will be draped appropriately. Your body is covered in coconut oil during your treatment, and although hot towels are provided at the end, you will still feel some oil on your skin afterwards. We recommend bringing a change of clothes if you arrive wearing anything you don't want oil on.

Is it normal to feel emotional after a session?

Absolutely. Ka Huna works deeply on an energetic level, often releasing stored emotions along with physical tension. It is completely normal to feel a sense of emotional lightness, vulnerability, or even a quiet release of tears. We hold a safe, supportive space for whatever arises during and after your treatment.
