Lomi Lomi pregnancy massage experience report
A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of experiencing a Lomi Lomi pregnancy massage, and I have to say it was an absolutely transformative experience. As soon as I entered the room, I felt a calming atmosphere that immediately relaxed me. Gina’s loving and caring manner gave me a sense of security and trust.
After a welcoming phase and an explanation of the procedure, the massage began. During the massage, I lay comfortably on my side to best support my growing belly. The use of special oils and scents helped me relax even more. As Gina began performing the gentle, flowing movements over my body, I felt my muscles gradually loosen and my tension ease.
Some of the benefits I experienced after the Lomi Lomi pregnancy massage were:
- My back pain subsided. As a pregnant woman, I often struggled with back pain, but the massage helped significantly alleviate this pain. The targeted techniques along my spine brought noticeable relief.
- A feeling of lightness. Thanks to the improved circulation and the reduction of swelling, I felt much lighter and more energized after the massage.
- Emotional relief. The massage helped me release my stress and worries. I felt profound emotional relief and a positive connection with my unborn baby.
- Better sleep quality. I slept much better the nights after the massage. The peace and relaxation I experienced during the treatment had a positive effect on my sleep.
- Someone with experience at my side.
The Lomi Lomi pregnancy massage was an experience I highly recommend to all expectant mothers. It not only provided me with physical relief, but also strengthened my connection to my body and my baby. It was a wonderful way to prepare for the upcoming birth and to give myself some time out for inner peace and balance. I am so grateful for this enriching experience and will definitely repeat it before my baby arrives.
