Hana Hou Massage LLC focuses on listening to the client and personalizing their massage sessions by using a variety of techniques and modalities like Lomi Lomi, deep tissue and Swedish massage.

Lomi Lomi

Lomi Lomi is an ancient Hawaiian massage modality which focuses on flow and connection with the body. Forearms and elbows are mainly used to massage more surface area of the body at once. The strokes are typically slow and long. Lomi Lomi also uses deep tissue work and Swedish massage techniques which make Lomi Lomi a well-rounded, connected massage modality.

Deep Tissue

Deep Tissue massage is ideal for people that experience chronic muscle tightness. Deep Tissue helps work through layers of the muscle to relieve adhesions, knots and hypertonic muscles. The pressure used gradually gets deeper and deeper as the muscles start to relax.

Swedish

A more common type of massage, Swedish is used to get the body to relax by applying a light to medium based pressure and moving the longer muscle strokes toward the heart. The palms of the hands are mainly used throughout this modality and some key techniques include kneading, stretching, rocking and rhythmic tapping.
