THE TECHNIQUES

Lomi Lomi, Swedish, Deep Tissue and Sports Massage

Choose from an ancient Hawaiian Lomi Lomi — a long, flowing, soothing technique — or classic Swedish relaxation. For chronic tension or injury‑related issues there is Deep Tissue, and athletes can opt for Sports Massage to improve performance, prevent injury and aid recovery.

THE PACKAGES

Kona Classic and the Most Popular Kona Bliss

Two signature packages expand the single session: Kona Classic (90 minutes) adds hot stones, reflexology and a hand‑and‑foot scrub; Kona Bliss is the most popular extended option and includes hot stones, reflexology, hand‑and‑foot scrub plus face and head treatments in a session over two hours.

PRACTICAL NOTE

Tipping and Cancellation Policy

Staff rely on tips as part of their income and most guests typically leave between 17%–25% gratuity; there is also a 48‑hour cancellation policy — no‑shows or cancellations within 48 hours forfeit refund rights.

What the Session Feels Like

A single massage at Ka Lima Hana Kukui unfolds as a choice‑driven session: you select the style and length, the therapist applies modality‑specific pressure and techniques — from long, flowing Lomi Lomi strokes to targeted, deeper work — and, where chosen, package add‑ons such as hot stones, reflexology or face treatments extend the session into a ritual of slow unwinding.
