Lomi Lomi is a healing massage from Hawaii. It was handed down by elders ("kupuna") and shamanistic healers within each community. Here is an interesting read...

Traditionally in ancient Hawaii lomilomi was practiced in four contexts:

As a healing practice of native healers -- kahuna lāʻau lapaʻau (healers) and kahuna hāhā (diagnosticians)
As a luxury and an aid to digestion, especially by the ruling chiefs (aliʻi)
As restorative massage within the family
By ʻōlohe lua (masters of the Hawaiian martial arts)
