LOMI LOMI IN MOTION — THE FULL BODY MASSAGE EXPERIENCE IN BERLIN
Nourishing touch for body and soul
What is "Lomi Lomi in motion"?
"Lomi Lomi in Motion" is a full body massage that combines the traditional Hawaiian Lomi Lomi healing technique with elements of contact improvisation dance, body-oriented therapy, and various other massage styles.
I give sessions on a massage table, using plenty of oil. It feels different from session to session, from client to client. We create the experience together: I follow and support with everything what is present.
Please watch the video on YouTube or on Vimeo to see how Lomi in motion might look like:
Lomi Lomi in motion is like an ocean. Always the same, but never alike.
Lomi in motion might feel like a dance on the massage table: sometimes slow and tender, sometimes surprising and fun, sometimes still and silent. Some clients compare the massage experience to feeling like they were flying in the clouds, or swimming in the ocean, or being in their mother's womb. It is special every time.
| Aloha! My name is Natasha Kuzmina I am massage therapist, workshop facilitator and pleasure activist deeply learning the topics of consent and touch. Before I fell in love with Lomi Lomi and started the training 2 years ago, I've been doing other types of massage for 5 years, combining it with a work in creative agencies. I was trained in eastern Yumeiho, classical Swedish, lymphatic drainage, honey, GuaSha massages. Now I bring together the knowledge from diverse techniques and also different fields of life to give Lomi in motion. I’m dancing contact improvisation, exploring the topics of consent and conscious kink at workshops and festivals, practiсe shibari, rope massage, play fight, exploring Butoh dance and more. I've done training "Like a pro. The wheel of consent for professionals" As a queer person myself, I feel honoured to support with touch humans from LGBTQ+ community. I do my best to create a safer space and build the trustful environment, be aware of my clients needs, wishes and boundaries. I speak English, Russian, Ukrainian, a bit of Polish and very little German (not enough for the proper negotiation) |
| The open letter to the massage clients This massage is for you, I am in service. You don't have to do anything, be "comfortable" or behave in a certain way. During the session you can cry, laugh, scream, be completely silent. All emotions are welcome. You can express your thoughts and wishes, ask for things and change your mind. Please, communicate. There is no need to tolerate discomfort. If you need to go to the bathroom, or your feet are cold, if you want a stronger or softer touch, if some movements feel too intimate — I invite you to tell me as soon as you feel it. I acknowledge that it might be difficult and it is fine if you don't talk. Please, breathe. You can make sounds by yourself or with me. You can move and change your body position - out of need or curiosity. You don't have to help me, even when I move your body and you imagine it difficult: I want to assure you that I take care of myself. You can relax and enjoy. It is your responsibility to take as much as you can from this massage and communicate your boundaries and wishes, I will do my best to stay present, ask questions and give a professional massage. I wish you a beautiful journey. |

Feedback from my clients
What does a massage session look like?
The first contact
You write me a message and we agree on day and time. I send you all the details. You can ask questions and get the answers.
Getting to know each other
You come to the massage space. I will ask about your physical and emotional state, about your wishes and intentions for the massage. You may ask more questions. I will leave you alone in the room so you can change the clothes. This part will take around 15 minutes.
The touch
When you are ready, I come back to the room. We will have a small ritual: breathing and bringing awareness to the body. Then I pour oil on the massage table. When you lie on the table, I cover you with the textile. The part with touch will take around 1.5 hour.
Closing
I finish the touch more or less 15 minutes before the end, you'll have time to come back to Earth, put your clothes back on and share the experience if you want. We can have a tea or drink water together, talking or in silence.
After
If you want, you can contact me on the same day, day after or later. I appreciate any feedback.
You are welcome to dress down to your comfort level. You can be in your birthday suit, this is practical for massage movements, but is not necessary. The intimate area will be covered with a cloth in any case. You can keep the underwear on. You can stay in clothes. Lomi-Lomi can be done fully clothed, the technique will be different.
The most valuable thing is the comfort of the client, I respect and celebrate the boundaries.

Yes, I can give a private massage lesson or workshop for 2 people. Contact me for the details.
I usually use coconut oil. But client can always ask for a different oil, if they have allergies or prefer oil without smell, or just don’t feel like coconut oil today :) I need to know it beforehand, because otherwise there might not be any other oil.
Sexual arousal might happen, this is normal body reaction. Important to understand that Lomi-Lomi is not a sexual practice.
What can be useful in a such situations? Take a deep breath and consciously move the attention to the other processes and feelings which are present.
I do not work with sexual energy, genital touch is my boundary, I do not offer this kind of interaction and will stop the massage immediately if the client will act on their arousal or ask me to act on it. In this case the full price for the massage still has to be paid.

We will negotiate this. Both options are possible, depending on the comfort zone of my client. If my client wants breasts to be covered, I will massage the belly through the cloth and will do less movements that could cause the fabric to slip. If my client wants breasts to be not covered, I will massage belly directly and will do more movements. I will not touch the breasts directly, I might touch the chest and muscles around the breasts.
My main massage technique is Lomi in motion now - and this massage can be very different, depending on wishes of the client. I do not offer other massages now, but you can ask for something specific what you want.
I chose a duration of 2 hours because, in my view, that's usually enough time for most clients to build some level of trust, deeply relax, and let go.
The session may be longer, but not shorter. If it is a matter of money, contact me. I have a few spots available at a discounted price every month, no explanation needed.
