Anetka “Moana” Pulelehua
Aloha, my name is Anetka “Moana” Pulelehua.
I am humbled to share the healing art of Lomilomi.
As an Acupuncturist Honolulu, I believe body and spirit bring true healing.
Beloved Kumū Aunt Margaret Machado said Lomilomi is “loving touch”.
The long, flowing, wave-like movements of Lomilomi come naturally to me.
During a Lomilomi session, my whole body glides in a unique flow.
It draws strength from grounded feet and legs, using hands, forearms, and elbows.
Lomilomi is deep communication, and you and I will partner in your healing journey.
In 2015, I created Pono Lomi, LLC, to share Lomilomi with you.
Pono Lomi is my heartfelt ma-halo nui to Hawaiʻi’s hardworking Kamaʻāina.
