Regina Lumsden

Fascia Journey, Swedish Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, Couples, Micronesian Stepping Massage

Regina is motivated by her clients’ experiences of moving out and away from physical and emotional pain as she applies the work with them. She is thrilled to watch her clients becoming more and more empowered, centered, grounded and finding their inner peace as she works with them. 

A licensed massage therapist, Regina graduated from the Hawaii College of Health Science, Honolulu, after moving to Hawaii from the UK in 1997. She practiced massage part time for several years before working full time as a Waldorf teacher specialized in the Waldorf movement curriculum.  In 2005 Regina became a client of Noa Batlin who practices healing arts based on the principle that the body carries physical and emotional memories, and if we don’t fully process them, they can be painful and hinder us from having a full-body, soul and spirit experience of our lives. Since these memories are held in the fascia, deep tissue work and myofascial release can be helpful in letting go and moving forwards towards freedom.

Sarah Hodges

Lomilomi (Style of Kumu Alva), Couples Massage

Sarah herself began massaging her family at about age five, whenever they were sick or not feeling well in any other way. The healing power of touch fascinated her, and she had a natural will to share it with her loved ones. After extensive traveling, Sarah returns to Honolulu and Still & Moving Center ready to share her exquisite lomilomi massage practice, which she learned from the legendary kumu (master teacher) of lomilomi, Uncle Alva.

As a grateful student of Uncle Alva’s Hawaiian lineage and her family’s Persian lineage, Sarah shares her gift of loving, healing touch with her clients, and we are proud and delighted to welcome her as one of our excellent bodywork therapists at Still & Moving Center.

This traditional Hawaiian massage uses rhythmic movements to promote deep healing with the muscles. There are many styles of lomilomi but most affirm that prayer and loving touch are essential components.
