Deep enough to make a difference.
Nurturing enough to let go.
At Lomi Life in Brunswick, flowing Hawaiian lomi lomi meets remedial precision: long, oceanic strokes help your whole body unwind, with targeted, technical work woven in where needed.
A stubborn shoulder can get focused attention without a wrestling match, while the rest of you finally gets to exhale and settle into something profoundly calm. Each session responds to what matters to you. The body is not forced to change — it’s supported to.
Clinical where needed.
Sacred where it counts.
You may be here because…
Different ways in. Often more than one at once.
You don’t need to arrive with a neat explanation. Start with The Session and we’ll work out the best approach together on the day.
You’ll know what happens next
My approach is trauma-informed, with comfort, choice and clear communication built into the way we work together.
We talk before anything begins. I’ll offer how the session can flow, provide options, and check in with you before we start.
Pressure matters. I ask about your preferences beforehand, but that’s only a starting point. You’ll have a simple way to signal more or less pressure at any time, and I’ll check in too.
Draping is used throughout every massage. We’ll discuss options before you get on the table, so it isn’t something you have to manage or wonder about during the session.
We can adjust positioning, temperature, music, etc at any point. Conversation is kept to a minimum. The session itself can be paused or stopped. You don’t need a reason.
If being touched brings up some uncertainty, we can take things as slowly as you need and I can check in before each step. If you’d rather stay completely clothed, that’s an option in The Grounding session.
The consult form also lets you tell me if speaking up in the moment can sometimes be difficult. If so, I can offer simple alternatives.
New here? Give it two hours.
Two hours is a decent chunk of your day. That’s deliberate.
Most of life moves quickly. Even rest gets squeezed into the gaps. This doesn’t.
Two hours gives us room to talk properly before we begin, give problem areas real focus, work holistically with the whole body, and finish without rushing the landing.
That slower pace is part of the value. The outcome might be profound relaxation, a proper reset, a quieter head, or a little more clarity and perspective.
And there’s something else that can be hard to come by: two hours of not being needed. Nothing to organise, decide or manage. Just receiving.
One session can be complete. If there’s something useful to build on, it might mean another visit or two — or for some, a regular rhythm of care.
Being looked after doesn’t have to wait until you’re running on empty or tight as a guitar string. It can be part of how you stay well — not just for when you aren’t.
THE EXPERIENCES
You don’t need to figure it out
The Experiences begin with how you’re feeling and what you need, rather than making you choose a massage technique first.
If one fits, choose it. If several do — or your decision-making department has clocked off for the day — book The Session. We’ll talk when you arrive and work from there.
First 2hr visit · $240 with code INTRO
Two hours · $260 standard

THE CLASSIC SESSIONS
The core modalities behind the Experiences
Assessment-led, targeted work for pain, persistent tension and restricted movement. Deep where it needs to be, but not punishing – with room for the whole body to settle.
Holistic Hawaiian bodywork: nurturing full-body strokes, rhythmic flow and soothing stillness — for deep rest, replenishment and feeling more at home in yourself.
Slow, flowing bodywork for when the outcome you want is simply to switch off, soften and rest. Nothing to do – just space for you to unwind. That is a complete outcome in itself.
ABOUT
Michael Oshen (Oshi)
Many years ago, Hawaiian bodywork changed how I understood what massage could be. What I experienced was much more than relief from aches and tension.
To me, good lomi lomi brings together someone holding sacred space for you, deeply nurturing oceanic flow, heartful presence and a kind of holistic healing that can reach well beyond the physical. For me, that translates into feeling genuinely held, letting go at deeper layers, soulful nourishment and a real sense of coming home to myself.
That experience shaped the work I do now. I’ve worked with thousands of clients across Melbourne for over 12 years. My training spans remedial massage, advanced Ka Huna and Heartworks lomi lomi, reflexology, trauma-informed massage and breathwork.
I specialise in bringing lomi lomi and remedial massage together, with breathwork woven in where it suits. Each session is formed around the person in front of me. I work both technically and intuitively, but not vaguely. We start with what matters to you and adjust pressure, pace and focus as we go.
Some days that means focused work on a stubborn shoulder. Some days it means two hours where nothing is required of you. Often it’s both.
That meeting point — effective bodywork, soul-nurturing rest and a sense of coming home to yourself — is where Lomi Life lives.
What clients are saying
Lomi Life Massage Gift Certificates
A Lomi Life gift certificate gives someone you care about a dedicated window of time to genuinely decompress. This is the kind of experience that leaves people walking out wondering why they don’t do this more often.
Available for any session — remedial massage, lomi lomi massage, relaxation massage or embodied breathwork — and for any of The Experiences. At the Brunswick rooms, and in Elsternwick on Wednesdays.
