I’ve never experienced a remedial massage that got deep into my muscles and felt completely nurturing the whole way through.★★★★★ Charizma, Google Review
With a daily life where I’m super busy and doing things for others, I came for a Lomi Lomi massage with Michael with the intention to relax, relieve shoulder pain and connect to my heart. Within moments I safely surrendered… and sank into a nurturing bliss like I have never experienced before. My shoulder pain has gone, my heart is now wide open and my whole body is relaxed.★★★★★ Sarah, Google Review
I went in feeling very stressed and came out feeling relaxed, calm, and grounded. The space is lovely, peaceful, and welcoming. Oshi is kind, warm, and attentive, taking the time to tailor the massage to my needs. I felt genuinely cared for throughout the session and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing and restorative experience.
★★★★★ Tovah, Google Review
Always a wonderful experience with Oshi. He is highly intuitive with this work and always shows care to his clients. I’ve worked with him for a few years and I’ll continue going.★★★★★ Anh, Google Review
Michael carefully explained everything he was going to do and checked that I was ok before starting. I felt completely safe and able to be ‘myself’. And I felt looked after and valued throughout the session.★★★★★ Emma, Google Review

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…
Your neck, shoulders, back or jaw have become impossible to ignore.
You’re still functioning, still getting things done, but running lower than you let on.
- You’re tired but wired and can’t wind down.
You feel stuck, disconnected, out of alignment or not quite yourself.
- You’d like two hours of skilled, unhurried, genuinely nurturing touch — which is reason enough on its own.
You’re looking for support around grief or loss, or a slow, safe, trauma-informed approach to touch.
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.

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.

Amelia Boot12 days agoSuch a phenomenal treatment. Oshi talks to you nervous system, your body and your soul. Could not recommend him more.Posted on Google
Cara Sealey23 days agoA truly life-changing massage! So incredibly nourishing for both body and spirit. I felt so deeply held and cared for throughout the entire experience, which allowed me to properly let go and surrender. Such a beautiful, grounding and restorative experience. Left feeling very grateful, thank you Oshi!!!Posted on Google
Bree Zampogna81 days agoI have been a big fan of Lomi Lomi style massages since I discovered them some 15 years ago so was delighted when I found someone close to home who specialises in this technique. This gets o to your mind in a different way than other massages I’ve experienced and leaves you feeling refreshed and more calm without a zillion thoughts zinging around. If you’ve not tried it before Oshi will look after you.Posted on Google
OddlyEndearing83 days agoI love a relaxation massage, but am particularly sensitive to touch and, in my quest to find a great masseuse, have found it surprisingly difficult to find someone who can not only provide a gentle touch, but maintain that same level of pressure throughout the session. A firm touch seems to be the default, even when you specifically ask for something light. Then I found Lomi Life Wellness. Or rather, then I met Oshi who has completely redefined my expectations of what a massage can be, and this goes beyond his ability to deliver a gentle, consistent touch. In fact, part of what sets him apart starts before you even step into the room with his intake form. Never before, in the twenty-something years I’ve been getting massages, have I encountered a questionnaire that addressed whether I find it difficult to voice dissatisfaction during a massage. As someone who does struggle with this, I found that question to be a complete game-changer, as it then opened up a dialogue between Oshi and me that informed the rest of the session and ensured every element of it met my needs. Now for the massage itself, I feel like I don’t have the words to accurately capture the experience. Yes, it was gentle and soothing, but it also felt deeply meaningful, and at times, even spiritual. Something about the combination of Oshi’s touch, and the care and intention behind it made the experience feel like so much more than just a massage. It was genuinely one of those experiences where you leave feeling as though something has shifted, even if you can’t quite articulate what it was. The only downside to Oshi’s work, however, is that once you’ve experienced it, you won’t want to see anyone else. Thank you, Oshi!Posted on Google
Kirilee Kuskopf93 days agoAmazing ❣️ felt calm safe & grounded from the moment I walked into the beautiful waiting room & then the massage room/space was like another big walm hug 🫂 1st lomi lomi massage & I will definitely be back for more, helps heal the body & the heart ❤️Posted on Google
Sally McKennariey113 days agoI've had the privilege of experiencing Michael's Lomi Lomi massage over the years, and I didn't think it could become even more meaningful. Since incorporating guided breathwork into his sessions, the experience has deepened in a way that is both grounding and restorative. Michael facilitates the breathwork with genuine professionalism, care and a calm, reassuring presence. Whether you're new to breathwork or have previous experience, he creates a space where you feel safe, supported and able to simply trust the process. His guidance is gentle, intuitive and never forced, allowing the session to unfold naturally. The integration of breathwork with Lomi Lomi massage is something I would highly recommend experiencing. The breathwork prepares both the body and mind to receive the massage more fully, while the flowing nature of the Lomi Lomi beautifully complements the emotional and physical release that can occur. Together, they create an experience that feels far more holistic than either modality alone. If you've been considering trying breathwork but aren't sure where to start, or if you already appreciate the benefits of Lomi Lomi massage, I genuinely believe this integrated approach is well worth experiencing. Michael's skill, compassion and professionalism shine through every aspect of the session, making it a truly nurturing and memorable experience.Posted on Google
Tovah Cottle141 days agoI went into the massage feeling very stressed and came out feeling relaxed, calm, and grounded. The space is lovely, peaceful, and welcoming.

Darren Knight322 days agoRecently tried the embodied breathwork session with Oshen and it was a powerful and worthwhile experience. He took the time to understand my areas of need, and explain what I could expect at each step on the journey. When the session finished I was left feeling a sense of calm and clarity of thought that I hadn't experienced for as long as I could remember. Aside from breathwork I have visited Oshen for lomi massage many times before and can say with confidence it's something you don't forget. The amount of care this man exhibits is apparent and exceptional.Posted on Google

Rita Scicluna385 days agoI have been seeing Oshi (Michael) for a few years now on a regular basis.

His blend of Hawaiian Lomi Lomi and remedial massage is effective in so many ways. Yes, a supportive, caring, genuine soul, who is truly gifted and takes his work seriously, providing physical, mental and emotional support. A healing, amazing, relaxing experience everytime. Highly recommended for sure!! Thank you Oshi, always grateful.Posted on Google
Kay Gee402 days agoOshi's repeated 5-star ratings are entirely warranted. His lomi is a completely different style to any of the traditional massages I've ever experienced. He is incorporating all senses, using insence, gentle music and vibration through a singing bowl. He makes you feel entirely at ease, offering different options of how much of your body you feel comfortable exposing. The movements feel meditative, ritualist and healing. You leave floating away in a little bubble of calm relaxation.Posted on Google

Jessica Walter547 days agoFound Oshen and lomi life after my previous massage therapist moved away and I’m very glad I did! So many massage therapists I tried would only focus on one or two problem areas but Oshen takes a holistic and adaptable approach that I find so much more effective. I’m new to lomi lomi but it’s a lovely balance of healing and relaxation and Oshen incorporates more remedial when needed. Will be visiting again very soon in Brunswick! 🫶🏻Posted on Google
