What does Nalu, Aloha and Kammanuroo Kaamp Mean to Us

 

At Nalu Massage Training and Wellness Centre, every word we share carries a ripple of meaning, just like the gentle flow of waves. These words are more than greetings or names they are the essence of who we are and what we offer.
 
Nalu (Hawaiian)

 

Nalu means “wave” and “to flow.” It also speaks of reflection, meditation, and allowing life’s energy to move gently through you. To us, Nalu represents the flow of healing, learning, and transformation the way touch, energy, and intention create ripples that extend far beyond the treatment room.
 
Aloha (Hawaiian)

 

Aloha is often used as a greeting, but its true meaning is much deeper. It speaks of love, peace, compassion, and living with an open heart. Aloha is the guiding principle of how we hold space for our clients and students with kindness, respect, and connection.
 
Kammanuroo Kaamp (Kalkatungu)

 

Kammanuroo Kaamp a beautiful greeting from the Kalkatungu (Kalkadoon) people of Mount Isa, meaning “Good Day.”

These are my people. I am Aboriginal from this Country, and this greeting carries the voice, spirit, and continuity of my ancestors. By sharing Kammanuroo Kaamp, I honour the Kalkatungu people as the custodians of this land and acknowledge the deep connection to Country that continues to hold, heal, and guide us.

The healing practices shared here are grounded in knowledge that has lived in this land for thousands of years — passed through story, touch, relationship, and respect for Country. This space is offered with that knowing, and with care for both my Country and yours.


 Why This Matters
When you visit Nalu, you are not, just entering a wellness space. You are stepping into a place where ancient wisdom, gentle flow, and heartfelt connection meet. Here, you are welcomed as you are, with openness and an open heart.

​Our goal is to help you feel better through, therapeutic massage, Bush flower consultations that gently restore balance to your mind, body, and spirit.
That’s it. Nothing extra, nothing inappropriate. Just healing  and good vibes.

About

Star-1.png

Debbie McRobie ACOA QP (M.Aroma.Nat.Th)
Qualified Massage Therapist, Clinical Aromatherapist and Natural Therapist 

Meet Your Trainer

Debbie's journey of healing and transformation began at an early age. While others pursued sports and dance, she immersed herself in understanding the healing properties of plants and the land, guided by the love and wisdom of her father, nana, sister, and two brothers.

Her fascination with massage therapy began in 1988. She was captivated by its remarkable ability to alleviate stress and pain, enhance muscle relaxation, and improve circulation and lymphatic flow - a cornerstone of holistic health.

In 1991, Debbie decided to transition from a career in hospitality to training adults, helping them build confidence and skills for better employment opportunities. This experience was pivotal, igniting her passion for teaching and empowering others.

Although her time in the corporate sector was extensive, it never quite felt like home. Her true calling emerged when she pursued a Dual Master Qualification in Aromatherapy and Natural Therapy, which eventually led her to Nalu Massage Training. Under the mentorship of Jen Barnett, the founder of Nalu, she discovered the profound practice of Lomi Lomi. The spirit of Aloha reinvigorated Debbie's path. Now, as the custodian of Nalu Massage Training, Debbie is dedicated to sharing her transformative knowledge and skills with others. Her journey continues, and she is honoured to guide others on their own paths to healing and growth through living life full of Aloha.

 I have had the honor to complete training in the hands of the amazing Debbie 3 times now, completing Hot Lava Shell Massage, Lava Mumma Massage and the Nalu Breathwork, I am also about to do another training with Deb which I truly cannot wait for and, be apart of this amazing tribe. 

 

From the moment I meet Debbie I knew I would walk away with something truly incredible and unique to offer to others in my community. Deb made the experience spectacular, I felt at home, while receiving the most professional and inspiring training I have ever experienced. As a massage therapist of 19 years I have done many training courses and I have never felt more confident, comfortable and motivated as I have with Nalu Academy. The way the training is structured is very different from what I have experienced in the past and it is absolutely amazing. You feel more connected and relaxed with your surroundings and work you are doing. You do not feel as though you are being assessed, You just feel whole. 

 

If others ask where should they train Deb and Nalu would be the first place I Direct them to. 

 

I am so thankful to now be apart of this amazing community and family and I can not wait to continue my journey with Nalu. 

Much love Renae

I took Lomi Lomi (March 2023), Lava Shell (June 2023) and Lava Mumma training (Aug 23) with Nalu Massage – where Deb was my teacher. 

 

Deb demonstrated excellent knowledge on the topics and was a calm, heart centred teacher with so much patience and understanding for all learning styles. Deb uses real world examples of situations and prepared us for much of what we were likely to come across with our clients. 

 

Deb’s support is continuous as she is always 100% there for ex-students through a Facebook community of practice. When any of us (ex-students) have questions, or need support with where to purchase equipment, quality of equipment, insurance, special needs of clients with particular conditions and how to emotionally regulate after a difficult situation – Deb answers every time. 

 

For me, Deb’s support is above and beyond. I’ve never had this level of ongoing support from any course before. Deb teaches from the heart and she genuinely cares about our ongoing wellbeing and success in the Lomi Lomi massage business. 

 

Last year, when I wanted to begin to offer Lomi Lomi, I was just starting out and needed some additional help to build confidence. Deb arranged for a 1:1 Lomi Lomi practice session for me to address any and all concerns I had about getting the moves right and transitions from move to move. I now run a successful small business offering Lomi Lomi and Reiki, and thanks to the community of practice I feel I have an excellent safety net for ongoing support and guidance. 

 

I am more than happy to further discuss my learning experience with Deb if required.
