The Healing Stones of Kapaemahu
The island has a compelling history and mythology.
According to legend, more than 500 years ago, four Tahitian wizards, Kapaemahu, Kahaloa, Kapuni, and Kinohi, journeyed to Hawaii to share their healing practices and traditions with the Hawaiian people. When it was time for the wizards to return home, they asked the Hawaiians to select four symbols that would be erected in their honor to ensure that the healing powers would remain for generations.
The Hawaiians selected four large boulders that were brought to the beach from the Kaimuki area and the wizards transferred their powers into the stones. These stones sit directly across the street from Nā Ho‘ōla Spa near the area they were left hundreds of years ago and are known as the Wizard Stones, or Healing Stones, of Kapaemahu.
For centuries in Hawaii, Waikiki was a royal reserve. Natural land boundaries were formed by a number of streams that flowed to the ocean and one of the most revered land divisions was called Hamohamo. The royal retreat for the Chief Aikanaka and his descendants King Kalakaua, the Princesses Likelike and Ka’iulani, and Hawaii’s last Queen, Lili’uokalani. It was believed that the waters spouting from the ground held healing powers and Hamohamo was reserved for Hawaiian Royalty. This land is now home to Nā Ho‘ōla, which means “many healers.”
Kalo, Noni, Kukui, Awa
Four traditional Hawaiian healing plants make up the spa logo, Kalo, Noni, Kukui and Awa. These plants were vital to the ancient Hawaiians’ way of life and are found in many of the products that are used in the spa’s treatments. Nā Ho‘ōla prides itself on using the history of Hawaiian traditions and techniques and incorporates signature products made on the islands. In keeping with the traditions of the islands, Nā Ho‘ōla seeks to promote health and wellness through the practice of Hawaiian culture, its values and its healing arts.
