Hot Stone Therapy |
Stone
Therapy is a variation on classic massage therapy.
Stones have been used by the Chinese, Egyptians,
Native American and the Incas. Stone Therapy is a
very relaxing treatment used to create balance
within the body. It is based on go-thermal therapy
which is using heated and or cold stones on the body
to relax, cool, sooth and reduce inflammation. The
stones are placed under and on top of the body and
between the toes according to the Chakra System. Oil
is applied to the body and then it is massage with
the stones.
Heat from the basalt stones increases blood flow and
relaxes muscles and the weight of the stones creates
a deep massage which is comforting and nurturing; a
wonderful treatment which brings balance to the body
leaving you with a sense of wellbeing |
The use of hot stones for healing, warmth,
ceremonial purposes and rituals dates back to
ancient times. The Native American Indians, Chinese
and Japanese cultures have used stones in their
diagnosis and treatment of disease for centuries.
