Stone Massage Therapy
Stone massage is a unique massage experience offering a sense of profoundness and sacredness that we too often forget. It's a deep healing and relaxing therapy that enhances our awareness and brings us closer to our true essence. It is the perfect treatment that is as enjoyable and healing for the client.
Stone massage involves the application of water-heated basalt stones of varying sizes to key trigger points on the body, giving a deep massage and creating sensations of comfort and warmth. The direct heat relaxes muscles, allowing manipulation of a greater intensity than a regular massage. This ensures that every cell in the body receives more oxygen and nutrients while at the same time waste material is removed more effectively through the corresponding increase in lymph flow.
In cases of muscular injury and inflammation frozen, cooling marble stones can be used. This creates a type of thermotherapeutic 'vascular gymnastics' in the circulatory system to help the body detoxify and heal. The warmer stones expand the blood vessels, pushing blood and unwanted waste materials through the body. This has a sedative effect on the nervous system. The cold stones cause the blood vessels to constrict, stimulating the nervous system and drawing blood and waste products along the body.
It is quite an experience to feel the deeply relaxing, penetrating heat from the basalt stones alternating with the toning and refreshing coolness of the marble stones. The use of extremes of temperature has long been scientifically and medically proven to be of benefit to the body. Those who wish to relax and tone their muscles with minimum of effort see this in the use of ice packs for muscle trauma and the use of saunas.
