Stone Massage Oh, My!

7 September 2007

Yes, I can now say I know what it feels like to have a massage done with hot stones. I am a little wiser now having felt what it is about, and understand the hubbub. It was explained to me there are different applications of stone therapy; stones are put along the spine and various places to heat tense muscles and promote relaxation. The La Stone Therapy utilizes hot and cold stones to massage, and the basic hot stone massage is utilized on hypertonic muscles to heat/relax them and then the stones are used as a tool to penetrate deeper into the muscles.

Now I can’t wait until I have the opportunity to use the stones on my clients. If you haven’t already had a stone massage, make an appointment.
