In this oil-based massage, stones of various shapes and sizes are placed on areas of the body, including trigger points, to bring about the release of tension both physically and mentally. The therapist may also hold the stones and use them to give a relaxation massage or to massage tight muscles. Both heated and chilled stones may be used.
Heated stones are used to promote blood and lymph flow plus the heat is soothing for deep tissue therapy. Chilled stones can be used to reduce inflammation by moving blood out of the area. As well as relaxation or deep tissue therapy, this massage may enhance our spiritual connection to the earth’s energy and aid in balancing male/female energies. |
