Hot Stone or LaStone Therapy By using hot stones the muscles can be warmed up and relaxed more efficiently and pressure can be 10 x greater.  This takes the pressure off the therapist and gives pressure to the individual. La Stone uses cold marble stones after the hot stone massage this helps with areas of inflammation and nerve stimulation.

The concept of massage therapy using stones has been practiced in different cultures for many years. Tribal Healers and Village Wise Women used rocks from the riverbeds, and warmed them either in hot coals or hot water. They would then place the hot stones on a cloth, and arrange them along the energy points of the body; this would help to relax the muscles and reduce pain or discomfort, and therefore support the healing process.

Any massage oil left over from the treatment I will bottle up in a dark blue bottle so you can take home and add it later to a bath or inhale over steam.
