LaStone Therapy is an ancient practice originating thousands of years ago by the Native Americans. It has been re-introduced in the United States in the summer of 1993. Since then, it has become very popular with massage therapists who use LaStone therapy for deep, penetrating massages and highly effective energy work.
Specially smooth and heated stones are laid along the meridians of the body or on specific pressure points where they help to warm the muscles, soothe stiff joints, regulate blood flow and relief stress, tension and general body aches. This is then combined with a gentle Swedish style massage using aromatherapy oils tailored to your specific needs. As the heat from the stones penetrates your body, the therapist will massage your legs, arms, back, shoulders and neck, finishing off with a light relaxing face and scalp massage. One stroke with a stone is worth ten with the hands!
The whole treatment leaves the body RELAXED and REVITALISED. It is said to clear the body’s energy channels which promotes well being and good health.
THE RESULT IS PURE PHYSICAL & MENTAL RELAXATION…
“Most people say that after even their first session, they have the best sleep they’ve had for a long time, and that they can’t wait to come back for more!!!”
