Stone therapy is a type of thermotherapy that uses stones to generate both heat and cold; the use of contrasting temperatures can be very beneficial. Key acupressure points are massaged with heated volcanic stones; the heat relaxes the muscles, enabling a deeper massage. Blood can be drawn from a swollen area, inflammation can be treated with cold stones, and the male and female energies in the body can be balanced again to bring about harmony in the body. Additionally, cold stones can be used to aid in detoxification.
Several conditions, including the following, can be treated with stone therapy massage:
Immune and lymphatic system enhancement.
Elevated cellular activity
Improvement in blood flow
Both inflammation and muscle damage
alleviating stress and fostering a sense of wellbeing
Harmonising the energies of men and women
