...a spa speciality.
La Stone Therapy, the original hot stone massage, is a Native American healing art using smooth dense lava stones found in Arizona riverbeds. Over fifty stones are used during a treatment. Different sizes and shapes correspond to body parts such as hand and toe stones.
When heated, the stones are oiled and used along with Swedish massage to generate more heat and penetrate deeper in the muscles. Chilled marble stones are used later in the treatment for balance. The use of hand-crafted, polished, white marble stones to deliver cooling temperatures is a natural balance to the dark, ocean tumbled basalt stones used to warm the body.
The alternating temperatures between 32 and 140 degrees help create a faster healing reaction. Only a certified La Stone Therapist can deliver such a grounding and sedating treatment.
A La Stone session can be 55 minutes or 80 minutes. Chakra balancing and a spinal layout of stones are arranged for placement to soothe and ease muscle tension. Used in a variety of different treatments such as massage, facials and body treatments, the benefits of heated and chilled stones for therapeutic results in chronic and acute situations take relaxation and promotion of restoring tissue to a whole new level.
