Massage Stones & Heaters
-
A massage using stones is relaxing and rejuvenating.
Hot stone massage is more effective than regular massage because the heat helps to relax the muscles and energy points through which the internal energy flows, and the massage with the stones themselves helps to reach deeper tissues and thus increase the effect of the massage on the body.
