HOT STONE MASSAGE THERAPY -
Text by Judith Barlow
Hot Stone Therapy is not only relaxing and rejuvenating, it’s as though the oiled stones
melt away cares and stress to leave you feeling like you’ve just been ‘in’ an island dream,
experiencing the essence of the earth.
Stones with special mineral properties from volcanic areas of all around the world are warmed
and placed on the chakras while the rest of your body is gently massaged
with more warmed stones.
Each precious stone is placed around you, and when it has finished doing its work then they are
all removed from your body one by one, taking with them all your cares and woes. This allows you
to reconnect to your inner strength.
Throughout history, healers from all over the world have used hot stones in their healing process.
Even in early BC, the Roman Empire was noted for their stones in saunas.
If you live distant to your homeland, one way you can connect when you get homesick is to
go to the beach. Stand just ankle deep in the water. Feel the wave gently kissing your ankles
as it swirls around them. Knowing that this wave has touched your homeland and now is touching you.
As the wave swirls around your ankles and then gently moves back out to sea, acknowledge that
at some point in time this very wave will caress the shores of your homeland again, connecting
you with its soil. This way you will never be far from home, You will ALWAYS
have a connection
