These smooth basalt stone are specially selected to hold their heat. The heat from the stones can help relax the muscles and improve blood flow to the area which can help release muscle tension.

Various sizes, shapes and weights of stones can be used with differing pressures and techniques to address specific problems. The pressure level is selected to be comfortable for the client.
