SPORTS MASSAGE
Athletes are now realising the benefits of LaStone
massage and
it is also now being introduced to football clubs.
Massaging with
stones will quickly move lactic acid, and the contrasting
temperatures
improves circulation, increases flow of lymph and
stimulates the
nervous system.
Paul Norris, Bolton
“I would always expect to get stiffness the day after a
hard
training run or triathlon, but since I started having
regular LaStone
sports massage, the lactic acid is quickly moved and I’m
raring
to go the next day.”

SPORTS INJURIES WITH LASTONE
Calf muscles, Achilles tendons, tennis elbow,
plantafascitias,
hamstrings shoulder injuries and back problems have all
been treated
successfully with LaStone. The recovery time can be much
quicker
than other methods and a lot of injuries can re-occur, but
the stones
break down the scar tissue to help prevent this.
Shaun Gray, Leigh
“I love my squash and hate being out of action, but when I
got an Achilles injury I thought that I would be out for
several
weeks, after listening to others who have had the injury.
But two
sessions of LaStone and I was back swinging my bat again.”

List
LASTONE REMEDIAL
MASSAGE
As we get older muscle tendons and ligaments shorten.
This can
cause stiffness, bad posture, back problems and a tight
chest. To
do nothing about this would be a down hill spiral. LaStone
remedial
massage along with some gentle exercise, will keep those
muscles
supple, relieve stiffness and tension and bring a better
blood flow
back to those muscles once again.
Terry Cooke, Manager
“After 20 years of back pain I thought that I had tried
everything
and was beginning to think that it was something I would
just have
to live with. But then I discovered LaStone. After the
first session
it was fifty per cent better. After the second I was pain
free.
Miracles really do happen.”

LASTONE REFLEXOLOGY
Every part of the body is connected by energy pathways to
reflex
points on the soles of the feet. The stones take
reflexology to
another level. Tiny deposits in the feet are cleared to
restore
the energy flow to the whole of the body. Reflexology can
relieve
conditions such as back pain, insomnia, rheumatism, and
stress,
migraine, asthma, bladder and period problems.
Brenda Askew, Westhoughton

reflexology
it gave it another dimension. It is totally relaxing and I
always
feel the benefit of each treatment.”

HOPI
EAR CANDLE
Therapists - Val
Barker, Dougie Tobutt,
Brenda
Kirkham
Hopi Ear Candle is an ancient healing process that
involves placing
a process wax-coated cloth in your ear and lighting it.
The heat
from the flame passes down the tube and softens any wax
before drawing
it out into the base of the cone. It is soothing and
helpful for
earache, headache, ear noise and stress. It also helps
with catarrh,
ear pressure and sooths sinus irritations, whilst
improving hearing,
smell and taste. Ear candles have a purely physical
function. A
light suction action (chimney effect) and the movement of
the flame
create a vibration of air in the ear candle, generating a
massage
like effect on the eardrum. This induces a pleasant
feeling of warmth
and a balance of pressure in the ears, forehead and
sinuses. The
benefits have been well known through therapists and
confirmed by
thousands of doctors worldwide.

HEALING
Therapists - Rachel
Foy
In today’s environment we are exposed to
large
numbers of toxins from the chemical laden air we breathe
to the
foods we eat laced with additives, preservatives and
colourings.
Our bodies treat these substances as poisons, which over
time stay
in the body and build up as something called a ‘toxin
load’.
For many people this toxicity can be the underlying cause
of numerous
long-standing medical complaints and also contribute
towards future
sickness and disease. CEDS (Computerised Electro Derma
Screening)
treatment is effective in helping many conditions such as:
Skin
Problems, Weight issues, Digestion, Arthritis, Migraines,
Viruses,
Hyperactivity, Fatigue, Thyroid, Muscular and other
serious health
problems.
