For a total relax, there is nothing better than a LaStone massage. It is totally flexible to suit the client’s needs. It creates balance and harmony on all levels. Using deep, penetrating, heated stones and alternating with chilled stones, brings about a chemical release within the body’s system to balance and recharge you mentally, emotionally and physically. 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. 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. 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. 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.
