Basalt Massage Stones Shaped by Peruvian River Currents
These top - grade basalt stones are hand - selected from Peruvian rivers. The gentle river flow has naturally sculpted them into unique shapes. Infused with natural energy, they are carefully picked for their ideal thickness and excellent heat - holding ability. Since basalt is of volcanic origin, its mineral makeup, mostly silica with a bit of iron, allows the stones to retain heat remarkably well.
Unlike mass - made stones, every TheraTools hot stone is one - of - a - kind and fits comfortably in your palm.
These small stones are a perfect fit for therapists' hands. They're great for various massage techniques like effleurage and petrissage. You can also use them to target smaller, tighter body areas such as the neck. There are 8 stones, each about 2' - 2.5' in size. The colors may differ from one stone to another.
Using your TheraTools Basalt Stone Set is easy. First, heat the stones in a stone heater to a suitable temperature. Make sure the water in the heater is clean and at the right level. Once heated, carefully take out the stones. They fit perfectly in your hand, so you can use them for different massage strokes like long, gliding effleurage or kneading petrissage. You can also focus on smaller areas like the neck. When using, always test the stone's temperature on a small area of the skin first to avoid burns. After use, let the stones cool down completely. Then, wash them with mild soap and warm water to keep them clean. Store them in a dry place to prevent any damage. This way, your stone set will last a long time and keep providing great massage experiences.
