These super sized stones can be used as massage or placement stones

Flat ovular basalt stones are the most popular choice of stones used by therapists as the flat, polished surface aids in heat retention and they are the most comfortable and convenient shaped stone to use. The elongated round shape fits perfectly in the palm of the hand and the rounded narrower edges can be used for pressure and kneading motions on particularly tense muscles.

Each stone is approximately L15 x W8.5 x H2.7cm.

How to Use:

1. Preparation: Begin by placing the basalt stones in a stone heater or a bowl of hot water, heating them to a temperature between 45°C and 55°C. Ensure that the stones are comfortably warm to the touch, but not too hot to avoid burning the client’s skin.
2. Application: Start by applying a light layer of massage oil to the client’s skin to allow the stones to glide smoothly. Use the super large stones to target broad areas such as the back, thighs, and abdomen. Move the stones in slow, steady strokes, applying gentle pressure to relax muscles and enhance blood circulation.
3. Integration: Incorporate the stones into your existing massage techniques. For deep tissue work, you can use the edge of the stone to apply more focused pressure on knots or tension points. For a more relaxing massage, maintain a fluid motion, allowing the heat to penetrate deeply into the muscles.
4. Aftercare: After use, clean the stones thoroughly with warm water and an antibacterial soap. Dry them completely before storing them in a cool, dry place.
