Schedule Of Classes
LaStone® Therapy
Original Body Workshop
LaStone® Therapy is a multifaceted technique designed to benefit client and therapist at once. The sacred wisdom of the stones, the clinical benefits of hydrotherapy and energy work, blend together to bring forth-therapeutic potential that goes beyond measure.
This unique form of massage utilizes 54 basalt, hot stones and 18-22 marble, jade or sardoynx cool stones. Geo-thermo-therapy is the term to describe the application of stones of contrasting temperatures for therapeutic effect to the body. Alternating temperatures creates ‘vascular gymnastics’ of the circulatory system, assisting the body in self-healing. Deep relaxation is only one of the benefits; grounding, balancing and release of energetic holding patterns frequently occur.
Therapists discover that the stress and strain of their hands, wrists and elbows is virtually eliminated using this modality. The stones and thermal variation do all the heavy work, so therapists are able to work more efficiently for longer periods of time.
All of those involved in this training will develop more reverence for their daily work rituals, because respect and appreciation grow organically from this fertile learning experience.
This is an advanced course of Massage therapy and offers 30 hours of CEU’s
