The Breath in the Stone

For thousands of years many indigenous cultures have honored that stones are sacred, utilising their properties for healing and have sourced stones locations for sacred ritual and worship sites.
Stone massage is an ancient and enduring form of healing bodywork where its many benefits effect our emotional, physical and spiritual beings.

More recently stone work has experienced resurgence in the modern spa industry with luxuriant relaxation treatments and facials.
The many healing benefits have been recognised by progressive healers all over the world.
Stone therapy utilises the benefits of massage therapy with its ability to enhance circulation and reduce muscle tension. Pointed textures are used as tools to De-activate trigger points and deep tissue massage.
Healing stone therapy requires a harmonious understanding of healing energies between the client, the therapist and the stones. For healing to take place there must be transference of deep compassion and trust between the therapist and the client.
Stones are swirling microcosms of energy, of life, or the divine. They are from the earth thus carry the earth's vibration in essence.
The honoring, cleaning and treatment of the stones are imperative for their healing potential.
