• The ‘stone therapy’ is the most popular tendency in the most pretigious Spas in the world.
• It is inspired in the Oriental disciplines, according to which seven chakras are located throughout the central channel of the body –centres of the vital energy, that correspond to several organs.
• The massages with hot and cold stones are not a new thing. From a long time ago, both the Chinese culture and the culture of Native Americans used hot stones to give massages and alleviate pains.
• From the chakra points, the energy is distributed to all the organism, thanks to the numerous energetic channels that cross it and that are united to them.
• Focusing on the chakras helps, therefore, regulating the energy flow in the body (too much or too little energy in cyrcle can create disorders). Precisely, with this objective, during the stone therapy, the hot stones are disposed on the chakras to next proceed to the energy ‘opening’ and ‘closing’ and to the connection, also with energy, of the upper and lower members.
