Lastone Hot & Cold Stone Massage: Hot stones in every stroke of therapist’s hands applied in a specific rhythmic pattern of repetitive strokes have an unparalleled relaxing effect. Based on Geothermal Therapy, this application is covered by Extended Benefits for its therapeutic value. If client desires, sporadically interspersed cold stones break up congestion, simmer chronic tension and increase blood flow to injury sites

                                                  

 

Approaching healthcare preventatively and proactively pays off. Those in the aging population often say that in their youth they were willing to sacrifice their health to make money, but now they would pay any amount of money to have their health back. Investing in health early on is one investment that will not be regretted, and getting regular massage to be sure all areas of the body are functioning optimally is a proactive approach well worth it.
