Most recently I have qualified in Hot Stones Massage & am getting ready to offer this to my clients. The stones are made of basalt, a volcanic rock that is able to retain the heat they gain whilst being gently heated in water.
The treatment is very much like a standard massage, but you will feel the difference in pressure & sensation as the stones glide over your body. It is a very useful way of getting into those really tight or hypertonic muscles that need a little more coaxing to relax.
I am still planning how I can offer this to clients on a mobile basis - as you can imagine there's a lot of extra kit involved!
Upcoming training
I have booked myself onto these courses:
- Advanced Massage Techniques - Jun 2009
- Freeing the Shoulders - Sept 2009
I hope to expand my repertoire of massage strokes and also learn some more stretching techniques to help tackle one of the most common problem areas I come across - the shoulders.
