No Bull Hot Stone Massage Video
I saw this hot stone massage video today and I got really upset on how complicated some people really make this simple therapy. I use them for the last 15 years, because you can increase the flow of chi in a chronic (cold) area, where there is not enough chi. But you can also just use a hot water bottle.
What really tipped me off was that the lady said, that the massage therapist can ruin his hands when the water of the rocks is too hot. Duh, what about the client. It's simple: If you need a ladle to get the rocks out of the water, don't think about putting it on a client. This just makes me want to scream.
Anyway, that's why I put together this little video about Hot rocks massage, because it it is a very straight forward application and I feel that people just want to make it more mysterious than it actually is. That's why in many places people charge you twice as much for a hot stone massage than for a regular massage, even though the therapist is only doing half the work.
Clever, right? But that doesn't mean that hot stones are not great. They are, especially in connection with meridian treatment and other chi based massage therapies. But let's start with the basics first:
