Stone massage therapy has been used in cultures around the world for many years. Healers used rocks from river beds and warmed them either in hot coals or hot water. Placing the hot stones in cloth on the body and arranging them along the energy centres of the body would help to relax the muscles, reduce pain or discomfort and boost the healing process.
