The moist heat of high denstiy stones penetrates the tissues increasing blood flow and circulation. The movement of the hot stones increases lymph flow to boost the immune system and release toxins. The thermal properties of the stones bring about local and systemic changes in the body, influencing the energy centers and balancing both body and mind. The unique energies of the stones balance the body’s internal energy flow (chi).
