Prerequisite: Chair Massage background and or Original Body course

LaStone Seated Stone Course is designed for the chair massage therapist to benefit both the client and the therapist in the work arena. Tight muscles caused by stress and sitting behind a desk all day, especially at a workstation that is not ergonomically designed, can impede blood and lymph flow through the body. The result is decreased energy and susceptibility to repetitive stress injuries, like carpal tunnel syndrome.

Chair massage counters the circulatory problems inherent with office work, and provides employees with much appreciated breaks from their weekly routines. Sitting in a massage chair opens up the back muscles, relieves strain on the neck and provides a gentle respite for eyes usually glued to a computer monitor. Even 15 minutes of massage to the neck, back, arms and hands can increase circulation, returning energy levels and helping keep the body injury free.

Circulation is rapidly changed when Geo-Thermal-Therapy is added to the seated experience; if circulation is increased, then so to is nutrition and the way that every cell in the body responds to the experience of the alternating temperatures being applied.  It is believed that when you increase the blood flow through the skin, detoxification is increased, supporting the liver, bowels, kidneys, lymphatic and circulatory systems.  All of the body’s systems continue to respond for seventy-two hours after a LaStone® treatment, during which healing occurs within the body. When using both heated and chilled stones in a massage, you are accelerating the exchange of blood, lymph, and digestive fluids in the body.  When using heated/warm stones throughout the body, you increase the blood flow to these areas. Isolating chilled/cool stones to an inflamed area will facilitate the removal of toxins and inflammation, encouraging a healing response deep within the body’s systems.

In this one day workshop we will show you how to incorporate the art of Geo-Thermal-Therapy coupled with the foundations of LaStone Therapy into a 15-minute seated experience.

If you are pregnant or think you are pregnant we regret that you cannot attend the Simply Stones workshop until after delivery. This is due to the fact that you cannot participate fully in the hands on portion of the workshop. It is also known that aromatherapy, smudging, and body temperature changes can cause complications during pregnancy.
We have created several workshops that you can attend;
