THE HISTORY

Ayurveda is a holistic system of healing, which evolved in India about 3 – 5,000 years ago.  It looks at each person, as a unique individual and focuses on establishing and maintaining balance of life energies. It seeks to heal the fragmentation and disorder of the mind-body complex and restore wholeness and harmony.  The main objectives of this science are preservation of health and prevention of disease.

Hot stone therapy is one of the fastest growing new therapies in Europe.  The treatment has ancient roots and stones have been used for warmth and healing since the beginning of time.  The Japanese use stones to warm their abdomens to aid digestion and the Chinese have been using hot stones to relieve muscular pain for some 4,000 years.  Lots of people carry stones for good fortune or for healing: we even use pumice stones on our feet to help us get rid of unwanted hard skin. 

It is estimated that one stroke with a hot stone is worth ten strokes with the hand.
