Thanks Pat. I just did my first two professional Hot Stones Massage this week. They both went very well. I was pleased.

Just wanted to mention that I did a hot stone massage on a man who had particularly hairy legs. He told me he had one before and he didn't like it because it hurt! Whoever did it before did not use enough massage oil, causing the stones to pull the hair out of his legs...ouch! Be sure to oil the legs first and then also oil the stones before using them on hairy legs or other body parts. This time he said it was very smooth and comfortable and he really enjoyed it.The more oil the better as a smooth glide is key to a good hot stone massage.

Comment by noreen zakrajsek on October 22, 2009 at 2:09pm Hello
I have some wonderful special stones that I picked up off the shores of Lake Michigan on the morning of September,2001. They came from such a beautiful area up in northern Mi. because of the history of them,I strongly feel that they are sacred.
But I do often wonder about possibly they do not hold the heat as long as some others may. I don't know for sure because this is all I have ever used.
They look like Basalt stones,But I am not sure.They are smooth and black.
Can someone tell me, do I need to look into different stones? Do I need to purchase them? That would be a big bummer,being that I live so close to the Great Lakes!
I definitely would appreciate ones that hold the warmth longer. I heat my stones up in a large roaster. THis was how I was taught.
For treatments unplanned, I will sometime just place them in a bowl to heat up in the microwave, for a short treatment of pleasure for my clients that are speical.

Thanks for your insight.
Namaste

My aswer:
Well I'm not an expert but according to my mind, the volcanic stone are the best to keep the temperature, when it's from the sea, the salt keep impregnate at the stone, and its a better conductor of hot. The stone recollected at lakes lost the temperature most easy. And other little think, isn't good put stone at the micro, just warm the water.

Well, have a wellness week

(Sorry if something it's write bad, my english is terrible, good luck)
