The philosophy behind warm stone therapy is the unity of body and spirit. Only a good psycho-physical condition guarantees health, great well-being and a radiant appearance. This is why the Quadrille Spa menu once again includes a stone massage to holistically complement the brand's [comfort zone] range of original massages or rituals.
Massage using hot stones is a relaxation and health-promoting technique that has been used since ancient times. It is said to have originated as early as five thousand years ago and is older than the acupuncture. Stones of volcanic origin are used for the massage itself. These are sourced from specially selected areas of the world - ecological, clean places. The basalt itself is selected for its shape and weight. Care is taken to ensure that their surface is perfectly smooth due to natural grinding by water and sand.
The movements of the stones during massage are based on the theory of energy flow through the body. Both Chinese and Indian medicine, as far back as ancient times, developed maps of the distribution of energy points and the channels connecting them. It is according to these that the stones are placed during the massage and then moved along the (meridian) channels, thus facilitating the flow of energy through the body. This treatment relaxes, de-stresses and restores balance. It is distinguished by its multifaceted effect on the entire body. Thus, it affects the skin, muscles, nervous, circulatory and lymphatic systems. It calms and minimises stress and relaxes. In addition, it combines various therapeutic techniques such as classic and lymphatic massage and thermotherapy, which is why it has been popular in massage and spa establishments for many years.
The lava stone massage will bring you relaxation and relief from discomfort. It is particularly recommended if you suffer from joint or back pain, especially in the neck area. Stone therapy helps overtired and stressed people regain their strength. Sometimes just one treatment is enough to make you feel much better, get rid of insomnia and feelings of depression. The most beneficial results are achieved when the treatments are used periodically, which is why we also recommend it for local guests.
