What is a Jane Scrivner Stone Therapy Session Like?

During a treatment you will lie on a massage couch, undressed but covered with a towel. Your therapist will then ask you to sit up and he/she will place stones on the massage couch alongside your spine, adjusting them carefully so that all your spinal muscles will be touched. These stones are then covered and you are asked to lie back down. Your treatment has just commenced.  A pillow is placed under your knees to support your lower back.  Stones are then placed in your hands and around your neck.  They are then placed along the main chakras on the front of the body, and the third eye (on the forehead) . The massage then begins.  Using oil, and hot and cool stones your legs, arms, shoulders, neck and face are carefully massaged. This can be either light or deep, depending on your needs, but all done with care and attention for your body and of course with stones. Small stones are placed between your toes after the legs have been massaged. 

Your therapist will remove the chakra stones from the front of your body. You will then be asked to sit up and the stones you were lying on will be removed. You then turn over and another stone is on the massage couch (covered) for your tummy. You are again covered with a towel and a pillow is placed under your ankles for support.  Your legs and back are then massaged with oil and stones. Now your back can be worked deeper as it has been lying on the stones initially and all your muscles are nice and loose so specific work can be undertaken, if necessary.

During a treatment your therapist will use basalt stones, alongside marble stones.  These are kept in iced water. The Basalt stones are heated in a heater.   Marble is a stone that has been used for protection over the centuries so in a Jane Scrivner treatment the same applies on both physical and emotional levels. Physically marble will stimulate your metabolism and it encourages healing. Emotionally marble helps to clear out.
