Editorial Reviews

Learn the basics of hot stone massage and how to create a relaxing, gentle and effective treatment for your client. Once you have viewed the DVD and read the manual, you can then take a CEU exam worth 8 NCBTMB, ABMP, AMTA Continuing Education Credits. Your exam is sent to our school for grading, and upon successful completion, a certificate is then returned to you for display. The DVD based program, produced by the Institute for Massage and Spa Therapy Education (IMSTE), in conjunction with the Institute for Therapeutic Massage (ITM), 6 Massage Therapy Schools in New Jersey, is designed to show the benefits and contraindications of using hot stones while providing 2 full-body and facial demonstrations (by different therapists) to help you integrate one of the most requested spa services into your massage therapy routine. Body workers will also be shown the equipment needed, how to set up a workspace, the techniques to use, and how to use the stones safely and effectively. It is recognized that all therapists have their own style, and this video provides the tools and flexibility to create your own routine. By combining the warm stones with a deep flowing massage, the result is an extremely soothing massage for your client while saving the wear and tear on the therapists hands. The heat from the stones allows for the release of muscle tissue at a greater intensity than with some other forms of massage.

This review is from: Hot Stone Massage - Healing Through Touch DVD w/ CEU Exam & 18 Page User Manual (DVD)

Hi,

I'm still learning hot stone massage, but so far, the quiz section is very good. Challenging enough to keep me motivated but not to hard. Very descriptive book and DVD.
