Lithos Rocks
Lithos therapy uses heated and chilled marble rocks as therapeutic instruments to enhance and prolong the benefits of health and beauty treatments for the body, face, hands and feet.
Therapeutic use of heated and chilled rocks.
Lithos Therapy involves the simultaneous use of thermotherapy (heat) and cryotherapy (cold) to alleviate pain and stiffness in joints and muscles, stimulate blood and lymphatic circulation, which encourages detoxification and accelerates healing.
The heat released by the black rocks works in the same way as an ultrasound and the chilled marble soothes and heals using the same principles as ice therapy.
The application of heated and chilled rocks is like gentle exercise of your circulatory system
