Details
Focused, precise, and deceptively powerful—these slim basalt stones are designed to help therapists release deep muscular tension with less strain and more control. Their compact, tapered shape allows for targeted pressure in the neck, shoulders, and other high-tension zones, while the naturally heat-retentive basalt delivers steady warmth to soften tissue and support nervous system relaxation.
Therapists appreciate the thumb-saving design. Clients feel the relief.
Includes: 2 slim basalt trigger-point stones
Features
- Tapered tip for deep, focused access
- Rounded ends and a flat base for versatility in gliding or static use
- Compact, lightweight design to reduce hand fatigue
- High-density basalt retains and delivers consistent warmth
- Smooth finish supports comfortable, controlled movement
Why You’ll Love These
- Delivers precise, soothing pressure to stubborn muscle knots
- Reduces hand and thumb strain during trigger-point work
- Fits easily into neck and shoulder contours
- Effective as a warm-up, release tool, or finisher in tension-focused services
Treatment Recommendations
Warm using a Theratools Warming Tray, Mobile Warming Bag, or roaster-style warmer. Always test temperature on your forearm before use, and check in with the client before applying pressure. Use for focused release in the upper trapezius, cervical spine, shoulder girdle, or glutes. Can be used for static pressure or gliding techniques to help unwind stubborn trigger points and promote circulation—especially helpful at the start or end of a session.
Best Used For
- Trigger-point therapy
- Myofascial release
- Chronic neck and shoulder tension
- Precision work where warmth deepens effectiveness
Historical & Interesting Facts
- Heated stones have long been used to target localized tension and energy blockages
- In ancient healing systems, warmth and pressure were applied to specific points to restore balance and encourage muscle release
- Basalt’s density and iron content make it ideal for delivering focused warmth without quick cooling
- River-smoothed stones have symbolic ties to flow, resilience, and therapeutic grounding
Care, Use & Safety
- Warm using a professional method
- Always test stone temperature before client contact
- Use oil or a massage medium to reduce drag as needed
- Wash with soap and warm water, then disinfect with an EPA-registered spray or wipe after every service
- Avoid sudden temperature changes or impact
- Allow to cool fully before storage
Technical Specs
- Material: Iron-rich basalt
- Density: ~2.9 g/cm³
- Size Range: Approximately 3–4″ long × 0.5–1″ diameter
- Shape: Rounded ends with a tapered tip and flat base
- Use: Heated for static or gliding trigger-point applications
- Sanitation: Soap and warm water, followed by EPA-registered disinfectant
Please Note
As with all naturally sourced stones, minor variations in color, grain, and dimensions are to be expected—and are part of what gives each stone its character.
