When Combined with Other Massage Types

• Deepens the calming impact of prenatal, postpartum, or sobada massages

🔸 A Global Tradition of Healing with Stones

The use of heated stones for healing dates back thousands of years and spans continents. Cultures across the globe have long turned to warm stones as a way to soothe the body, calm the mind, and connect with spirit.

• Indigenous North & Central American Practices Many Native American tribes used hot stones in sweat lodges and healing ceremonies. Similarly, in Mesoamerican cultures, the temazcal—a sacred steam bath—relied on hot stones placed in earthen saunas to generate purifying steam. At Tainica, we echo this tradition with our steamed limpiezas, a powerful cleansing ritual that also includes hot stone work.
