Black shiny smooth stones covered in water droplets. Used for Chinese massage treatments.


Chinese used heated stones more than 2,000 years ago as a means of improving the function of internal organs. These traditions included laying stones in patterns on the body, carrying or wearing stones for health and protection, using stones for the diagnosis and treatment of disease, and for ceremonial uses, such as sweat lodges and medicine wheels.
