"Ahhh—an educational solution for my soul and spirit. My experience with Karyn
and The Sacred Stone was filled with light, peace and information that one can
only relate to if they have had the fortune to connect with Karyn and her lovely
presence. Karyn is a gifted healer and teacher. She taught me the beauty of
using stones in my treatments in a realistic and practical way. In addition, the
ayurvedic philosophies were an unexpected and welcome surprise." Alayne
White, Rhode Island Aveda Representative
Karyn
Chabot, D.Ay, LMT cognized Sacred Stone Facial Therapy in
1999 on the shores of Rhode Island and was the first to
bring this beautiful therapy to the East Coast. She coined
the phrase, "Hot Stone Massage", which is now used in most
spas around the world. Many others started doing and
teaching Hot Stone Massage, which gave rise to many new
versions of her invention. In order to preserve it's
authenticity, Karyn re-named it Sacred Stone Therapy. As the
inventor of this therapy, Karyn trained over 1,000 Sacred
Stone Therapists and is one of the leading continuing
education providers for licensed massage therapists and
healers. Sacred Stone Therapy integrates heated and chilled
sea stones into traditional massage therapy, based on
ancient Ayurvedic principles.
"Warm, aromatic neem oil (high in antioxidants) is applied
to the face and warm stones are smoothed over the facial
marma points. A few drops of sinus clearing oil are breathed
into the nostrils (This is optional). The neck and scalp are
deeply massaged by skilled hands, followed by warm stone
application. A stone is placed on the thymus gland; another
stone taps it gently to activate its energy. Warm stones and
crystals are laid upon the body in a sequence that follows
the ancient chakra system. The feet are massaged with warm
castor oil and then warm, thin stones are placed between the
toes in a pattern that balances the right and left
hemispheres of the brain and gently stretches the toes
apart."
