This therapy induces a light sweat,
coaxing toxins to leave the body through
the pores of the skin. Sacred Stone has
designed a non-bacterial steam tent to
fit over a massage table, except for the
client’s head, which is a site of pitta
and should not be overheated. The skin
is exfoliated with silk gloves,
purifying ayurvedic essential oils are
applied to the lymph and the client
steams in savasana (stillness) for 15
minutes. It aims at relieving stiffness,
coldness and heaviness in the body. As a
result of perspiring, the Agni (fire)
within the body is increased and fatty
tissue and toxins are mobilized.
