Bamboo has a unique energy all of its own, one that has a
special magnetism; this plant emerges from the earth and grows straight and
tall, as if it wants to reach the heavens. From this plant and its energy, we
make our bamboo tools.
Hot Bamboo massage incorporates different lengths and diameters
of bamboo sticks. Warmed smooth bamboo, is integrated into a flowing Swedish
massage. It brings the warming, soothing effect of hot stone into massage
without all the extra time, mess, and prep work that stone therapy brings.
Bamboo holds the heat longer than stones do. The bamboo
sticks are wrapped in a heating pad to warm them. The bamboo is easily cleaned
and sanitized with antibacterial wipes.
An Extension of Hands
With the bamboo sticks as an extension of the hands the
therapist can easily find tension and dissolve knots and trigger points. They
are used to knead and stretch muscle and fascia in all directions. The massage
can go as light or as deep as necessary.
Massage lotion or oil is used with the bamboo. A twelve inch
bamboo stick is used for large areas to knead the muscles and also uses a
crisscross technique to stretch fascia. The shorter tools are used for small
areas and deeper work. The warmth brings relaxation in a shorter time as it
quickly penetrates to relax the muscles.
Lasting Effects
Bamboo massage is at the forefront of the massage industry,
becoming the new treatment at top spas and resorts around the country. Many
massage therapists are now offering bamboo massage, as I do in my local
business.
This wonderful technique promotes a deep sense of well-being
and delicious relaxation. Many clients report that the positive effects of the
bamboo tools seem even longer lasting than deep tissue massage without the
bamboo sticks.
