Is stone massage good for Children?

When considering children for massage, it is very important that you speak to the massage therapist and inquire about their experience with children and the style of stone massage they are practicing. It is strongly recommended that if the child is 15 years-old or younger that a parent or guardian accompany them and sit in on the session. Another thing to consider is that hot stone massage falls under thermotherapy, and that is generally not indicated for children.

Most experts agree that the immune system of people with Crohn's disease reacts abnormally - it treats good bacteria, foods, and other substances that are good for us as foreign and unwanted substances.
