This shape is ideal for massage and wellness applications. The smaller and more elongated Small Palmstones are very good for stone rests to cover a smaller area of the body. This shape is also particularly suitable for massages on the face and feet.
The self-contained shape of the oval gives a feeling of peace and harmony in a special way.

Hypersthene got its name from the Greek "hyper" (over) and "stheos" (strength); this refers to the greater hardness compared to the closely related Bronzite. Spellings like hyperstene or hyperstehne are therefore not correct.
In 1988, Hypersthene was renamed Ferrosilite by the International Mineralogical Association. Synonyms for Hypersthene are Augite Bronzite, Iron Anthophyllite, Iron Enstatite, Ferroanthophyllite, Ficinite, Labrador Blende, Paulite, Schillerspat and Szaboite as well as Hyperstein.
Hello! My name is Marco Schreier. I founded my business in 1981 and ran it first alongside school and later alongside studying mineralogy.
Known throughout the industry as the specialist wholesaler Marco Schreier Mineralienhandlung GmbH, my team and I have developed ever new fields of use for precious stones, water stones, therapy stones and stones for various purposes such as healing treatments, massages and wellness concepts. In order to make our strict purity criteria for therapy stones clear, we founded the Lapis Vitalis ® brand in the year 2005.
Accompanied by my friend and author of numerous stone healing books Michael Gienger and with the well-known author Monika Grundmann from Edelstein Balance ®, we have developed a comprehensive range of stones for use in spas, wellness studios, meditation, yoga and for spiritually and therapeutically working professionals.
