The use of gemstones on the reflex zones of the body has gained popularity in recent years and is becoming increasingly popular. The gemstone Stylus from our specialist retail range are purchased by professional users such as masseurs and physiotherapists, but numerous mail order companies for wellness articles, mineral stores and other outlets also offer the Stylus for private use. Hotels, day spas and fitness studios now also offer Reflexology with gemstones and rely on the certified therapy stone quality of Lapis Vitalis for their massage styli.
1. effect of massage with gemstones In addition to the purely physical effect of the combination of pressure and movement of the massage stylus, the selection of the right gemstone can significantly support the well-being of the customer or client. Each gemstone has its own unique vibrations and information; therefore the gemstone stylus should be chosen to suit the direction of the massage.
The massage stylus trio with the three semi-precious stones Rock Crystal, Aventurine (red) and red Jasper has proven itself as a basic set for reflexology work, as these three types of stone can be used to work on numerous issues: Rock Crystal is the neutral all-rounder for clarity and harmony, Aventurine promotes calming balance and red Jasper (red) activates for more power.
2 Suitable gemstones for Reflexology Gemstone applications on the reflex zones are a wonderful way to harmonize body and mind. They offer a natural method of supporting well-being. In principle, all gemstones are suitable as massage stylus for working on the reflex zones. However, it is important to consider the desired direction and purpose of the treatment: should it be an activating, harmonizing or relaxing application?
The Lapis Vitalis range includes a large number of tried and tested stone types for many topics. These have been used by numerous masseurs, physiotherapists and other practitioners for over twenty years. All gemstone Stylus in the Lapis Vitalis range are made from selected raw materials in therapy stone quality. In addition to the classic stones Amethyst, Rock Crystal and Rose Quartz, the most popular types of stone for massage stylus include green Aventurine (relaxing application) and black Tourmaline (Sagittarius). Rose Quartz has proven itself as a beginner's stone for amateurs with no prior knowledge of semi-precious stones and Reflexology.
3 Suitable body areas for reflexology treatments with stones The reflex zones on the foot are certainly the best known. Every organ of the body can be found on the feet and can therefore be positively influenced with a reflexology stylus on the foot reflex zones.
However, all other parts of the body, e.g. hands, ears and the tongue, also have reflex zone points and can therefore be used for applications with massage pens made of gemstones. For these Reflexology treatments, professional knowledge of the human body, such as that of alternative practitioners, masseurs and therapists, is an advantage. The reflex zones of the hands, which are easy to reach, are particularly important for use by amateurs in the private sphere.
Meridians and gemstones In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), meridians are important concepts that are understood as energy pathways in the human body. They are part of the energetic system that regulates the flow of Qi (life energy) through the body. According to the teachings of TCM, there are twelve main meridians, each of which is connected to specific organs and bodily functions. In addition to the main meridians, there are also secondary meridians that support the flow of energy.
The idea is that a harmonious flow of Qi is necessary to promote health and well-being. Blockages or imbalances in the energy flow can lead to complaints. With the help of suitable semi-precious stones and treatment methods, these blockages can be dissolved so that life energy can flow freely again.
Ewald Kliegel - founder of reflexology with gemstones Ewald Kliegel, a non-medical practitioner, is the developer of the gemstone stylus for massage. Mr. Kliegel ran his own practice in Stuttgart for many years. Healing and teaching with the help of the meridians is his vocation. He has been working with patients for 35 years, initially as a medical masseur, later as an alternative practitioner and lecturer at alternative practitioner schools. From this practice, he developed the massage stylus and wrote the classic book "Massage with Gemstone Styli", which has been translated into several languages.
He had already made a name for himself with a standardized symbolic language for 42 reflex zone systems, the description of their backgrounds and applications as "maps of health" on CD-ROM. His current research interest is in the organs and their mental and spiritual properties and functions. As the "father of the massage stylus", he has made this form of gemstone massage and the knowledge of meridians in the body an integral part of the services offered in many practices.
Difference between massage stylus and Wand In addition to tapered massage styluses, massage wands are also popular for applications with gemstones. These have a hexagonal cross-section and parallel edges. In contrast to massage wands for Reflexology, massage wands made of gemstones are mainly used for acupressure treatments. What both types of massage stone have in common is the wide range of applications and benefits from the head to the feet.
