What Are Basalt Crystals?
Basalt is the result of undersea volcanic eruptions; and is the rock that heals or patches “the wound” where the earth crust on the ocean floor is separating. The main element of basalt is silica and oxygen as well as iron and magnesium. This adds to its healing nature when applied to the skin. These components also make the scrub remarkably rinse-able so when mixed with oils there is little residue and is not greasy.
Basalt stones themselves are not new to the spa industry. Hot Basalt Stone Therapy is a popular treatment used for physical ailments and is offered by therapists in spas all over the world. The treatment is the placing of varying sized warmed stones on to key points of the body to relax the muscles. The therapeutic effect of basalt stones can help with muscle aches and pains, poor circulation, rheumatic and arthritic conditions, fybromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, back pain, stress, anxiety and tension, insomnia and depression.
Using our exclusive formulation of basalt crystals (the residue from crushing basalt stones) as an exfoliant results in much of the same healing effects as hot stone therapy.
