2 Sea water, hot and cold stones, a story that makes Sense The sea is a place where all organisms can return to their original source and draw upon all the elements that terrestrial life has caused them to lose Professor Leroy. Throughout the ages, sea water, algae, salts and other marine extracts have been recommended time and time again for their numerous properties. Marine active ingredients are used for their regenerating actions as well as for their soothing and warming effects. However, it wasn't until the XIXth century, and after many long years of research that professor René Quinton wrote, Our bodies have the same mineral make-up as sea water. He referred to elements such as amniotic liquid and cellular water, both of which are linked to the origins of life. In our bodies, minerals, a source of equilibrium, are everywhere; in our cells, as well as in our blood. Of all nature's kingdoms (mineral, plant, animal and human) the mineral kingdom is the slowest on a vibratory level. Minerals are linked to stability; they endure throughout the years, move the least and provide deep relaxation. The stones themselves are made up of minerals, have their origins in different environments. Some come from the depths of the sea where they are polished by the constant motion of the waves, forming smooth, rounded pebbles, cold to the touch. Others come from the depths of the earth and enter the sea in long, powerful volcanic lava flows. The marine flux causes this incandescent basaltic rock to break up and in the course of time they too become rounded and smooth. This THALGO duality has been used to create mer & sens Face or Body. These treatments have been conceived around minerals and their encounter with the marine universe and its precious treasures.

3 A unique combination of hot Volcanic Stones & cold Marine Stones Marine stones Marine stones are sedimentary rocks which are made up of marine mineral elements. They retain the cold. They are gathered on the seashore and used for their invigorating effects. They are cooled in cold water or ice and are never used with prolonged application. Volcanic stones Basalt is a rock that originates from volcanic eruption and has the capacity to retain heat for much longer than other stones. Basalt stones are very dense and smooth because they have been eroded by water. Their natural color varies from grey to black and some are a more greenish color due to their rich olivine content. When in contact with massage oil the stones become black. For hundreds of years, basalt stones have been used in massage for their decongesting effects on muscular and nervous tension, and for their ability to eliminate toxins. They are used with prolonged application either to decongest an area or a specific point, or as a massage tool. This original method was used by the Chinese, Tibetans and especially the Amerindian shamans. In Hawaii, volcanic stones are used in therapeutic and soothsaying rituals. An original and effective massage The volcanic basalt stones are heated and the sedimentary marine stones, cooled. Both types of stones play an important role in the treatments, not only are they placed on precise points but they are used in the massage itself. Before positioning each stone, a concentric spiral is performed with the stone finishing at a central point where it placed. The spiral is performed with a slow effleurage movement, exerting medium pressure. This technique creates a concentration of energy and is an effective way of starting the relaxation process. The method shows you how to position and skilfully handle the stones in order to loosen and relax key tension areas and thus successfully release accumulated stress. «The mer & sens Method induces deep relaxation and invites sleep» The movements, rhythm and power of the stones bring about this unique and total relaxation. The movements are slow, rounded, spirally and wavelike. This allows the therapist to calm the person and send them into a light, floating, hypnotic trance. Alternating Hot & Cold Stones The Mer et Sens Method uses a warm, decongesting action followed by a cold astringent action with the aim of stimulating exchanges, increasing tissue oxygenation and heightening the sensorial effects of the treatment. The penetration of heat is important to provide genuine relaxation but is imperative that you take a certain number of precautions during the treatment. We recommend that, once a week, you put the stones in a natural and original environment. For this, take the stones and put them into a container with water and Marine Algae or Thalassobath Sea Salts.

4 Two invitations to deep relaxation mer & sens body More than just a new massage method, mer & sens body is a complete purifying, remineralizing and relaxing treatment. The exfoliating and sculpting techniques re carried out with volcanic and marine stones for a completely rounded approach using spiral movements. A true invitation to deep sleep, mer & sens is recommended for extremely strained clients. This sculpting massage evokes a floating sensation, allowing the client to let her/himself go almost immediately. This dual method makes it possible to separate the two parts of the treatment and offer either a hot stone exfoliation on its own, or a hot stone massage. Steps Procedure mer & sens face A real moment of relaxation, mer & sens face is the first introduction to relaxation for those who are still reluctant to try body treatments. Remineralizing and relaxing, this facial treatment meets a new beauty need. The mer & sens facial massage at the base of this treatment is based on very regressive and slow circular movements.
