Hot Stone Massage - Medical Massage

[SnooblerRubbleBoots]

I want to snort cocaine and give this massage to a manatee.

[mgaft1]

@SnooblerRubbleBoots

Medical Massage protocols are designed primarily for people. However, mammals also respond well to massage. In Switzerland massage given to cows increased their milk production almost twice. I hope your manatee would be very thankful.

can i use hot stone to massage hypertensive clients?tnx

[mgaft1]

@sentosaheaven I personally wouldn't incorporate hot stones on patients with high blood pressure. The best is to start hands-on from toes and then to work on lower extremities est. would recommend to read my article on subject. Can be found on my website in the button of the screen.

Best wishes.

[John40ish]

Boris, I watch your videos a lot and even do some of your techniques on some of my friends just cause I enjoy massaging and making people feel good, but the yellow Bracelet on your wrist means what? John

[ichbingott4510]

I'm really amazed by this man. I've never known someone that takes their careers so seriously.

Boris went to school for this in Isreal and even Ukraine, where i'm assuming he's from.

This man has studied and worked his whole life to make ours more pleasant. That truely makes him a hero in my opinion.

[hzebian]

Hi Boris: I am about to take my finals to become a massage therapist and found your videos, which are wonderful. Can you share any tips for a new massage therapist as I feel like I am needing some help in massaging back/shoulder areas... can you share any resources with me that may help? I appreciate any feedback you can give :)

[sandrajoystone]

Boris-I think you are great! Your knowledge is extensive, and thanks for sharing. All therapists can improve their techniques by learning from you.

[mgaft1]

Dear sandrajoystone

is a huge deal of pleasure and support to receive comment like yours. Thank you very much. During 37 years of clinical/academical experience I have acquired some body of knowledge in medical and sports massage. This occupation is a passion of my life and as any human being I am trying to leave some legacy by sharing my knowledge. In live seminars I am reaching hundreds of people but by instructional DVDs thousands. God willing I will leave some legacy.

Best wishes.

Boris

[stacy1981]

I deleted my comment. I don't like to put bad karma out there. I'm not discounting Medical Massage and the addition of hot stone. It's just the basic difference of Medical massage and Therapeutic Massage is such that you have to convert most spa goers to it. Like I said, it's just different not a bad thing. I shouldn't have said disappointing. I knew that was the wrong word to use with you. I won't comment anymore.

[mgaft1]

Dear stacy1981 I can feel that your intentions was good therefore you shouldn't be worry about bad karma. both general public as well professionals possibly can learn from our discussion. Example your last comment is a good topic to discuss. In my opinion medical or therapeutic massage stands for the same: providing therapy by means of massage. I am against compromise on feels good only.

Your last comment means a lot to me. Thank you.

Yours.

Boris

[mgaft1]

Dear stacy1981

The concept of medical massage was proposed by Prof. Sherback and did not include hot stones protocols.evidently incorporation of stones into the original protocols of medical massage offering additional healing stimulations. Medical massage is about results such as less pain, more range of motion, elimination of anxieties, headaches est. Being an a mineral stone incorporation contributing to this results therefore do not disappointing clients. Will continue in next post.

[mgaft1]

stacy1981 My feeling you are young practitioner therefore my advice not to rush to conclusions but to try to figure out details such as a) this short video fragment is from more than two hours DVD b) to listen careful togeneral message about mechanism of massage/ physiological effect of massage in general and benefits of incorporating hot stone in to protocol.

By the way 19 years ago I was the first one who introduced American practitioners to the term medical massage.

Best wishes.

[serbmafioso3]

man that dude is stoned hahah

[abbyxxoo]

No, his first language isn't English if you're talking about the guy massaging the person. Lol.

[rageagaintstheNWO]

no he dosn't, check your eyes

[humanplatypus16]

These videos are wonderful! I wish people wouldn't spam their comments up with silliness so often. =(

[enlightenmentforever]

To be able to understand hot stone massage you have to know how to do oil massage.

he is demonstating wonderfully:)

[Suckfest83]

Having not read any of the other comments below, let me just ask the question: how did we get to a discussion on the invention and implementation of paragraphs in modern language when the video is about a guy getting a therapeutic massage?

I'm not judging, I'm just genuinely curious... Does anyone else wonder how we got so far off topic, or is it just me? It's a feeling I get a lot, lately.

[hatefullpain01]

lol the only reasons we dont need paragraphs and all that is because rappers destroyed them :p (nobody take me seriously unless u agree lol)

[moondog637]

That's interesting I've never seen a shirt the same colour of my skin before............

[Starderhorde]

XD Der Typ liegt auf seinen Händen^^

[MrXeroJoker]

what does wrightes mean?

[spamsponge]

As you know, paragraphs were an ancient practice within written communication where different sets of ideas were separated with blank space. Thanks to modern technology we can completely abandon outdated techniques like paragraphs as well as sentences, capitalization, punctuation and spelling. Although difficult to read, this development coincides with the increase in people having so little worthwhile to say. However, paragraphs are currently enjoying a "retro" resurgence in popularity.

[melandor0]

@69suckone

You wouldn't have used those 20 seconds for anything good anyways.

OOOH 2 month late retort burns!

[countryguysgal18]

i was just wondering.... you use to have videos for full body legs and full body arms but i cant seem to find them at all. i was just wondering if you got rid of them or if i'm just overlooking them. thanks!

[liamfrantic]

hi i have just watched your video as i get constant pain in my thighs and calves also in my neck i do a lot of thai boxing so obviously i take a bit of a beating what type of massage would you recommend for me as i have never had one?

thank you

[crazycommenterguy]

dear boris

i am a sixteen year old rugby player and play 5-6 times a week plus added gym sessions. would you think an occasional massage would be beneficial even at my age?

thanks

[Boghman22]

No, you are faaaaaaaar too young to benefit from massages...

[crazycommenterguy]

wasnt asking u was i

[chimonkey123]

Massage is for everyone! I say go ahead and do it.

[Biglove131]

Out of curiosity how often would you recommend getting a massage? Because i'm in the Air Force, and I am constantly physically training, so i just didnt know if there was a such thing as too much massage or to little.

[mgaft1]

Dear Biglove131.

1st would like to thank you for protecting us. if you constantly in physical training I would recommend at least once or better twice a week to receive massage for over training rehabilitation. my 7 self management and prevention of sports related injuries DVDs could be helpful for this matter. if you'll be interesting to purchase this DVDs please e-mail us and I will request from management special discounts for you.

Best wishes.

Boris

[AlanRAtchison]

Dear Boris,

This is a great and informative video on hot stone massage. I have enjoyed learning from all of your videos. I noticed recently that a few of your videos have been removed from youtube. Will these be put back up? Namely, I was disappointed that the plantar faciitis video was removed as I have had problems in that area and your video was extremely helpful for me, not to mention extremely relaxing to view. Was this just a temporary removal, I hope?

Best,

Alan

[mgaft1]

Dear Alan. I'm glad that you like my works. I will check up load possibilities with technical support person. in any case impossible to upload all my DVDs but short fragments. Best wishes.

Boris

[RileyRoulette]

[mmalta5]

[mgaft1]

Thank you very much for thumbs up. it is a great deal of pleasure to know that people appreciate your work.

Best wishes.

Boris

[45molkstreet]

quick question, when the hot stones are on the back are they very hot?

[mgaft1]

Dear 45molkstreet,

When hot stones applied as static application the temperature should be comfortable and in no case should burn the skin. When hot stones are applied dynamically the temperature should be adjusted in the same way as at a time of static application.

Best Wishes,

Boris

[rlacerda07]

Caro Boris, seu trabalho é excelente, PARABÉNS !!!

[Bradal4ck]

[alpineswissmiss]

You can get kits for around 25 USD online or at bookstores like Barnes and Noble and a crcokpot at WalMart for about 15. You do not need spa-level basalt rocks.

[Nintendoheld65]

[unganster44]

i know this is completely weird to ask but if i choose not to see a therapist, what are some things that i can do to massage myself?

And, how old do you have to be to get a therapist to massage me? Thank you.

[mgaft1]

Dear unganster44 ,

Actually, there isn't anything weird about your question and since recently you can do quite a bit about massaging yourself. That's because Boris self massage DVDs are now available for general public. Please see the clips on sports injuries self treatment in this channel or carefully read annotations in this video.

Regards,

mgaft

[morefish12]

is there a certain stone you should you use?

or will any smooth stone be good enough?

[mgaft1]

Dear morefish12.

No doubt that different kinds of stones carry different energy potential. I'm pretty certain that for purposes of stimulation by hot stones massage  river stones as well others kinds are good enough. I mean all of them minerals and carry potential to release long waves of heat. Best wishes.

Boris

[beautiflykaotic]

I am a Massage Therapist and I really enjoy working with hot stones. The darker the stone the longer it will keep the heat. My stones have all come from the ocean, however you can usually find stones on ebay or somewhere on the internet. I work mostly with lotions more than oils, because I specialize in deep tissue. However for Stone therapy I find that using Grapseed oil, or any oil in particular helps glide the stone easier than lotions or gels.

[KukoTheCure]

Im massage therapist and I consider my self a good therapist :-) but hot stones its not my thing, I just cant keep the stones at right temperature ... my question is when you massage you use one stone then you replace it with another if gets cold before you done? And do you place the stones at same time while you done massaging and how long you keep them on? When i do full body massage stones i place on the back they get cold before im done with the legs.

[mgaft1]

Dear KukoTheCure.

Just not to repeat myself I'll refer you to my Kuginame reply. to keep stones constantly hot you just can added boiling water or you can purchase hydracollider . in my opinion you shouldn't be concern that stones on back getting cold before you done with legs. they not so cold and still active minerals . in any case to use stones like static hot application only is not effective enough. you have to incorporate hot stone in soft tissue mobilization. Best wishes

Boris

[Kuginame]

Is there an easy house hold way to heat the stones? and what temp. should they be?

Thank you

[mgaft1]

Dear Kuginame. you can heat the stones in any container using boiling water. usually 5 to 7 minutes enough for stones to generate heat. use a spoon to take stones out of container. careful touch with your hand. if temperature are tolerant you will perform stone massage. if stone will be to hot, for 1 minute or less hold it under cold water. on DVD# 11 during 2 hours I explaine and demonstrate how to perform stone massage as well how to prepare stones for massage.

Best wishes.Boris

[crizzo06]

would baby oil work ?

[mgaft1]

Dear crizzo06. I think you can use baby oil but not to use any oils for lubrication in cases of pre physical activities( playing sports, to perform some physical  work ets) and of course in cases of allergy reaction. Best wishes Boris

[Freeland28]

i have learned alot from these videos! thanks

[avaloni9]

I am currently training in Holistic Therapies and want to add Hotstone Therapy to my list. I found the vid very useful for tips. Great stuff

[mgaft1]

Dear avaloni9. good luck with Holistic studies. you welcome to visit my website where you'll find a lot of my articles related to holistic approach. Best wishes. Boris

[avaloni9]

Thanks will do

[JD1985]

This client being massaged is so lucky! He's in nearly all the videos.

[ficklemcpickle]

Hello Boris,

I have a bit of a hairy back, would that make it hard for me to get a massage?

Thank you

[barbedwirebat111]

no, itd just mean they'd use more massage oil.

[mgaft1]

Dear ficklemcpickel.

You shouldn't worry to received massage therapy. as barbedwirebat111 kindly stated: in case of hairy back we using bigger amount of lubricants. Best regards. Boris

[rosswoof]

alternatively you might try a Bodywork Therapy like shiatsu which can be applied through light clothing.

My website will be up and running soon and I hope to put some videos on here in the near future.

[carolcollom]

As a massage therapist, I keep various oils and lotions and creams on hand. They have different viscosities, which are used for a variety of reasons...deep tissue, people who have hairy areas. The heavier the viscosity, it helps to massage for a hairier person. Also, there are allergies to consider and so I always ask each client if they have any allergies to fruits, nuts, oils, essential oils, scents, etc. I would normally use light olive oil for a client with body hair or deep tissue cream.

[qimingwu]

[SoCalMassage]

The use of hot stones gives an intensely deep massage.

[TheRealSiriku]

It's his second language. Give the guy a break, yeah?

[Phaedraphile]

I understood "that will cause the membrane of the neuron to depolarise". Do you understand that statement? Now who's stupid?

[PinchePeruana]

Gee I didn't know hot stones had to do with neuroscience. Now who's the stupid one?

[mgaft1]

Not knowing a fact has nothing to do with stupidity. On the other hand, we're happy you've learned something new.

M.Gaft

[MysteryxShadow]

omg i want a massage so bad now...

[DTakersgurl]

I was considering having a hot stone massage. And now i've made up my mind. Thanks. Soon as I get Paid again I will.

I'm in training to become a professional wrestler and my trainer also says that this will help loosen my muscles.

thanks for posting this.

[TheRealSiriku]

I've always had a passing interest in massage, so I decided to watch some massage videos to give me a slight insight into it. You're the best i've seen on Youtube after watching dozens of massage videos.

Not only are the videos relaxing (you have a relaxing voice suited to this line or work) but i've attempted a few things i've seen on here on myself, and they really do seem to work. I've learnt something that benefits me, so thank you very much for that =)

[mamassage]

Thank you.

I enjoyed this video. I have not previously used stones as I viewed them as too gimmicky. Now I may incorporate them.

[mgaft1]

Dear mamassage.

I am very happy that my video clips somehow contributed to your decision. I hope that it would be helpful to many others as well. A picture is worth a thousand words.

Best regards.

Boris

[videlczyk]

mmmm, what a relax...

[mtfans]

I love how good this massage feels

[troybecom]

The more I view this video the more it relaxes me. I even sleep better. No kidding.  Thank you.
