Stone therapy meets lipossage to create a synergy effect
What makes HSG Stone Therapy stands out is at its effective before and after care programs for the pregnant. Located in Gyeongju City, its effective therapy methods have proved to strengthen the immunity, to shorten the labor pain and to prevent edema and overweight. Hwang majored in beauty care and worked at an orthopedics and a gynecology. “Increasing number of women reportedly gives their first birth to a child after 30. It means that they need a special before and after care since their physical strength is relatively weaker than in their 20s. HSG Stone Therapy was born to help them with professional before and after care systems” says CEO Hwang. The idea of the stone therapy comes from the under floor heating system of Korea; the far-infrared radiation released from the floor is known to be beneficial to our body and it was natural method of healing. “Stone therapy therefore delivers the heat to the deep in the body and it expands capillary vessels, increases number of white blood cells, strengthens immunity, and eases the cramped muscles” explains Hwang. It is a well-known fact that the pregnant experiences emotional and physical changes after giving birth. So, correcting the widened pelvis and joints, and balancing the autonomic nerves are very important in the physical side. “Stone therapy in this respect is closely related to preventing any possible strokes and depression that often visit many pregnant women.” Apart from the stone therapy, CEO Hwang also uses Lipossage (a compound word of lipo and massage), a body care program widely practiced in more than 40 countries. “The method uses the circulation of the lymph to dissolve cellulite and to draw a relocation of the myofascial system in a way to manage the body shape.” HSG Stone Therapy is the only place where you can receive this Lipossage and the stone therapy at the same time in Gyeongju City.
