Heated Bamboo | Integrity ED

Heated Bamboo Massage

Take the stress off your hands and learn to leverage heated tools for deep treatment work.

A heated bamboo massage can be a great "spa" modality, but it can also assist therapists in delivering great treatment work and deep tissue massage. Because the bamboo tools are heated, they easily sink into the tissues without resistance. They are ergonomic for the therapist to grasp and leverage, so you can deliver a deeper massage with less effort.

Check with YOUR state licensure whether bamboo massage is accepted for CEUs in your state.

How do heated bamboo tools compare to hot stones? What's the difference?

Using heated bamboo tools is similar to hot stone massage in that you can use them to warm up the tissues in preparation for deeper work. Unlike hot stones, the bamboo tools are easy to hold when you are doing deeper treatment work in an area. You don't have to grip them tightly at all. And you can use them like a lever to get even deeper with less effort (it's physics!). The broad surface area of the bamboo tools feels amazing to clients (like your forearm) and the heat helps it to sink into tight muscles. And there's no water clean-up like with hot stones!

I took both the hot stone and hot bamboo classes. Chantelle is awesome. She is very down to earth in her teachings and very practical. I can use both of these in my practice to help save especially my thumbs! Would recommend these courses

It was a great workshop! Those warm bamboo sticks are so soothing and not at all hard to use, muscles seem to melt as you go along the body. I hope I get as good using them as Chantelle taught us. She has a very relaxing and encouraging teaching method, and I enjoyed her humor! I would happily take another class from her again.

I took your hot bamboo class in Omaha. The class was very well taught but also relaxed. Which made for a great day of learning, my clients have been raving over this new add on !!!

Abby Gregersen

So - I put this to the test in one of Chantelle's latest classes. Based on my client investigation I would say that it is a 75/25 split for people that liked hot bamboo compared to hot stone with a strong lean toward bamboo.

Combine the above with the superb style that Chantelle has in her teaching and this is one course you do not want to miss if you are serious about taking your massage therapy practice to the next level in the eyes of your client base.

Thanks, Chantelle for being top of the line in what you teach as well as how you teach it.

The heated bamboo class was very well put together, instructor was knowledgeable, informative, and personable! The class time went fast and I felt confident leaving that I was going to be able to integrate this into my massage routine!
