Ramierez personally gathers stones from a nearby river and heats them in a slow cooker. The ones she placed on our shoulder blades loosened and pressed our knotted muscles like a hot iron. She held stones in her hands as she stroked our thighs and back, then wedged pebbles between our toes. But the best part came when Ramierez removed the rocks and focused her full strength on our formerly rock-hard back and shoulder muscles.
