Lava Shells™

For hundreds of years, South Pacific Islanders have harvested beautiful Tiger Striped Clams for food, and then thrown the shells away.  Now, PerfectSense® Professional has turned these discarded shells into the world’s most powerful heated massage tool.  When filled with the patented self-heating technology of Lava Gel®, Lava Shells® heat for up to an hour, giving you the same heat as a full hot stone massage with just two shells – no electricity of equipment needed.

The Lava Gel®  that powers the shells is available in four formulas:

  • Facial Blend – The mildest heat for sensitive areas such as the face.
  • Home Use Blend – Mild charge for sensitive areas.
  • Comfort Blend Medium Heat – Moderate heat for targeted work.
  • Comfort Blend High Heat – More powerful heat ideal for full body massage.

Natural Lava Shells®

With so many products that are far removed from nature, Lava Shells® allow you the opportunity to interact with something that is raw, individual, and natural.  Made with 100% real Tiger Striped Clam shells, each shell is hand-selected in the Philippine Islands for its unique size, shape, and structural integrity.  The shells are personally matched by size, sanded and polished to reveal their natural luster, then bonded together to form a beautiful implement for massage therapy.

Each delicate shell passes an intensive quality control process to ensure the preservation of its natural beauty and characteristics.  Being a product of nature, variations in color, thickness, and texture are to be expected.  Each shell’s pattern is as unique as a fingerprint, making it truly one-of-a-kind!

Natural Lava Shells® are composed of calcium carbonate, the same material found in our bones and teeth. When the shells are heated they produce calcium ions, which are transferred directly to the skin during the massage process. The calcium helps to regulate the skin’s natural renewal processes and can help to give a client firmer, healthier looking skin, while also reaping all the benefits of a heated massage treatment.

Porcelain Lava Shells®

The Porcelain Lava Shells® are handcrafted using high quality porcelain and crushed shells. Each shell is hand painted, replicating the beautiful luster and appearance of natural shells.  They have been cast from the ideal ergonomic natural shell and are more uniform in size and thickness.
