My first stone therapy treatment was
in 1995, what an incredible experience. Bodywork treatments were new to me, so I
wasn't sure what to expect. The hot stones put me into a hypnotic state and that
night I had the best sleep of my life. My wife Tomi Wertheim was training with
Mary Nelson at the time to become her first understudy.
As the LaStone Therapy Company grew, the demand for Basalt stones grew putting
AML LaStone Source, the first official supplier for massage stones, behind.
It was time for the birthing of Stone People.
At the request of AML LaStone Source and the staff of LaStone Therapy, Inc. we
became stone providers in January 2000. Our days are filled with sorting,
harvesting and dancing with the stones as we labor to put together basalt stone
sets for all of you.
Thank you to all of the stone instructors, staff and current and future stone
therapists for making Desert Stone People the success it is today.
Happy Stoning!

Tomi Wertheim
Tomi Wertheim is a 1991 graduate of The Desert Institute of The Healing Arts in
Tucson , Arizona and is dual licensed by the state of Arizona in massage and
esthetics.
In the summer of 1995 Tomi received her first ‘hot stone’ massage. From the
first moment she felt the stones on her body and in her hands she knew she had
found her "Massage Path." Since that time Tomi has played a vital role in the
development of Stone Massage Curriculum not only with LaStone Therapy, but, with
many organizations wishing to brand ‘hot stone’ massage to their own unique
environments, including her own company, Massage On the Rocks, Inc.
Tomi’s many continuing education classes have expanded her knowledge and
understanding of the Body-Mind-Soul principles and has increased her awareness
of the many modalities that blend with the work of the stones.
Tomi continues to work with the stones in private practice. She is available for
consulting as to your stone needs. She, along with her husband John serve the
community of stone therapists by providing some of the world’s finest basalt
massage stones. Tomi brings her 12 years of hands-on experience to the massage
stone supply business, coupled with John’s brawn and passion for finding stones
they have created a little stone-haven here in Tucson , Arizona.
