Lava Shells

Each and every Lava Shell is a 100% real Tiger Striped Clam shell, hand-selected in the Philippine Islands for size, shape and structural integrity. The clams have been harvested by local islanders for hundreds of years to be used for food, but with no use for the shell, it was previously discarded. Now, PerfectSense Massage has taken those shells and recycled them into beautiful and effective massage tools.

The shells are composed of calcium carbonate, the same material found in our bones and teeth. The shell is polished and sanded, but its natural surface is white and ridged, with a rough, almost chalky texture. The color patterns present in the shell come from the nutrients the shell has absorbed throughout the clam's life. Each shell's pattern is as unique as a fingerprint.
