Kniha velice názorně, krok za krokem i pomocí stovek fotografií a kreseb, popisuje základní techniky masáží horkými kameny. Ty jsou velmi účinné, jednoduché na pochopení, a dokonce mohou být prováděny bez hlubších znalostí východní medicíny jako celku. Fyzioterapeuti jistě ocení, že masáže horkými kameny vyžadují méně fyzické námahy nežli masáže jiné. Kniha klade důraz i na správné provádění technik vč. držení těla maséra, což napomáhá zachování jeho vlastního zdraví a práceschopnosti.
