What is Hot Stone Massage?
If you’re looking for a stress-busting treatment designed to relax and unwind you, there’s nothing better than a
hot stone massage!
Hot stone massage is becoming more and more popular due to its ability to soothe both mind and body. Its is an ancient practice dating back thousands of years, and involves the use of flat, heated stones (basalt stones) that we place on key
spots across your body. Depending of the massage option you choose, the smooth, flat, heated basalt stones are positioned along your spine, on your chest, in the palms of your hands, along your legs, on your stomach, on your face and between
the toes.
Using massage oil and a combination of strokes and techniques, we will massage your neck, back, arms and legs, with and without the stones leaving you feeling refreshed, relaxed and re-energized!
How does hot stone massage work?
The treatment uses a combination of gentle oils and natural stones in a bid to ease muscle tension, improve circulation and promote well-being. The stones are warmed in water until they are within the precise temperature range of between
120 and 130 degrees Fahrenheit.
A hot stone massage may begin with a traditional massage technique to prepare your muscles. We will then place the warm stones on key acupressure points on your body. The stones warm and relax your muscles, allowing deeper pressure to be applied during your massage. Using massage oil and a combination of strokes and techniques, we will massage your neck, back, arms and legs, with and without the stones.
Everyone is different though so make sure you tell us if the stones are toowarm or the pressure is too intense. We can
always adjust!
