Hot Stone Massage

Hot Stone Massage

Hot stone therapy is a massage that uses smooth, flat, heated stones positioned along your spine, in the palms of your hands, legs, and toes. Typically from river beds, basalt stones are used for massage as they have a rich iron content that retains heat.

The stones are warmed and then placed 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, your therapist will massage your neck, back, arms and legs, with and without the stones.

The combination of hot and cold stones encourages your body to detox and heal by increasing your lymphatic flow and encouraging your body to remove waste products.
