WHAT IS HOT STONE MASSAGE?
Hot Stone Therapy is a specialist massage that uses smooth, flat, heated basalt stones that are positioned along your spine, in the palms of your hands, along your legs and between the toes. The basalt stones are used for massage as they have a rich iron content that retains heat. Sometimes, cold stones are also used during a hot stone massage to help aid with detoxing and healing the body.
The origins of hot stone therapy can be traced back to over 2,000 years ago, when the Chinese used heated stones more than 2,000 years ago as a means of improving the function of internal organs.

HOW IT WORKS?
Your therapist will warm the stones 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 Swedish massage technique to prepare your muscles. Your therapist 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, your therapist will massage your neck, back, arms and legs, with and without the stones. You should always tell your therapist if the stones are too warm or the pressure is too intense.

BENEFITS OF HOT STONE MASSAGE:
Therapeutic and relaxing, this treatment alleviates stiffness and soreness while restoring energy and balance. The stones’ heat relaxes the muscles and has a calming effect on your emotions. Simultaneously, other stones are placed on your body’s energy points, deeply infusing muscles with heat to melt away tension.
The combination of hot and cold stones encourages your body to detox and heal through increasing your lymphatic flow and encouraging your body to remove waste products.
