Hot Stone Massage
Hot stone massage is a massage that uses smooth, heated stones. The stones are a basalt, a black volcanic rock that absorbs and retains heat well. It is a deeply soothing and relaxing form of massage. The heat helps tight muscles release.
What to ExpectBefore you arrive, the massage therapist warms the stones in about 120 to 150 degree water.
The therapist uses Traditional Swedish Massage while holding the heated stones. As the stones cool, the therapist replaces them with another.
The heated stones may be left on specific points along your spine, or in the palms of your hand or between your toes to improve the flow of energy in your body.
Many stones are used of various shapes and sizes. The heat of the stones helps muscles release more quickly than in traditional massage.
Please let your therapist know if the stones are too warm.
