HOT STONE MASSAGE

Hot stone massage is a treatment that utilises special heated placement stones that are situated in relation to the body’s energy centres and working stones that are used by the therapist to provide a full body massage or full back massage to transfer heat to the muscles, relieving tension, increasing blood flow, and promoting relaxation.

Hot stone therapy causes vasodilation, which is where the vessels widen and creates oxygen and nutrients. All of which means muscle relaxation, increase in circulation, increased metabolism, and lymph function.

Hot stone back massage is incredibly relaxing as it is claimed that the energies of basalt and sedimentary stones are known generators of energy, promoting a harmonising and cleansing effect which means a soothing, meditative state of quietude, calm, and balance.
