Hot Stone Massage

Updated on May 26, 2008

This is a speciality massage that uses smooth heated stones (they are mainly Basalt, a black volcanic rock that absorbs and retains heat). The warmth of the stones deeply relaxes your entire body and helps to increase blood flow to the muscles and soft tissues. The therapist uses traditional sweeping strokes (effluerage) using the heated stones. As each stone cools the therapist replaces it with another, and so on. Hot stones will also be placed along the spine to stimulate energy points. This is also a great massage to have to help allieviate rheumatic joints, and is wonderfully relaxing and de-stressing.
