What is Hot Stone Massage?

Hot Stone Massage has to be one of the most enjoyable and relaxing therapeutic massages available, designed to work on muscle tension at the deepest level.

Smooth lava stones are heated to a comfortably warm temperature in a special stone heater before being used to massage the body. The heat is deeply relaxing and helps warm up tight muscles so the therapist can work more deeply, more quickly.

The heat of the stones penetrates deep into the muscle tissue allowing the muscles to relax 4-5 times quicker than in a standard body massage, easing muscle tension and revitalising the muscle tissue by increasing blood circulation.

Many recipients of hot stone massage find themselves in a state deep relaxation. The massage aims to work on many levels; stimulating yet calming the body’s systems.
