Hot Stones Massage Therapy
This holistic therapeutic technique uses smooth, heated basalt stones, which are volcanic rocks, placed on various parts of the body to deeply penetrate muscles and skin, inducing relaxation and easing tension. The heated stones are also used to massage the muscles, enhancing the massage's effectiveness and intensity. Traditional massages rely solely on manual manipulation by the therapist’s hands, studies have shown that hot stones can be up to ten times more effective than just hands. This is because the heat of the stones allows for far deeper penetration of the muscles, softening adhesions and help reduce fibrous nodules.
Beyond just relaxation, there are also all sorts of benefits that are associated with hot stone massages:
​
