Hot Stone Massage
Hot stone massage gives a double therapeutic benefit; massage and heat therapy.
The natural volcanic stones are rich in minerals, they allow a deep
thermal exchange to take place in the body. Little tiny pores allow the
heat to penetrate more deeply into the tissue, releasing warmth into
tired, aching muscles, reviving them where needed most. Heat from the stones allows manipulation of a greater intensity than with massage alone. One stroke with a stone is equal to ten normal massage strokes. The Classic massage techniques used aim to promote relaxation by releasing muscle tension, to energize the body and improve overall health. During the treatment a carrier oil is used on its own or with an aromatherapy blend.
