A hot stone massage is a deep massage in which heated smooth flat stones are laid on essential points on the body and are used to massage certain areas of the body. This massage uses soothing oils, warm basalt and sometimes cold marble stones to relax your muscles which provides extra relaxation that is beneficial in releasing tension, soothe an aching body and easing sore muscles.

Hot stone massage combines relaxing warmth and refreshing coolness to stimulate the body to detox and rejuvenate. This also boosts lymph flow and helps to clean out waste. Heat relaxes your body in a short period so that the therapist can focus on a deep working of the tissues using both hot stones and hand strokes. Hot stones also increase your sense of relaxation and calm which are coated in aromatic oil which is smoothed mildly onto your body, and each stone, in turn, is worked by the therapist’s hands.
