Hot stone massage therapy melts away tension, eases muscle stiffness and increases circulation and metabolism. Hot stone massage promotes deep muscle relaxation through the placement of smooth, water-heated stones at key points on the body incorporating a customized massage with the use of hot stones enhancing the benefits.

The premise behind hot stone massage is that the direct heat of the stones relaxes muscles, allowing the therapist access to their deeper muscle layers. Combining hot stone protocols with a full body massage provides a very healing and effective experience. The hot stones also expand blood vessels, which encourages blood flow throughout the body. The hot stones have a sedative effect that can relieve chronic pain, reduce stress and promote deep relaxation.
