Using various sizes of basalt stones to reach the deeper layers of the fascia and muscle – a hot stone massage is the equivalent of 6 pairs of hands massaging the body at once. Relax and unwind, ease tired and sore muscles and warm up!
During a hot stone massage, your body is not only weighted down with hot, smooth stones, but the massage therapist also uses the stones to massage your body. It’s like being caressed by the smoothest (rollerball-like) hands, but also being (lightly) scorched by them.
A hot stone massage is most relaxing, but it can also be more invigorating than your standard massage, thanks to the almost-too-much heat keeping you in the moment instead of letting you drift off. The heat helps release the tension in your back and shoulders mostly, so those muscles can be worked on more effectively.
