Hot Stone Therapy
A stone massage is a massage that uses smooth, flat and heated rocks placed at key points on the body.
Hot stone massage therapy melts away tension, eases muscle stiffness and increases circulation and metabolism.
Hot Stone therapy is technically termed as Geothermotherapy, that is the use of heated stones and chilled stones to affect a chemical release within the human body. The placing of the stones is often followed by a holistic massage, which results in a deeper and more intense treatment.
Stones usually made of Basalt are placed into an electric slow cooker which is filled with water , although you can now purchase Carry Bags that warm the stones which make it very convenient for the mobile therapist.
