A Closer Look at Hot Stone Massage - Just one Method of the many available
Hot Stone massage combines volcanic basalt or marble stones with traditional massage movements, the warmth of the stones penetrates muscles and balances the nervous system; the process is said to create a deep sense of relaxation. Many ancient cultures have traditionally used healing massage stones due to their healing energy.
The therapist will use the stones on the body and some stones are placed on key energy points around the body, crystals may also be used and the stones are soaked in spicy, sensual aromas of the Orient. A Hot Stone Massage is very therapeutic and goes beyond the purely physical aspect of a typical massage and serves to invigorate and balance mind, body and sprit.
