Hot Stone Massage

Hot Stone Massage Therapy combines the benefits of hydrotherapy and thermotherapy (the use of heat applications) with the strokes of massage using stones to create a deep, relaxing and healing treatment. The heat of the massage stones warms the skin, which allows for the absorption of moisturizing and therapeutic oils, while simultaneously preparing musculature of the body so the massage therapist can work into the deeper muscle layers.
