Hot Stone Therapy Massage

Posted under General - Aug 29th, 08

Hot Stone Therapy is a full massage for the body that is relaxing and can relax, calm and energise you while keeping all the stress and anxieties on the outside world as you float into a blissful state.

A trained holistic practitioner will place the hot basalt stones on the body to allow the iron and magnesium to release the heat in a slow manner that increases a person’s circulation thus allowing the body to receive the nutrients that it needs quickly.

The treatment or massage usually lasts for one hour which for the person on the massage table the time seems to pass very quickly, and is beneficial in the detoxifying of the kidneys and organs enabling them to function more efficiently bringing pain and stress relief as the stones expand the body’s blood vessels which is as effective as a light sedative.

If you have a muscle injury and you are in need of a cooling therapy the stones will
be cooled and placed on the body by the practitioner or massage therapist to massage the body by constricting the blood vessels while still removing toxins and bring pain relief.

You can have a hot stone massage and also have the cool stone massage which will be beneficial to the physical body, a bit like taking your car for a full service including an oil change.
