What is Hot Stone Therapy?



Hot stone massage involves the application of water-heated basalt stones of varying sizes to key points on the body, resulting in a  dynamic, powerful, warming and deeply nurturing treatment.
The basalt stones used are a form of black volcanic rock that absorbs and retains heat well which enables a deeply soothing, relaxing form of massage.
The direct heat relaxes muscles, allowing manipulation of a greater intensity than with regular massage. 

The client can request light, medium or deep pressure depending on preference.
