Hot Stone Therapy is the skillful art of bodywork that uses heated, smooth, flat stones of various sizes, shapes, and weights. You are massaged from head to toe with hot stones! Additionally, the preheated stones are placed at key points on the body to stimulate the circulation. The stones are also used to warm, soften, and relax tight, aching muscles, while promoting an extraordinary feeling of relaxation and contentment. Often, smooth volcanic Basalt rocks are used because of their high iron content and ability to retain heat.

While the hot stones soften your muscles and help release toxins, your trained therapist will usually apply a Swedish-style relaxation massage to other areas of your body. Select warm, smooth stones are often used by your therapist as a massage tool with essential oils as well.

Your therapist will choose the number, size, weight, and quantity of warmed stones that will be used in your treatment. Sometimes the healing properties of heat are also used with small heated stones between your toes or in other areas of your body that can benefit. In some instances, your therapist may use cold stones alongside hot ones to help heal muscular injuries and inflammation.

Several specific therapeutic benefits are attributed to the skillful application and usage of hot stones. Health conditions such as deep muscular aches and pains, stress, circulatory problems, arthritis, fibromyalgia, sleep problems, and others, can benefit wondrously from skilfully applied Hot Stone Therapy.
