What is Hot & Cold Stone Massage Therapy

 

Hot stone massage combines the benefits of Hydrotherapy and 'Thermalism' or 'Thermotherapy' (the use of heat applications) with massage strokes, using stones to create a deep, relaxing and healing treatment. 

As the skin warms from the use of the heated stones this allows the skin to absorb moisturizing and therapeutic oils, while at the same time preparing the musculature of the body so the therapist can work into the deeper muscle layers.
