Hot Stones Therapy
Hot Stones therapy is an intensive deep and effective treatment. It combines the benefits of hydrotherapy (water therapy) and thermotherapy (heat therapy) along with massage strokes providing a deeply relaxing and healing treatment.
The treatment uses a combination of relaxing water heated smooth basalt stones and the refreshing coolness of chilled or frozen marble stones to encourage the body to heal on many levels.
Stones are placed on chakra points aiding the balancing of the bodies energy flow. Stones are also used in the hands and are incorportated into the massage strokes.
The effectiveness of the treatment is in part due to the psycological effects of the heat on the body, calming the mind, by providing direct warmth and comfort that induces a deep state of relaxation. The effects of heat on deep tissue melts away muscle aches and deeply held tensions. Essential oils are used with the hot stones increasing the feeling of wellbeing.
Cold marble stones are often alternating with the hot basalt stones causing the blood vessels to contract, stimulating the nervous system and increasing the flow of waste materials throughout the body.
The treatment will relax you deeply, boost your circulation, releive any held tension and recharge your energy levels. You will come away feeling extremely pampered and nurtured.
