Hot stone massage is a specialty type of therapeutic massage that uses smooth, heated Basalt stones. The stones are used by the therapist to massage certain areas of the body, and also are placed at key points on the body. Hot stone massage is physically deep and a deeply relaxing type of treatment. It increases blood flow to the area where the heat has been applied, decreases tension in the muscles, and fascia, and increases extensibility of collagen tissue. Deep tissue manipulation can be achieved with use of the stones. It is less painful for the client, as the heat relaxes the tissues so the stones can move to deeper layers of muscles more quickly than regular massage. Ultimately hot stone massage leaves the client feeling extremely relaxed, grounded, brought back into balance, and centered. Conditions Hot Stone Massage is good for:
