What is Hot / Cold Stones Massage?
Hot Stones Massage is becoming very popular in the UK. This technique uses heated Basalt Lava stones that warm the client’s muscles, allowing a much deeper working of the tissues than a conventional massage. The heat from the warm Basalt stones penetrate deeply to help loosen and sooth tightened, congested muscles.
Your Hot Stones Massage at Greenhouse Therapies
Specific stones are chosen to correspond to specific parts of the body.
Oil is smoothed onto the client and the stone is then worked along the skin in place of the therapist’s hands.
During the massage, the therapist first warms up the body with traditional Swedish massage, and then applies massage using a heated stone.
As the stone cools, the therapist replaces it with another.
The therapist might also leave heated stones at specific points such as: along the spine, in the palms of the hands, on the stomach and between the toes to improve the flow of energy in your body.
How long is it?
Your session will last approximately 1½ hours.
