Hot Stone Massage

Hot stones placed on back for massage treatment
The Hot Stone Massage is a different type of technique used to help ease muscle stress and promote healing. Instead of using their hands, your in-home therapist will utilize the benefits of hot stones at specific points of your body. The stones provide a continuous warming heat to relax and soothe the muscles.

The stones are flat and smooth to ensure comfort for the person receiving the treatment. They are often made of basalt, which is rich in iron. This allows them to retain heat for long periods of time. The stones help to relax muscles to allow deeper penetration by the masseuse or masseur.  This helps to focus attention on the underlying muscles that are often missed during traditional massages.

Hot Stone Massage Techniques
​

The stones are often heated in a warm water bath. This ensures they are heated thoroughly to ensure the right heat retention to last throughout the treatment, but not too hot to ensure comfort and safety. The hot stones are sometimes coated in massage oil before placement. The therapeutist may also apply this lotion to the area of the body to allow the stones to slide easily to their proper positions.

There are specific points of the body where the stones are placed to provide the most benefit. They can be placed along the spine to provide heat to the muscles that attach to this bone. Some stones can also be placed on the face or chest or even on hands or legs. Each spot is used to provide the best benefits to each area of the body that is being focused on.
​
After the stone is left on the area for several minutes, the muscles will begin to relax. The therapist may use the stone to apply pressure and massage the area. The therapist may also remove the stones and massage the area with their hands to get into the deep tissues.

Benefits of Hot Stone Massage 
​

Hot stones are the perfect option for relaxing tense muscles and can also help to relieve pain and stiffness. The warming heat and pressure can also help improve circulation. The heat of the stones can penetrate deep in the skin to promote blood flow and release toxins trapped in the tissue.

Hot stones are also a great treatment option for easing the pain of some conditions, such as arthritis and autoimmune disorders. Using the stones is also a great way to relieve tension for those that are sensitive to traditional massage therapies.
​
The Hot Stone Massage is also the perfect method for easing severely tense muscles to allow the masseuse or masseur the ability to reach underlying muscles and injuries. By relaxing the top muscles, those with chronic pain or muscle injuries can find better relief when the therapist works on the difficult to reach muscles under the surface.
