Hot Stone Massage

Hot Stone massage has been practised in other parts of the world for over 2000 years, it now taking the UK by storm!

It is a wonderful deep massage technique, which is becoming increasingly popular due to its amazing beneficial effects. 

Special basalt volcanic stones are heated in a special heater. The stones are kept at a safe effective temperature, and this therapy works on three levels. During the treatment the client is engulfed in warmth and comfort, allowing the therapist to work deeper with no extra effort. The energies from the stones promote a meditative and calm state helping to relax the client. This also helps with the healing effects long after the treatment has ended. It is said that one stroke with a stone is worth ten strokes by a hand.
