Hot Stone Massage
“Relax, Rejuvenate and Recuperate With My Wonderfully Soothing Hot Stone Massage!!”
“Hot Stone Massage at Pampering You is THE Ultimate In Massage Therapy. Once You Experience The Incredible Sensations That Can ONLY Be Attained With These Specially Harvested Lava Stones, You’ll NEVER Go Back To A Regular Massage”
Imagine yourself lying comfortably in a cosy room, dimly lit with candles and the soothing sound of soft music playing gently in the background. Visualise being cast adrift on a sea of luxurious warmth with all the cares and stresses of the day floating away.
As you lay, your mind still “buzzing” with the day’s events, you feel a heated, oiled stone glide effortlessly across your skin….another one follows…
Within moments your awareness becomes completely focussed on the warm heat of the Hot Stones as they penetrate softly, yet deeply into your tight knotted muscles…
The warmth of my hands massaging you gently, or is it yet another Hot Stone? You start to “let go” as the warm, silky smooth stones coax you deeper and deeper into a level of “blissful relaxation” you have never experienced before.
You take a long, deep breath and as you exhale you feel all your stresses just melt away…your mind becomes “Quiet” as you drift off into an almost meditative state…
Sound good? You had better believe it. Once you have received my Hot Stone Massage treatment you will wonder how you ever coped without it!!
“So What Is Hot Stone Therapy?”
Hot stone massage is a variation on classic massage therapy. I place heated smooth, flat stones on key points on the body - giving a deep massage and creating sensations of comfort and warmth. The penetrating heat from the hot stones relaxes the muscles whilst he hardness of the hot stones allow me to address specific problem areas with more detailed work or deeper pressure.
This combination creates deep relaxation when compared against regular massage therapy. The stones used in hot stone massage are usually basalt - a black volcanic rock that absorbs and retains heat extremely well with each hot stone hand-picked for size, shape and weight. Some hot stones are the size of the tip of your thumb (these are predominantly used between the fingers and toes), while other hot stones can be very large and are normally used on the sacrum or lower abdomen.
The heat from the hot stones relaxes muscles and increases blood flow to the area being worked on which further accelerates the healing process. This increase in circulation and the relaxation of the muscles also aids in mental relaxation which is key when attempting to work into deeper muscles of the body
“What Happens During My Hot Stone Massage?”
During your Hot Stone treatment you will lie on a comfortable couch - you will be covered by a thick towel that traces the spine. I then apply oil to the skin and glide the hot stones across the body’s meridian lines. Large hot stones are placed on the body, in the palms of the hands, and coin sized stones are lightly wedged between the toes and fingers.
The hot stones are heated using water and being a fully trained hot stone therapist I will closely monitor the heat level of the stones before placing them on the skin to avoid any possible discomfort.
The hot stones are used in two ways during your massage. One is to impart heat by laying the hot stones on specific points of your body - with a towel between you and the hot stones. These hot stones deliver concentrated centres of heat whilst I simultaneously massage you with oiled heated hot stones held in the palms of my hand using firm strokes along the muscles of the legs, arms and torso. I use traditional strokes of Swedish Massage while holding the heated Hot Stones.
As the Hot Stones cool I will replace them with another heated Hot Stone. An authentic hot stone massage is not simply the “gliding” of heated stones lightly upon the surface of the skin, but rather the hot stones are used as tools to deliver highly effective tissue and muscle massage at a pressure comfortable to you, the client. You can request light, medium or deep pressure, which is the beauty of the Hot Stone massage technique. The hardness of the hot stones makes for a fantastic deep tissue massage plus it is easy on my joints. So we both benefit!!
