Hot Stone Massage
Did you know we offer HOT STONE MASSAGES as part of remedial or relaxation massage? Hot stone massage is beneficial in many ways. The heat is retained in the special basalt stones, to give a lasting heated massage, which relaxes muscle pain and tension, reduces stress and anxiety, releases toxins to improve skin appearance, improves blood circulation and flow of energy, promotes better sleep, reduces and manages stress, may relieve symptoms of autoimmune disease, and relieves joint pain.
It has been found that the hot stones warm your muscles, increase circulation, which carries nutrients and oxygen more effectively making the body function better not to mention releasing knots quicker than a normal massage.
Hot Stone Massage also helps increase endorphins, enhancing the immune system, relieving pain, reducing stress and retarding the ageing process. Plus it increases lymphatic flow which boosts immunity and releases toxins and waste. All of this promotes better sleep, reduces anxiety and brings about improved energy.
It is possible to either have a full body hot stone relaxation massage or have the stones incorporated into a remedial massage.
Shar Bakken and Benjamin Osborn are both trained in this technique. Benjamin often incorporates them in Myotherapy. Shar can incorporate them in her remedial massage and yet has also been trained in full body relaxation hot stone massage at Japanese Mountain retreat. Please give it a go it is simply amazing.
Note: People with heart or skin conditions, diabetes or high blood pressure are not recommended to have this type of massage.
