Hot Stone Therapy Is Not just A Luxury

Shawna Klein RMT, PTS

A therapeutic massage is a holistic alternative for your health and wellbeing. It is an effective treatment for reducing stress, pain and muscle tension. Hot Stone Therapy is not just a spa-like treatment, it offers many benefits with a real emphasis on relaxation, healing and grounding.
 
Hot Stone Therapy is an effective treatment that involves deep penetrating heat from basalt stones along with Swedish massage techniques. The heated stones may be placed on various parts of the body to improve the flow of energy into the body. The heated stones also allow the muscles to relax and respond to tension release, without the misconception that pain is necessary to reduce muscle tension.
 
Some of the benefits of Hot Stone Therapy Include:

• Improves back/shoulder/neck pain
• Improves lymphatic circulation
• Increases circulation
• Decreases menstrual pain
• Decreases tension headaches
• Decreases joint pain
• Decreases sciatic pain
• Promotes increased well-being and vitality
• Promotes grounding due to the high magnetic field inherent in the stones
• Reduces overall stress

 
Hot Stone Therapy is a wonderful therapy, not only for therapeutic reasons, but for relaxation as well. Consider bringing your massage experience to a new level and try a Hot Stone Massage.​
