Imagine relaxing on a sun-warmed pebble beach and totally letting go with the calming and nurturing touch of massage.

In this comforting and healing massage, basalt rocks of varying sizes and weights are settled comfortably into areas that tend to hold tension. Oiled stones are then used in flowing strokes to relax the whole body. The stones have deeply penetrating heat that can diminish adhesions in the soft tissues.  

The heat of the stones begins to elicit deep relaxation almost immediately, soothing the nervous system and melting the effects of stress. Muscle tension eases under the smooth pressure of the stones, allowing circulation to increase. As a result, irritating toxins are flushed away and the flow of healing nutrients is restored to muscles and other tissues.  

Consult your physician and massage therapist before receiving a hot stone massage if: you are pregnant, have high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes or are under the care of a physician for any other reason.
