Hot Stone Massage is a specialty massage in which the therapist uses smooth, heated stones as a tool for treatment. The massage therapist places warm, smooth stones on specific points on the body and also holds the stones while giving the massage. Heat has been shown to relax tight muscles, so the hot stones allow the therapist to relieve areas of muscle tension.

We Give The Top Hot Stone Massages In Manhattan, NY

A hot stone massage is a great way to relax and ease tense muscles. The heat from the stones helps to loosen up the muscles and the massage therapist can work deeper into the muscle tissue. This type of massage is also good for increasing circulation and blood flow. The stones can be placed on different areas of the body, such as along the spine or on the chakras. They can also be placed on the hands, feet, or face.

Massage therapists can use hot stones to relieve pain in deep muscle groups and trigger points. The heat from the stones penetrates the skin, relaxing muscles and easing tension. This therapy is especially beneficial for people with chronic pain or joint disorders. The stones are heated in water that is between 110 and 130 degrees Fahrenheit. This is done so that the stones can be used for massage. A thermometer is used to make sure that the water is at the right temperature.

Benefits of Hot Stone Massage

Hot stone massages are a common massage therapy practice that has been used for over 5,000 years. The addition of hot stones aids to relieve muscle tension, promote sleep, reduce stress and anxiety, and help promote oxygen flow.
