This treatment involves the application of water heated basalt stones of varying sizes to key points on the body giving a deep massage & creating sensations of comfort and warmth.  The direct heat relaxes muscles, allowing manipulation of a greater intensity than with regular massage.   It is quite an experience to feel the deeply relaxing, penetrating heat from the basalt stones & the use of extremes of temperature has long been scientifically and medically proven to be of benefit to the body. Stone Therapy goes beyond the physical experience of a typical massage through the special vibrational energies of the stones. This can bring about emotional and spiritual healing in a calming, comforting and centered way.  Many people, having experienced a Hot Stone massage, mention how warm, nurturing, cradling, refreshing and totally blissful it is. The ultimate in deep physical therapeutic massage.
