Misconception
When you see images for Hot Stone Massage, it usually depicts someone lying down with stones balanced on their back, this is not a true reflection. I won’t be placing stones upon you then sneak off for an hour, this is what happens and it's much nicer...

How I use hot stones for massage
Relax and unwind with the gentle warmth of hot stones seamlessly incorporated into your massage experience. Using techniques similar to Swedish Massage, I ensure the pressure is just right for you, with temperature checks along the way to maintain your comfort. As the stones gradually cool, they're replaced with warm ones, offering a comforting weight that helps release tension. If needed, I'll also use my hands for more targeted relief, ensuring your relaxation journey is tailored to your needs

Why have a Hot Stone Massage?
It’s relaxing and comforting.
It can help with stress relief due to the sedating effect on the nervous system.
It can help warm up muscles which aids in being able to work on specific areas of tension.
It’s time for yourself, with no interruptions to enjoy the soothing warmth of the hot stones.

Why does it cost more than Swedish massage?
Because there is more preparation, cleaning and products required. The stones need at least 45mins to heat. They are sanitised and scrubbed at the end of the massage. This all takes time.

Contraindications (when NOT to have a hot stone massage)

Due to the heat changes already present during pregnancy

• Elderly clients and children thinner skin as increased sensitivity makes hot stone massage unsuitable

Due to not being able to sense if the hot stones are too warm against skin

This treatment will increase the flow in the circulatory and lymphatic system and may stress an already compromised body.
