HOT STONE MASSAGE:
1 1/2 Hr. Full body massage
Used by Native Americans and other cultures for centuries, the application of heated stones and their use as massage instruments, helps to increase blood flow rich in nutrients, promotes relaxation and relieves tight muscles.
Hot stones combined with massage, magnify each stroke as the muscle tissue has been loosened by the stones and the warm relaxed muscles enable the therapist to work at a deeper level, providing a powerful massage.
Chilled stones may be used in combination with the hot stones, and the contrast provides a stimulating yet relaxing effect.
If you have never experienced a Hot Stone massage, it's time to treat yourself to this amazing massage and see why people rave about how good it feels.
