About the Appointment

If you're seeking relief or relaxation, a massage might be just the thing. One especially therapeutic type of massage that has become increasingly popular is hot stone massage, which incorporates hot stones into traditional massage techniques. What Is a Hot Stone Massage? A hot stone massage is a type of massage in which the masseuse places smooth, hot stones on your back. These stones provide heat therapy to the muscles, which can help reduce tension and pain. The stones used in hot stone massage are typically basalt, volcanic rock that is usually high in iron, which allows them to absorb heat.
