Hot
Stone Massage is a style of massage therapy in which
water-treated stones are placed at specific sites
on the client's body to promote relaxation and to
help open up the merdians (energy pathways). Muscles
are pre-treated with the heated stones to allow
the therapist to more easily perform deep tissue
manipulations. Cool stones are sometimes used alternately
with hot stones. Massage oils are usually incorporated
into the massage treatment.
