Hot Stone: Spa massage relaxation, with a warm therapeutic touch
Background The use of hot stones for massage purposes is deeply rooted. In the North America, use of stones can be traced back through our Native American culture. Hot Stones, or “Grandfathers” were placed on individuals during sweat lodge ceremonies to promote relaxation. In Hawaii, “pohaku” lava rocks were used in a similar fashion. In Asia, the stones were used in more specific and therapeutic ways. Our Hot Stone Massage utilizes both the relaxation you receive from the warmth of the stones and the deeper therapy from the use of the stone as a tool.
