Hot Stone Massage
Service Description
Hot stones, warmed by fire, have been used by native Americans to give relief to aching muscles. The heat from the stones leads to deep relaxation and to warming up of the tight muscles enabling the therapist to work more deeply and more quickly, giving slow and gentle strokes in a way that people feel grounded, comforted and calm. I use the energy lines or meridians of the body to place hot stones for energy work. By doing so, movement of energy known as qi or chi is stimulated and in this way the effects of stress are eliminated and healing is facilitated. Hot stone massages also help in releasing toxins, relieving pain and improving circulation. People who have experienced massage with heat get so many healing properties that they keep coming back for these massages.
