HOT STONE MASSAGE is a massage therapy where therapist use heated stones to warm up the muscles to relieve tensions and pain. The stones are usually made of the volcanic rock type called basalt and they are used because they can retain heat.

Before the treatment the stones are placed in hot water to be warm and ready for treatment. Heated stones can be placed on different areas of your body during the treatment or the therapist may hold a stone to massage different parts using gentle pressure.
