Hot Stone Massage

Hot Stone Massage at Origins Thai Spa: heated basalt stones melt away deep tension. Hot Stone Massage is a specialized treatment wherein smooth, flat stones are heated and applied to client’s skin or used during massage in order to impart heat to facilitate healing and relaxation. Stones may be placed under a sheet upon which the client lays while receiving a therapeutic massage or directly applied to client’s skin. The heated stones are placed along the client’s spine and legs or along the chakra center while client lies on their back.

About Hot Stone Massage

The massage therapist may also massage client while holding oiled, heated stones in the palm of their hands using firm strokes along the muscles of the legs, arms and torso. The heat from the stones relaxes muscles and increases blood flow to the body which further accelerates the healing process. Increased circulation as a result of using heated stones promotes both physical and mental relaxation which allows the massage therapist to manipulate deeper muscles of the body for an intense and therapeutic experience.
