The session

In a hot stone session, smooth heated basalt stones are placed on key points of the body while your therapist uses more stones to massage with gentle pressure. The heat sinks into tight muscle and lets it release with far less force than deep tissue work requires. It is deeply calming, and especially good in cold months or for anyone whose tension does not respond to lighter touch.
