When you book a hot stone massage you can expect smooth, heated stones made of volcanic rock to be placed on certain parts of your body.

Typical places would include your spine, stomach, chest, face, palms, feet, and toes. Cold stones may also be used to soothe the skin and calm swollen blood vessels.

It’s an indulgent treatment and the perfect option if you want to gift someone a massage.

As well as sharing similar benefits with other forms of massage like relieving muscle tension and helping to promote better sleep, hot stone massage can treat painful conditions like rheumatoid arthritis (RA). People with RA benefit especially from moderate-pressure massage like hot stone therapy.

Participants experienced less pain, greater grip strength, and a more extensive range of motion after just one month of treatment!
