The massage is done with 89 volcanic and semi-precious stones. The therapist will choose the stones according to the part of the body that is being massaged and the effect that needs to be achieved. Don’t worry, the stones can’t hurt you, they are round and heated to only 47C. This temperature can’t burn your skin.
The massage starts with placing several hot stones along the meridians of your body. While the stones are heating you up, the therapist will massage other parts of your body, thus providing the heat to reach them as well. Then the stones are moved to another part of the body, until everything is massaged and relaxed.
The therapist will use heated oils in this massage that provide additional warmth and relaxation.
The therapy ends by placing seven semi-precious stones along the chakras of your body. They open the chakras and soak all the negative energy in, leaving you completely renewed. Hot stone therapy offers a lot of benefits and reasons to try it.
