As the name suggests, hot stone massage incorporates warm stones to relax muscles in conjunction with traditional massage techniques like Swedish Massage. Smooth, sanitized, basalt stones are warmed (heated to approx 125-50 degrees), then placed on different parts of the body to open up energy channels and promote circulation. During treatment the stones are applied ?with pressure and often left for a period of time on the spine, belly or hands. Hot stone massage is extremely relaxing. (holistic pages)
