Stone Therapy

Stone therapy is a deeply relaxing and healing therapy.

With the use of hot stones to massage and cold stones to revive, you are left feeling in a state of gentle relaxation but alert and refreshed.

The stones are used to massage heat deep into the muscles, enabling massage strokes to be applied more gently but more effectively. A hot stone is considered to be ten times more effective than hand massage alone. Cold stones are then intermittently used to refresh, causing your system to flush itself and assist in the body’s naturally healing process.

Often when massaged with hot stones alone, clients can sometimes be left feeling sluggish and drained, the cold stones counteract this and leave you in a relaxed but refreshed state. However, if you do not enjoy the experience of the cold stones, they do not have to be used. All massages can be adapted to the client.

A more spiritual approach to Stone Therapy

The mind and spirit can also powerfully affected by this treatment helping to eliminate negative energy and promote a gentle sense of well-being.

To help revitalise your energies the stones can be placed on specific areas of your front, back and head. This can stimulate your body’s natural energy and help balance its flow throughout the body.

This is considered to be a strong and essential element to a stone therapy session.
