Hot Stone Courses.

What is hot stone massage?

The heat from the warm basalt stones penetrates deeply to help loosen and sooth tightened, congested muscles. The cool marble stones are used to reduce inflammation and create a balanced and rejuvenating treatment.

Hot Stone Massage:

• Relaxes while it rejuvenates
• Soothes and decongests the body
• Detoxifies physically and energetically
• Tonifies and enhances tissue repair
• Leaves you feeling grounded, balanced, and revitalized
• Is the ultimate for Body, Mind, & Soul

Therapists find that the stones and the temperature extremes do most of the heavier work for them. This course also introduces information about the subtle energy bodies that all life forms emit. It works with these energies to create a longer lasting and much more potent treatment.
