Hot Stones – warmth that works deeply
Hot stones are smooth, polished basalt stones heated to 50–60°C (122–140°F) and used specifically for muscle relaxation in massages and wellness treatments. The sustained, deep heat promotes circulation, loosens fascial structures, and supports recovery after exercise or prolonged sitting. Combined with professional massage techniques, this creates a soothing treatment that calms both body and mind.
