6 Impressive Benefits of a Hot Stone Massage

Did you know that hot stone massage has been around for more than 2,000 years?

The tradition started in China but quickly spread to all parts of the world, and this ancient healing method is still very much in use today.

Stone massage is more than just a luxurious accompaniment to a spa experience. There are actually some major benefits to this massage technique.

Find out what makes hot stone massage so amazing, and get ready to book an appointment today.

1. Relieves Pain

One of the reasons people may book a massage is to get pain relief. The use of hot stones amplifies the pain relieving properties of massage.

Heat helps the massage benefits go deeper into your muscle tissue, which makes this a more effective pain relief technique than traditional massage. Heat can also help numb the nerves that are transmitting pain while relaxing the tension that caused the pain in the first place.

2. Improves Circulation

Your body needs to be able to circulate blood and other things, such as lymphatic fluids, in order to function properly.

Exercise can help with this, but you can't exercise all day, every day. When you need to boost circulation without tiring out your muscles, a massage that uses hot stones is the perfect solution.

Heat helps your blood vessels open up, while the pressure of massage helps get things moving. Circulation is important as it will help prevent disease and keep your body healthy.

3. Relaxes Your Body

Massage helps your body heal and recover, but it also helps you relax tense, tired muscles.

The tension in the body can have all kinds of negative effects, and it also feels uncomfortable to have tightness or stiffness in the muscles. Whether it's from the gym or just a long day at work, find the relaxation you need with a stone massage.

4. Relaxes Your Mind

Massage has been shown to help reduce stress, anxiety, and depression.

We spend our days connected to work, family, and friends through our smartphones and other devices. Massage gives you a chance to put down your daily concerns and just be in the moment. Both your mind and your body benefit from this high level of relaxation.

5. Aids Your Movement

When your muscles are tight and tense, your natural movement becomes hindered.

Get your full range of motion back with a stone massage. The hot stones help your muscles warm up and stretch out, much like a pre-workout warmup does. This is a great way to recover from intense physical activity or even strain from your job.

6. Provides Necessary Human Touch

We all need contact with other people in order to stay mentally healthy and feel good.

However, human contact isn't always a big part of our day-to-day lives. Stone massage is a healthy, professional way to get in contact with another person in a safe, relaxed environment.

Book a Hot Stone Massage Now

All of the benefits of traditional massage are also there in hot stone massage -- plus some amazing extras.

The addition of heat boosts many of the normal massage benefits. From helping tight muscles relax more effectively to opening up the flow of circulation, adding hot stones to your massages makes a huge difference.
