Hot Stone Treatments Clifton.

First of all in this massage treatment, the healing stone ritual incorporates Aromatherapy and tension releasing effleurage, starting with warm sculpted river stones used as an extension of the therapists’ hands to bring you deep relaxation, grounding and perfect balance from head to toe. Cool stones alternately re-energise and stimulate muscles.

The deep penetrating heat of the volcanic basalt stone is combined with traditional massage and aromatherapy techniques to release muscular tension. Enveloped in warmth, you can achieve a deeper dimension of relaxation, to harmonise your energy and invoke a meditative state.

Basalt and Marble Stones produce sedative while re-energizing responses to the body as we incorporate both energies of black and white, hot and cold in the treatment. This wonderful massage creates a feeling of well-being, a sense of wholeness, that one might not have felt for some time.

What happens during a session

Stones are placed on the body, on the body and are used to massage you. The warmth reaches deep into your muscles, melting tension and stress. A stone under each hand opens your hands, the warmth melting up your arm. A comforting stone on the belly feels like a hot water bottle. The lightness experienced when the stone is removed needs to be experienced to be believed. The chilled stones are then used on areas of inflammation.  Cool half moon stones are placed under your eyes.  Warm rocks and hands warmed by the rocks massage away tension. Stone therapy is a holistic treatment, working on mind, body and soul (spirit).

Each rock used has been individually chosen to be used in a LaStone Therapy treatment.
