Hot-stone Massage
Hot-stone massage uses Basalt stones. Basalt is a volcanic rock and is formed by
intense heat. Under the influence of water, sand and wind, these stones have become
soft and smooth in the course of many centuries. Their density and high iron content
ensures they retain heat well and gradually disperse it to the body. The temperature
of the stones used in Hot-stone massage is between 40 and 45 degrees Celsius.
We start by placing warm stones on your body to get you used to the luxurious heat.
Then you are massaged with the warm, smooth stones. They stones are not just a
heat source but also a massage tool in the hands of the masseur.
I do not give Hot-stone massages during the months of June, July and August. |
