Hot Stone Massage
Description
Hot stone massage is a valuable treatment for individuals with anxiety, back pain, depression, insomnia, and osteoarthritis. Hot stone therapy can also reduce pain and muscle spasms, chronic stress, and muscle tension. This technique, like sports massage, can increase flexibility and allow for easier mobility. It has also been known to relieve pain and tension created by contracted muscles. The heat from the stones not only causes muscles to relax which allows for deeper tissue access but also expands blood vessels which results in better blood flow.
