Shankara Hot Stone Massage

Description

Hot stone massage therapy is a massage protocol designed with the therapist holding the hot stones as he or she performs massage with High end Shankara Oils made with completely natural & organic ingredients specific for the individual body type. The heated basalt stones become one with the massage therapist's hands to give the most relaxing massage possible. When used with specific techniques, the stones allow the therapist to release tight muscle restrictions more efficiently and with less discomfort to the client.

The stones heated to 130 F are placed at key acupressure points throughout the body, including the hamstrings, arms-even on the face, between the toes & along the spine, thus releases flow of energy & promotes body’s own healing process.

While the stones heat and soothe stiff muscles, other massage techniques can be applied with little or no discomfort-either with the stones still on the skin or after the stones is removed.

The therapist gently rubs the stone into muscles and tissues on both sides of the body; the firmness of the stone couples with the heat enhance the therapeutic benefits of the massage.
