Hot stone massage is a therapeutic technique that involves the use of smooth, heated stones to enhance the traditional massage experience. Typically, basalt stones, known for their heat retention properties, are heated and strategically placed on the body or used by the therapist during the massage. The warmth from the stones helps to relax muscles, allowing for deeper tissue manipulation and increased circulation. The combination of heat and massage can alleviate tension, promote stress relief, and enhance overall relaxation. The soothing warmth of the stones creates a comforting and tranquil atmosphere, making hot stone massage a popular choice for those seeking a therapeutic and indulgent spa treatment
