By
now, you have probably heard about hot stone massage already. Since
it’s quite new to your ear, you don’t give it attention. Many are
skeptical about it at first but once they experience the benefits of
this unique massage, they just keep coming back for more. Are you ready
to learn more about it?
What Can It Help You With?
Hot
stone massage uses heated and smooth flat stones. This type of massage
is said to help with stress, anxiety, arthritis pain, insomnia, poor
blood circulation, depression and back pain. The best people to get this
massage are those that suffer from tension. The warm stones help in
relaxing the muscles resulting in a more relaxing experience for you.
How Does It Work?
If
you want to reduce the stress you’re feeling and have a clearer mind,
getting a hot stone massage is worth the try. The massage therapist will
apply oil on the body to allow the warm stones to glide easily. Once
the oil is applied, the warm stones will be placed in the key areas. How
hot are these stones? The stones are placed in a warming unit but the
therapist will grab these stones first before putting them on your body.
That is to make sure the stones are not too hot. If you are heat
sensitive, do let your therapist know right away. Speak up if there is
anything uncomfortable.
A typical hot
stone massage takes 60 to 90 minutes depending on your choices. The
only thing you need to do during the session is to relax and clear your
mind. The rate for the massage will vary from one massage center or spa
to another. You may want to call ahead for an appointment to make sure
that a therapist for this type of massage will be present. There are
therapists who are trained to specialize in this type of massage.
Choosing the Massage Center
To
make sure that you have the best massage experience, pay the spa or
massage center a personal visit. Talk to the staff and know more about
their specialties. Look around the facility, is it clean and relaxing?
Usually, quality massage centers have a very therapeutic feel the moment
you step into the facility. If you don’t feel comfortable, look around
for other massage centers. At the end of the day, you want to be
stressed-free and relaxed; not stressed about the therapist and massage
center.
