Since ancient times, hot stones have been used for both
physical and spiritual healing.
- Hot Stone Massage not only dispels tensions and soothes the soul but also
enhances lymph flow, removes toxins, and fortifies the immune
system.
- The treatment causes blood vessels to dilate, leading to improved
circulation and consequently improved oxygen, nutrient, antibody, and
protective cell supply to the area of the body under the stones. It is
extremely effective for joint problems, back pain, and sore
muscles.

By incorporating the metaphysical properties of gemstones and
the healing effects of reiki, this massage also stimulates the meridians and
chakras, gently dissipating energetic blockages.
The power of the stones, the warmth of the treatment, and the massage itself
unite in this holistic therapy to provide deep relaxation and calm that
recharges the body and soul.
Very warm, soothing, smooth, mineral
rich basalt stones glide over the body with heated oil, using traditional
massage techniques, chakra balancing and Reiki, effectively creating positive
energy flow, balance and harmony within the mind, body & spirit, while
relieving tension in your tired, aching muscles, to totally de-stress your body.
Effective for circulation problems, insomnia, anxiety, muscle aches, back pain
and more.

...You begin your journey by reclining on a series of flat hot stones that
trace your spine. Your skin welcomes their therapeutic energy like ripples in a
pool of water. Within minutes, your body and mind begin to trust and respond to
the sensations. Your breathing slows as warm oils are applied to your skin, the
therapist, with hot stones in hands, rhythmically glide across your meridian
lines. The waves of heat surprise your senses, quickly converting to bliss.
The sensation of 'a thousand hands' sweep the energy throughout your body.
Heated Chakra stones align and balance your energy centres, sending their
healing properties deep into your core. Beginning at the leg, the stones
seamlessly glide, relaxing any tension, up the thigh and along the side of the
torso .... up, then down .... and again. Coin-sized stones are lightly wedged
between your toes, radiating heat as your leg becomes cradled in the warm
blanket.
Upper and lower arms receive the same loving touch, massaging right to your fingertips, all in a delicate, non-stop
ritual. Large
stones are gently cradled in your palms as you become enveloped in the soft,
warm blanket.
Your chest and shoulders receive the same mindful practice. Clearing the
lymph system of any toxins. Delicate attention is paid to the face, ears
and sinus points, calming any remaining stresses until they melt away. Warm oils
and velvety smooth stones glide up and down your neck and shoulders, culminating
in a relaxing head massage and Reiki healing. You completely lose track of
where the therapist's hands end and
the velvety-soft stones begin. Hot towels cradle your face,
removing any impurities from the outside world.
As the first half of the treatment
concludes, your body welcomes more to come.
As you gently turn to rest upon your stomach, you receive a relaxing
reflexology foot massage and warm stones are placed upon the soles of your feet.
A large, flat, hot stone is
carefully placed on the towel, just above the tail bone. A sequence of synchronized movements follow the peaks and curves
of your body, careful not to cross your spine or come in contact with bones and
joints.
More heated stones caress and massage every inch of your body with
warmth and sedation, while carefully selected and positioned gemstones soothe
the soul.
You're gently guided through the treatment to a world
beyond. It's as if Mother Nature is healing you with her own tender hands......healing
and balancing your mind, body and spirit.

Please arrive 15 minutes before your appointment time to complete and
review a health questionnaire to ensure a safe and effective session.
I work with holly oil which has no scent. The oil comes from the
branches and leaves of the holly plant and is then de-ionized. A water
based Vitamin E is then added, along with Jojoba as a therapeutic moisturizer to
add glide. It is a non-scented, non-staining oil. It is not likely to
cause allergic reactions as it is not a nut-based oil.
I always hold the stones first before touching them to your
body, which ensures that the temperature will not be too hot. However,
everyone has their own comfort range, so be sure to speak up if the stones are
too hot for you.
