Hot Stone Massage is a deeply relaxing and therapeutic treatment, which uses heated, smooth, volcanic stones. The stones have an extraordinary energy and with the right combination of heat, oil and an experienced therapist, the treatment is a true escape for the body and mind.

Sink into soothing warmth with our Hot Stone Massage, a full-body treatment that combines smooth, heated stones with traditional massage techniques to melt away tension and promote a profound sense of calm.
The warmth of the stones are used to warm the muscles more quickly and effectively than hands alone—allowing your therapist to access deeper layers of tension with greater ease. Gentle to moderate pressure is used, making this treatment ideal for those seeking stress relief, improved wellbeing, and a soothing sensory experience.
This is a nurturing, restorative treatment—not intended for addressing deep muscular issues or injuries.
