Hot Stone Massage specialists – Sunshine Coast

The massage is a slow rhythmic, top to toe experience. The long, slow, firm strokes performed allow the heat from the stones a greater chance to penetrate past the superficial tissues to reach deep muscle layers.

Hot Stone Massage for Caloundra, Mooloolaba, Currimundi, Kings Beach, Kawana, Pelican Waters, Wurtulla, Buderim, Alexander Headland and MaroochydoreThe heat from the stones increases blood flow to the area enabling deep muscular tension to be released. Like normal massage the pressure used is adjusted to suit your comfort level. You can request light, medium, firm or deep pressure.

When getting a stone therapy massage, it is not unusual for the client’s body temperature, heart rate and breathing rate to rise and fall during the treatment. This is not harmful and is merely the result of the rapid exchange of oxygen and blood in the body.

The basalt stones we use are sourced from South America and were originally molten lava. Basalt, a composition of many minerals, is particularly high in iron, which is why the stones absorb and release heat extremely well.
