What is Hot Stone Massage?

Hot Stone Massage Kona is a style of massage therapy in which water-treated stones are placed at specific sites on the client's body to promote relaxation and to help open up the meridians. Muscles are pretreated with the heated stones, allowing the therapist to more easily perform deep tissue manipulations. Cool stones are sometimes used alternately with hot stones. Massage oils are usually incorporated into the massage treatment.

Etymology behind Hot Stone Massage

Heat is one of the tools we use when we are hurting to help relieve the muscle tension and pain, but how does this work? Heat promotes more blood flow to the area because it is a vasodilator. The increased blood flow allows more oxygen and nutrients into the muscle, which is an aid to the healing process, and allows the more efficient removal of metabolic byproducts such as lactic acid. This also helps fight infection and ensure an early recovery.

This massage uses a combination of warm stones and massage techniques to relax tense muscles, relieve pain and stiffness and improve circulation. The treatment can be used for ailments like muscular aches, arthritic conditions and autoimmune disorders. Those who do hot stone massage can customize the treatment to a client's specific needs and preferences.
