HOT STONE THERAPY MASSAGE
With SARAH PEPPER, ITEC, VTCT Qualified
Hot Stone Therapy is a highly unusual, delightful style of massage, increasingly popular in spas and clinics around the world. It makes unique use of basalt volcanic stones , renowned for their heat-retaining properties. The stones are used in a variety of ways to induce a deep sense of relaxation whilst receiving a thorough and healing massage.
At St. George's our Hot Stone Therapy specialist is Sarah Pepper. Sarah begins each treatment by gently heating the stones and placing them carefully on the massage couch. She then lowers you gently down on to them. The wonderful sensations of warmth rising up from the stones enables the first stages of relaxation. Selected stones are then placed against the body, for instance between the toes, clasped in the palms, on the lower back, the neck etc. Again, this encourages you to go even deeper into relaxation.
Finally, Sarah likes to apply stones to the body by hand, as you will now be ready for a skilful deep tissue massage, ideal for removing muscular ‘knots' and all the stresses and strains of everyday living. The overall experience is often described as ‘blissful', as well as having obvious practical benefits.
