hot stone
Warmed massage implement
Hot stone usually appears in the phrase hot stone massage, a spa treatment where heated, smooth stones are placed on the body or used by a therapist to work muscles.
The warmth relaxes tense tissue and allows deeper pressure.
Outside spa contexts, a hot stone is simply a heated rock—used in cooking, saunas, or traditional healing practices.
