hot stone therapy

Warm rock treatment

Hot stone therapy is a massage technique using heated, smooth stones placed on the body or used as massage tools.

The warmth relaxes muscles and promotes circulation: I booked a hot stone therapy session at the spa.

The stones are typically basalt, chosen for heat retention.
