Hot Stone Massage Course ITEC 3

Hot stone massage is a type of healing massage that involves the use of heated stones to relax muscles and release tension deeply. The stones are typically smooth, flat, and made of basalt rock, which holds heat well. The warmth of the stones also promotes increased circulation and can help to calm the nervous system, making it an effective treatment for reducing stress and promoting relaxation. Overall, hot stone massage is a soothing and therapeutic experience that can provide both physical and mental benefits. This method is a great new skill to add to your existing qualifications or to use as a standalone therapy.
