Combining hot stone protocols with a full body massage, we at Natural Health N Healing Centre can help create an effective experience. The hot stones we work with at our Wagga Wagga practice can expand blood vessels, which encourages blood flow throughout the body. The hot stones have a sedative effect that can relieve pain, reduce stress and promote deep relaxation.
Hot stones are placed on the key energy points of the body. The heat of the stones warms up the body and releases energy from the muscles. The stones used are of the mineral basalt. Why basalt? It is a kind of igneous rock that comes from cooled molten lava. Basalt stones contain iron and possess good heat retention properties that last for long periods of time. They are safe to use because they are smooth and usually flat.

After a hot stone massage, you can, in most cases, expect to feel relaxed, refreshed and rejuvenated. Hot stone massage is a therapeutic massage technique that involves the use of heated stones placed on specific areas of the body. The heat from the stones helps to loosen tight muscles and relieve stress and tension. Some of the physical benefits of a hot stone massage may include improved blood circulation, increased range of motion, and reduced muscle pain and stiffness. Additionally, hot stone massage may also help to boost your immune system, improve your sleep, and reduce anxiety and depression.
After a hot stone massage, it's important to take certain precautions in order to ensure you get the full benefits of the experience. First off, avoid exercising immediately after a hot stone massage to allow your body more time to relax. Secondly, don't drink any alcohol as it may prevent the desired effects of relieving stress and tension that come with a hot stone massage. Finally, it's essential that you stay well hydrated; drink plenty of water right after your session and continue to do so throughout the day.
Generally, hot stone massage sessions can last anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour-and-a-half, depending on what areas of the body are being targeted and personal preferences. Ultimately, the length of the session will come down to the individual's needs and the desired outcome for the service. For those looking for intense relaxation or relief from chronic pain, it's generally recommended that a longer massage is beneficial.
