Hot Stone Massage

Our Hot Stone Massage in Nairobi involves the application of smooth, flat, and heated stones gently placed on your body as part of a relaxing massage treatment. The basalt stones are positioned along your spine, in the palms of your hands, along your legs and between your toes. Basalt stones are used as they are rich in iron content, which retains heat. Cold marble stones are often used to help aid with detoxing and healing the body.

Traditionally, the therapy begins with Swedish massage therapy to prepare the muscles
Then your therapist will place the warm stones on key acupressure points – this is done to warm and relax your muscles, allowing deeper pressure to be applied during your massage
Lastly, using massage oils and a combination of techniques, your therapist will massage your neck, back, arms, and legs with and without the stones

Hot Stone Massage encourages your body to detox and heal by releasing lymphatic flow and encourages your body to remove waste products. Other benefits include: aiding pain relief, promoting sleep, relieving depression, relaxing tense muscles, and improving circulation.
