Hot Stone Massage
Hot Stone Massage is a therapeutic treatment that helps ease tension and relax tired muscles. In this geothermal hydrotherapy, Laura uses volcanic basalt stones sourced from the riverbeds of the Andes Mountains in South America to provide a deeply relaxing experience.
During the session, heated stones are placed on various areas of the body and used in conjunction with traditional massage techniques. The stones may be positioned along the spine, back, neck, chest, stomach, face, palms, and feet. The gentle warmth induces vasodilation, expanding blood vessels and improving circulation and metabolism.

Why Basalt Stones?
Basalt stones are excellent for retaining heat, making them ideal for this therapy. They are believed to anchor us to the Earth and enhance energy levels. These stones also provide emotional stability, helping to ease difficult transitions and promote tranquility.
