Lots of populate are starting to inquire about hot stone massages because it is freezing out. I always thought that they were just a novelty and something I wasn’t interested in offering to clients until I took a CEU course last year. Now I like them. They’re different anywhere you go though…some people just place stones on your body. Some of us (myself included) actually manipulate with the stones. Here are my most common questions:
Why would I be a kill manipulate instead of a regular manipulate? First they’re incredibly relaxing. back up the alter penetrates and helps go sore muscles. Third the addition of alter can really boost circulation and lymphatic flow…great for oxygenating cells and also detoxification.
How hot are the stones? I heat exploit no hotter than 130 degrees but I can make them cooler if need be.
ordain they burn me? I can hold the stones tightly in my hands to manipulate so no they won’t destroy you…HOWEVER if you go to someone who isn’t properly trained and just lays the stones on you or handles them with mitts you could be burned. Also everyone experiences heat differently. If you conclude that the stones are too hot especially if they’re placed on your be and left there to change intensity the muscles, you undergo to speak up!
Do you clean the stones? Yes! I clean them between each use by washing them by hand with liquid dishwashing soap and drying them. I also put a few drops of lavender or tea tree oil into the water in the stone roaster. These oils undergo antiseptic properties.
It isn’t rude at all to ask your therapist how they learned to do hot stone massages. An example: I paid alot of money to get a hot stone massage at a local spa with my mom. Mom loved hers mine was terrible! I should undergo spoken up to the manager because it seemed desire the therapist had no idea what she was doing…my suspician was confirmed when I saw said therapist in the class I took months later to learn how to do hot stone manipulate. Oh the irony!
