Hot Stone Massage in Mt. Kisco

Posted by Ricky Mason
on September 21, 2016
Life can be stressful with work, school, family, social activities and responsibilities. With handling the business of everyday activities, it’s important to find periods throughout your week where you can rest and relax. A great way to pursue rest and relaxation is with a massage.
There are numerous massages a person can get, and one that our professionals at Richard Scott Salon recommend is a hot stone massage. Hot stone massages are an excellent massage method and they end in great results – total rest and relaxation.
What is a hot stone massage?
A hot stone massage is a natural therapy where warmed stones are positioned on parts of the client’s body. These stones are typically river rocks or other smooth-surfaces stones which are typically made of basalt. Before use they are heated and sanitized.
The iron from the basalt in the stone helps to retain heat during the massage. Hot stone massages have numerous benefits on both a physical and psychological level. Here are a few ways hot stone massages can benefit you.
Muscle relaxation
The heat from the stones is a major help for relaxing your muscles. This allows the massage therapist to manipulate your deep tissues in a more effective manner. Overly tense muscles can hinder the massage procedure so if your muscles are extremely stiff, the heated stones can provide the extra relaxation you will need.
Relieves pain
Most people decide to get a massage because they are experiencing tense muscles, stiff joints or injuries. A hot stone massage provides greater relief due to the intense practice of the massage. Because the hot stones help to remove the tension in your muscles that deep massage of the relaxed joints and muscles can really help with pain relief.
Quick tip: If you are experiencing pain during the massage make sure to tell your masseuse. Serious pain can cause a more serious injury.
Offers mental benefits
Massage therapy can result in not only physical benefits, but also mental health benefits. Relaxation can do a number on your body, but it has even more power over your mind. A hot stone massage can help ease some of your mental stress and tension. It can help manage some of your symptoms of anxiety and depression because a relaxed body can also relax your mind. Of course massage therapy isn’t a cure for mental health or psychiatric care, but it can really assist in those areas.
Hot stone massages are offered at Richard Scott Salon in Mt. Kisco. Our massage professionals want to welcome you to our beautiful, relaxed environment where you will be treated well, leaving relaxed and rejuvenated. – Contact Richard Scott Salon today to set up your appointment!
Benefits of going to a Nail Salon

It’s important in the midst of the business of life to treat yourself. This could be grabbing a Starbucks drink after a busy day at work, buying that cute top you’ve been eyeing for weeks or going to the nail salon!
In Mt. Kisco, New York Richard Scott Salon offers a full service nail salon available to our clients. We want to make sure guests come, feel pampered and are treating themselves the best way they can.
Nail salons have been around for decades and are a great way to treat yourself to a professional manicure or pedicure. There are numerous benefits to going to a professional nail salon in Mt. Kisco.
You’ll receive professional service.
Most manicure services are performed by highly trained individuals. Unlike manicures done at home, you won’t have to worry about over polished nails or design mistakes. If you’re doing your nails at home it may take you a much longer time to fix any mistakes you may have made.
When your hands are in the responsibility of a professional manicurist, you can rest assured that your nails will be cared for effectively. Even if a little mistake is made, a professional can make quick, easy adjustments making your nails look even and beautiful.
You’ll experience extra pampering.
When you’re getting your nails done at a professional nail salon you will be provided with the benefit of experiencing extra pampering during the nail care process. Not only will you have your nails professionally painted but you will also receive a warm towel treatment, moisturizing and a hand massage. Depending on the salon some even offer short massages while you’re drying your nails!
Even the atmosphere offers pampering in itself. Many nail salons have a relaxing environment that promotes total wellness and relaxation. You can get more value for your money as many nail salons ensure that their customers are taken care of in a relaxing, pampering environment.
You get more variety.
A well-equipped nail salon provides their customers with a large variety of nail colors from matte, to sheer to glitter. If you’re going to do your nails at home, you are limited to the selection of nail colors because you’re only relying on what you have at home.
At a nail salon you have a wide range of products to choose from, but not only for colors. Many nail salons now offer regular polish, gel and shellac. You can also get fancy with a beautiful French manicure or pedicure for special events or just to treat yourself!
At Richard Scott Salon we want to be sure you’re taken care of. We offer nail services so you can come in, relax and be pampered to. So treat yourself to a day at the nail salon at Richard Scott Salon in Mt. Kisco!

Hair Styling Tips in Mt. Kisco

on September 15, 2016

What is one thing many Americans need on a consistent basis throughout the year? Can you take any hints – you may have guessed right; a hair stylist? Men, women and children are constantly getting haircuts and different stylings throughout the year.
At Richard Scott Salon located in Mt. Kisco, New York our hair styling professionals will give you exactly what you want and make your hairstyle turn heads all season long. Hair care is one of the most important aspects of a great hairstyle that stays looking good all season long. Here are a few tips we have for you.
1. Know your hair type.
The first and most important, know your hair type. We all are different, and that is a great thing. This especially goes for the kind of hair we have. Some hair is coarse, some is smooth, some heads are filled with curls, or some have straight strands. Hair can be long, short, medium, black, brown, blonde, purple. All hair is different and identifying the kind of hair you have will help determine what the best styling methods will work for you.
2. Know how to properly blow out your hair.
Often time, air drying hair can leave it a little wild. Strands sticking out in all directions, especially with the August heat, can leave the house looking like one of those troll dolls from the 90s. This is where the miracle of blow dryers for your hair comes into play. They’re a quick, easy way to get your hair dry and ready for whatever you need to conquer for the day.
Knowing how to properly blow out your hair is the key to making it look good for you hair type. Start at the roots with your hair dryer set at a warm temperature and work your way down your hair to the ends. Starting at the roots will give your hair extra volume so it will look great all day long!
3. Maintain your heat.
We love our hair curlers and straighteners and we can really get a lot out of them. There’s the great a product called heat spray that protects your hair during drying so you don’t burn your hair to a crisp. Be cautious with how much heat you use on a daily basis. Too much heat, even with protection spray, can leave your hair dry and weary. It can even lose its natural luster, so always be conscious of how much heat you are using on your luscious locks.
4. Research products that would be best for your hair type.
There are a number of different creams, serums, shampoos, conditioners and sprays for all the hair types you can imagine. Identifying what your hair needs will help determine what the best products are for you. Read the labels and try a few different products.!
5. Be creative!
One of the best parts about hair styling is that you get to channel your own creativity into your styles. There are braids and up dos for girls of all types and even really cool cuts and styling treatments for guys. Your hair can match your personal style and keep you looking great all season long.
If you think it may be time to get a new hairstyle, contact us today at Richard Scott Salon. We’d be happy to help you find a look that best fits you!
