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!
