There are a wide range of benefits for pre and postnatal massage. Both are relaxing and relieve your body of aches and pains and reduce your levels of stress. Prenatal massage promotes circulation and can help to relieve pain which may be associated with pregnancy like lower back pain and sciatica.

This is a unique massage technique where the therapist uses the power of smooth basalt stones, heated to a high temperature allowing deep relaxation of the body and helps to warm up tight muscles in a gentle and pleasant way. During this treatment some stones are placed in key points along the spine, hands, belly and between your toes to improve the flow of energy in your body. Therapists also combine the use of a variety of different massage techniques to massage certain areas of the body using their hands heated by stones followed by the stone itself. Due to this combination of harmonious movements and the warmth of stones, balance can be brought to the body, mind and spirit by providing a unique, deeply warming experience.

Hot Stone massage is not appropriate for people with certain conditions, such as: pregnancy, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease or any other condition that requires thinning blood medications. We also discourage this massage if you are menopausal, as it may trigger a hot flush.

This is an ancient healing method used extensively in Chinese medicine. According to the knowledge developed over many years, the rubber bubbles are used to massage the body which promote benefits such as improved blood and lymph circulation, cleansing the body of toxins and excess metabolic by-products.
