What happens during treatment
During a Hot Stone - 60 Min session smooth, heated stones glide across the body while your therapist alternates stone work with manual techniques to address tight areas. You remain draped for privacy; therapists place stones on and move them over muscles to promote immediate relaxation without changing the overall 60 MIN appointment length.
The experience is paced for comfort: stones are warmed off-site or in a controlled warmer and applied at temperatures you confirm with the therapist. If you prefer lighter pressure, cooler stone contact, or focused work on specific areas, communicate that before and during the session so the therapist can adjust technique in real time.
Therapist choices and safety
Therapists tailor stone placement and pressure to each client’s feedback, concentrating on areas that hold tension. The method emphasizes steady, slow strokes and intermittent direct contact so the heat complements manual touch rather than replacing it. If you’re coming because you feel stressed, stiff, or need extra TLC, tell the therapist where you feel tightest.
Certain skin conditions, open wounds, or recent surgeries change what can be done safely with heated stones, so disclose any medical concerns when booking. Therapists will avoid using heated stones directly on sensitive areas, and they may modify the session if you report unusual discomfort, pregnancy, or circulatory concerns.
