The premise behind hot stone massage therapy is that the direct heat of the stones relaxes muscles, allowing the therapist access to their deeper muscle layers.
Combining hot stone protocols with a full body massage provides a very healing & effective experience.
The hot stones also exp& blood vessels, which encourages blood flow throughout the body. The hot stones have a sedative effect that can relieve chronic pain, reduce stress & promote deep relaxation.
Due to the huge changes that occur in the body during pregnancy,(for example the added weight of the baby) pressure is increased on the lower back and neck areas.
Therefore, during pregnancy, massage has a lot of benefits such as helping to relieve lower back and neck pain, reducing water retention, soothing swollen ankles and also helps to improve circulation which reduces the risk of varicose veins.The mother will be supported with pillows as she lies on her side.

This massage uses slow movement, deep pressure, & friction to realign muscles & connective tissues.
The therapist focuses on areas of pain & tension using fingers, h&s, elbows & works to “break up” the tension, or “knots,” in muscles, providing greater freedom of movement.
The muscle tissue is stretched & separated, providing for better circulation of blood.
