What does a hot stone massage do for you?
• The intense heat has a calming effect on the heart, circulation and well-being – which promotes the relaxation process and can alleviate stress-related symptoms such as insomnia.
• The combination of deep massage and warmth can stimulate the lymph flow.
• Muscle tension and hardening can be relieved. Particularly beneficial for neck and shoulder pain.
• Nice side effect: The heat opens the pores so that the skin can absorb the nourishing ingredients of the massage oil used even better.
• At the end of the hot stone massage, there is an optional application of cool stones. This cold stimulus stimulates the metabolism and blood circulation – and thus also improves the supply of nutrients to the skin, similar to contrast showers.
• Advantage for people who are prone to headaches: The cold causes the blood vessels to contract again, so that the increased blood flow is reduced again. Because this is often the trigger or intensifier of headaches.
