Hot stone massage at The Therapy Studio, Rimington

Hot stone massage uses smooth heated basalt stones alongside hands-on massage, so warmth relaxes the muscle before it is worked. At The Therapy Studio in Rimington a 60-minute treatment is £70 and a 90-minute treatment is £90.

Why the heat helps

Warmth relaxes tight muscle more comfortably than pressure alone, which means deeper work can be done with less discomfort. It suits stiff backs and shoulders especially well in cold weather.

Stones are heated to a checked, comfortable temperature and you are asked throughout how it feels.

Who should avoid it

Heat is not suitable with certain conditions, including some circulatory problems, diabetes with reduced sensation, or in pregnancy.

Tell Steph about your health history when you book and she will advise.

Aftercare and what to expect

  • Drink plenty of water — heat treatments are dehydrating.
  • Get up slowly and take the rest of the day gently.
  • Say straight away if any stone feels too hot during treatment.
