Hot Stone Massage: Benefits & What to Expect

Hot Stone Massage is a deeply relaxing treatment where smooth, heated stones are placed on key points of the body and used during massage to melt away tension and promote circulation. The heat from the stones allows muscles to warm and loosen more quickly, helping the therapist work more effectively on deeper layers of tissue without using intense pressure.

Benefits of Hot Stone Massage
✅ Deep Muscle Relaxation
The warmth of the stones helps muscles release tension faster, allowing for a deeper, more effective massage with less discomfort.

✅ Improved Circulation
Heat promotes blood flow, helping oxygen and nutrients reach sore or tight muscles and aiding in recovery.

✅ Pain Relief
Effective for managing chronic pain conditions, muscle stiffness, arthritis, or fibromyalgia symptoms.

✅ Reduced Stress & Anxiety
The calming heat combined with massage techniques helps soothe the nervous system, lower stress hormones, and promote overall emotional wellness.

✅ Better Sleep
By relaxing the body and mind, hot stone massage may support better quality sleep—especially for those dealing with insomnia or restlessness.

✅ Enhanced Flexibility & Mobility
Loosened muscles and improved circulation can lead to greater joint flexibility and reduced stiffness.

Note: Your RMT will always ensure the stones are at a safe temperature and used appropriately for your comfort and safety.

Hot stone massage performed by a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) is covered by most extended health insurance plans and can be claimed through your benefits or Health Spending Account (HSA).
