What Is A Hot Stone Massage?
A hot stone massage is a type of massage therapy. It’s used to help you relax and ease tense muscles & damaged soft tissues. During a hot stone massage; smooth, flat, heated stones are placed on specific parts of your leg & feet. The stones are usually made of basalt, a type of volcanic rock that retains heat. During your foot/leg massage, we use a natural lavender massage oil or plain vegan massage oil. The choice is yours! Add a Hot Stone to your leg/foot massage for just $43.00 more! |
There are some conditions that are contraindicated locally. That means that you can still receive a foot/leg massage but must avoid those areas with those conditions when giving you the massage.
- Broken bones
- Burns
- Some skin conditions
- Cuts
- Bruises
- Varicose Veins
Additional Contraindications
Fever
Anytime you have a fever, whether from a cold, the flu or some other infection; you should not get a massage. Massage increases circulation that may in turn help the infection increase the severity of the fever and the infection.

If you have a contagious disease you are putting your therapist and even your therapist’s other clients at risk of getting it. Please be considerate and cancel your massage
if you come down with a contagious condition.
Blood Clots

risky in the first 3 months of pregnancy--including foot massage. Foot & Leg Massage will be made available for pregnant Women only after the first trimester.
Kidney Conditions or Liver Conditions
Massage can put increased strain on both the liver and kidney if they are not functioning normally. This occurs because massage increases blood flow, increasing the movement of waste through the body.

Talk to a health care professional to see if massage will aggravate any kidney or liver condition.
