In the realm of therapeutic massage, hot stone massage therapy stands out as a deeply soothing and rejuvenating practice. By combining the healing properties of heated stones with skilled massage techniques, this modality offers a myriad of benefits for both body and mind.
Hot stone massage therapy involves the use of smooth, heated stones placed on key points of the body, as well as incorporated into massage strokes. The heat from the stones penetrates deeply into the muscles, melting away tension and promoting a sense of profound relaxation. This therapeutic technique has been practiced for centuries and is renowned for its ability to enhance overall well-being.
Hot stone massage therapy offers a wide range of benefits, making it a popular choice for those seeking deep relaxation and relief from physical discomfort. Here are some of the key advantages:
The warmth of the stones helps to dilate blood vessels and improve blood flow throughout the body. This enhanced circulation not only delivers oxygen and nutrients to the muscles and tissues but also aids in the removal of metabolic waste and toxins. As a result, clients often experience increased vitality and a sense of rejuvenation following a hot stone massage session.
One of the most notable benefits of hot stone massage therapy is its profound ability to induce relaxation on both a physical and mental level. The gentle heat from the stones soothes the nervous system, promoting a state of deep calm and tranquillity. As muscle tension melts away under the skilled hands of the therapist, clients often find themselves entering a blissful state of relaxation, free from the stresses of daily life.
Hot stone massage therapy is highly effective at relieving muscle soreness and tension, making it an ideal choice for athletes, individuals with chronic pain conditions, and anyone experiencing muscular discomfort. The combination of heat and targeted massage techniques helps to release tightness and knots in the muscles, promoting greater flexibility and range of motion.
Compared to traditional massage therapy, hot stone massage offers a unique depth of healing that penetrates deeply into the muscles and tissues. The heat from the stones allows the therapist to work more effectively on areas of chronic tension and tightness, facilitating the release of stubborn knots and adhesions. This deeper level of therapeutic intervention can lead to profound and long-lasting results for clients seeking relief from chronic pain and tension.

Julie has worked her magic on my c section scar. I went last week for a massage on the scar and surrounding area. We spent a lot of time doing some release work and the transformation is fantastic. I can’t fault the service at all. Julie is welcoming and friendly and takes her time to listen and understands the impact a scar can have on your mental health. Would highly recommend.
This is by far the best thing I have done for my post natal journey! Both physically and mentally, it has been amazing.
I have had a c-section massage with Julie which was again fantastic, I noticed results immediately and was shown techniques to carry on with at home. I will definitely be rebooking!
I went to Julie with a sensitive, hard & lumpy, pulling C-section scar. Julie gave me a complete top to toe once over (perhaps what our doctors should do at a 6 week post natal check) she checked my breathing & my diastasis recti.
Julie used soothing moogwax during my massage, which smells and feels absolutely amazing. Using gentle touch, movements & her special massage tool Julie was able to ease my angry scar to a happy more settle scar that didn’t pull or drag during exercising or playing with my Son. I also felt some more sensation and feeling come back around and on my scar which I hadn’t felt since having my son in May 2018.
I can honestly say my breathing was better (I was able to take a deep full breath) and my ‘mummy shelf’ as I called it felt soo much better and easier when moving around etc and I’ve noticed such a difference with how much my C-section swelling has reduced since having the massage with Julie. I will definitely be visiting Julie again for another session.
