Hot Stones Massage
A hot stones massage is a therapeutic technique that involves the use of heated stones during a massage session. This technique is designed to provide relaxation, alleviate muscle tension, and promote a sense of warmth and comfort.
During a hot stones massage, smooth stones are heated to a comfortable temperature and then placed on specific points of the body. The heat from the stones helps to relax the muscles, improve blood circulation, and create a soothing sensation. The massage therapist may also use the heated stones as massage tools, incorporating them into their massage strokes to provide a deep and relaxing experience.
Hot stones massage is known for its ability to ease muscle stiffness, reduce stress, and create a sense of relaxation. The combination of heat and massage can help to improve the flow of energy and balance in the body.
It’s important to communicate with Kerry about your comfort level with the heat, as she can adjust the temperature of the stones to ensure a pleasant and beneficial experience.

FAQs
Here are the most frequently asked questions about massage treatments. If you have any other questions do feel free to reach out via the contact page.
Massage therapy is a hands-on technique that involves applying pressure, kneading, and manipulating the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and soft tissues of the body. It is commonly used to promote relaxation, relieve tension, reduce stress, and alleviate muscle pain and discomfort.
Massage therapy may offer numerous benefits, including stress reduction, pain relief, improved circulation, increased range of motion, enhanced mental clarity, and relaxation. It may also help in reducing anxiety, promoting better sleep, and boosting overall well-being.
Anyone can benefit from a massage, regardless of age or occupation. Whether you're experiencing muscle tension from sitting at a desk all day, recovering from an injury, or simply looking to relax and unwind, massage therapy can provide relief and improve your overall physical and mental health.
You should undress to your comfort level. Most people prefer to undress to their underwear, but you can choose to wear loose-fitting clothing and be treated through that (e.g. for a Seated Chair Massage). Kerry is trained to ensure your privacy and will only uncover the specific body part being worked on.
Upon booking you will have completed a Consultation Form giving Kerry details of your health history and treatment aim. At the start of your first massage session, Kerry will chat with you briefly to understand any specific concerns and your goals for the massage. She will then explain the process, provide privacy for you to undress, and guide you through the session. Remember to communicate your preferences and any discomfort you may feel during the massage.
Massage therapy should not be painful. While some techniques may apply pressure or involve deeper work, it should always be within your comfort level. It's important to communicate with your massage therapist about your preferences and any discomfort you may feel during the session.
The frequency of massage sessions depends on your individual needs and goals. For general relaxation and stress relief, a monthly or bi-monthly massage may suffice. However, if you're seeking therapeutic benefits or have specific concerns, Kerry may recommend more frequent sessions.
