HOT STONE MASSAGE
This interactive one day training course will enable you to perform a practical treatment session. Hot stone massage is properly one of the most enjoyable and relaxing massages available.
You must be qualified in a massage discipline before attending this course.By using heated stones a full body massage can be performed where the client and therapist benefit! The heat penetrates deep into the muscle tissue allowing the muscles to relax 4-5 times quicker than in a standard massage, easing muscle tension and revitalising muscle tissue by increasing blood circulation. It has been used by many cultures over hundreds of years to help work on muscle tension at the deepest level and may also accelerate healing processes alongside creating a state of deep mental relaxation.
