Himalayan salt stones are all natural stones composed of – you guessed it – salt! For a massage service they are heated and used by the therapist as a tool to provide gentle massage. The salt gives a soothing exfoliation experience to the skin, leaving it feeling fresh and soft, while the heat from the stones is comforting and relaxes stiff and sore muscles.
The hot stones we use at Center for the Healing Arts are natural basalt stones. They are heated to a safe and comfortable temperature and also used as a tool during a massage session to provide warmth, comfort, and relaxation.
