Call: At Medlife Massage in North Miami, we offer a soothing hot stone massage that will provide you the the best relaxation you will ever need. Our skilled therapists combine the healing power of warm basalt stones with expert massage techniques to provide you with a truly transformative experience. Hot stone massage is a relaxing treatment involving warm stones placed strategically along pressure points for muscles to relax. During a hot stone massage, the stones are heated to a specific temperature and then placed on specific areas of the body, such as the back, hands, legs, or abdomen.
A hot stone massage uses basalt, volcanic rocks that retain heat well. Our therapists at Medlife Massage also hold the stones and use them to massage the muscles, applying gentle pressure and using long, sweeping strokes. The combination of heat and massage helps to relax the muscles, improve circulation, and promote a sense of deep relaxation. Hot stone massage offers several potential benefits for the mind and body. Some of the commonly reported benefits include:.
Muscle relaxation. The heat from the stones helps to warm up the muscles, that brings relaxation and removes muscle tension. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals with muscle stiffness, chronic pain, or areas of muscle tightness.

The warmth of the stones, combined with the soothing massage strokes, can promote a sense of relaxation and tranquility. Pain relief.
