SW Massage and Wellness Centre is pleased to offer South Calgary Hot Stone Massage Therapy as an additional benefit to our other massage therapy services, here in our SW Calgary Wellness Centre.
What is it?
It uses smooth, warm, basalt stones to enhance the therapeutic benefits of your massage therapy treatment. The stones are heated in a sanitizing water bath before every use and will retain their heat throughout your treatment which is due to the high iron content in the basalt.
What are the Benefits?
It provides a calming relaxing benefit for your physical and psychological state. The gentle heat released from the stones will help both you and your muscles relax which allows our massage therapists to work deep into your tissues. Patients that suffer from overly tense muscles tend to relax more with hot stone massage therapy and bask in the warmth of the stones as we release your muscle tension to soothe your sore muscles.
It is primarily recommended to provide pain relief for chronic conditions such as fibromyalgia, arthritis, and carpal tunnel syndrome. It will also:
Decrease pain and muscle spasms
Reduce tension and chronic stress
Increase the flexibility, mobility, and movement in your joints
Provide pain relief caused by strained and contracted muscles

At SW Massage and Wellness Centre, we combine it with a full body massage for optimal healing and deep relaxation. If you would like to learn more about the benefits of this treatment, we invite you to contact our office.
