The method of thermotherapy enjoys a great popularity in the sphere of SPA treatments. The main player in this type of the massage is a natural stone. The essence of the massage is the alternation of stones with a different origin nature (rough and polished natural stones’ surfaces are used as well as stones of different sizes).
But at the same time all these stones will be used after the preliminary exposure to a particular temperature regime. As a result some stones will return heat and others coolness.
The masseur practicing the stone therapy (the stone massage) presses masterfully on certain points of feet, palms, spine, sideburns and ears.
The alternate use of the massage technology with heated and cooled materials supports the activation of muscles’ tone, improves the circulation of blood through the contraction and expansion of the vascular system of the body. In this case the initial and final stage of the massage is complete with a traditional relaxation massage performed with the master’s hands.
