Benefits of Hot Stone Therapy with Reflexology

Reflexology and Stone MassageHot stone reflexology offers a soothing, relaxing therapy session in conjunction with the positive benefits of reflexology.

The reflexologist uses the hot stones in addition to pressure at the various reflex points, creating a heightened therapy experience. In addition to increasing the body’s energy flow, the added heat of the stones enables the reflexologist a deeper access into the reflex points, thus enhancing the therapy’s positive effects. The thermogenic benefits of the stones improve the blood flow, and results in increased effects from the session.

Using stones during a reflexology treatment also helps the therapist prevent strain and stress on his or her fingers, hands, and wrists. The heat of the stones helps loosen the client’s muscles and allow for deeper penetration without the extra exertion of the therapist. In addition to the client benefiting from the relaxation effects of the stones, the therapist also experiences this soothing benefit.

Because the client experiences such a deep yet comfortable massage, he or she is more likely to return to the therapist for additional sessions. Furthermore, by learning an additional feature to include in therapy sessions, therapists increase their earning potential.
