What is hot stone massage?

Hot stone massage uses smooth basalt stones heated in water to around 50°C. The therapist places them along the spine, in the palms and between the toes, and uses others in the hand as an extension of the palm to glide over the body. The heat penetrates muscle far faster than hands alone can, so tension that would take twenty minutes to soften with pressure releases in a few.

It is a deeply relaxing treatment and one of the most popular winter bookings. The heat improves circulation, eases stiffness in cold or arthritic joints, and lets the therapist work more deeply without increasing pressure, which suits people who find deep tissue too much.

Sessions are usually 60 to 90 minutes, and the stones take time to prepare, so this is more often an incall treatment at a studio or spa than a mobile one. It is not suitable during pregnancy, with certain circulatory conditions, or where skin sensation is reduced.

Where to find it in Cardiff

The offering divides cleanly: Cardiff Bay is newer, apartment-based and geared to visitors and the hotels, with mobile treatments and hot stone and relaxing sessions in demand; Roath and Canton are residential, cheaper and serve a local clientele that books repeatedly with the same therapist for Swedish, sports and pregnancy work. The city centre covers the hotels and offices. The Principality Stadium dominates the calendar: on an international rugby weekend or a stadium concert, city-centre hotel visits are booked out days in advance and many therapists stop taking new enquiries by the Thursday.
