Frequently Asked Questions

What does a hot stone massage feel like?
Warm, smooth stones deliver steady heat while your therapist applies measured pressure. Many guests feel deep relaxation and quick relief in tight areas.
Can I have this when pregnant?
Hot stone treatments are not advised during pregnancy. Please ask about our pregnancy safe alternatives or let us tailor a gentler service.
Will it be painful?
It should not be painful. You control pressure and heat levels and we adjust throughout for comfort.
What should I wear?
You will undress your upper body to your comfort level. We use towels to protect your privacy and only uncover the area being treated.
How often should I book?
For ongoing tension, book every 2 to 4 weeks. For maintenance, a monthly visit helps keep muscles supple.
