About Hot Stone Massage

What Is Hot Stone Massage?

Hot stone massage is thermotherapy combined with traditional massage technique. Smooth volcanic basalt stones — chosen for their density, heat retention, and natural infrared properties — are heated to 50–55°C and used both as placement therapy (resting on key tension points) and as active massage tools worked across the body in gliding, pressing strokes.
The heat penetrates 3–4 centimetres deeper into muscle tissue than hands alone — expanding blood vessels, dramatically increasing local circulation, and allowing a level of muscle release that would require considerably more pressure to achieve through manual work alone. The result is a treatment that is simultaneously deeply therapeutic and profoundly sedating.

How Hot Stone Massage Is Performed

Therapist prepares each set of stones to a specific temperature before every session. The stones are never applied cold; they are never uncomfortably hot. The ideal working temperature is precise and consistent.
A session follows this structure:
  1. Placement phase — heated stones are positioned along the spine, in the palms, between the toes, and at the base of the neck. You rest quietly for 5 minutes while the heat begins to soften the tissue
  2. Back and shoulders — Therapist works with heated stones in long gliding strokes across the back, the warmth moving ahead of the pressure to open tissue before it is worked
  3. Legs — combination of stone strokes and hand technique along the quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves
  4. Arms and hands — detailed work, particularly on forearms
  5. Neck and scalp — smaller stones and hand technique on the cervical muscles
  6. Final placement — stones rest on the body during a closing quiet period to allow the heat to fully integrate
The temperature is monitored continuously. You can request cooler stones at any time.

Why Get Hot Stone Massage at Aurrum

  • Our therapist specifically trained in thermotherapy — they understands stone temperature, placement, and the interaction between heat and tissue response; this is not decoration, it is technique
  • Professional-grade basalt only — we do not use river stones or substitute materials; volcanic basalt's mineral density and heat retention is what makes the treatment work
  • Temperature is managed precisely — stones are maintained in a professional heating unit throughout the session; they are never overheated, never applied below therapeutic temperature
  • The combination effect is irreplaceable — for clients who carry deep muscle tension but have a low tolerance for strong manual pressure, hot stone reaches the same depth through heat rather than force
  • Evening sessions are exceptional — the sedating effect of the treatment is at its most powerful in the evening; many clients book late afternoon slots and report sleeping deeply the same night

Who Usually Comes for Hot Stone Massage

  • Clients with chronic lower back pain who have found manual massage insufficient — the heat penetrates where pressure cannot
  • People with poor circulation — the vasodilating effect of heat makes this the most effective treatment in the menu for circulation-related complaints
  • Those who want deep release without intense pressure — hot stone provides therapeutic depth through temperature, not force
  • Dubai residents during cooler months — muscle tightening in winter responds particularly well to heat-based therapy
  • Clients who fall asleep during massage — the combination of warmth and rhythm makes this the most soporific treatment we offer; it is a feature, not a side effect

FAQ

  • Will the stones be too hot?
No. Stones are maintained at 50–55°C — warm and deeply comfortable, not burning. Sabina checks your response in the first minutes and adjusts if needed.
  • Is hot stone massage suitable for everyone?
Not for those with: active inflammation, nerve damage, diabetes with poor sensation, very sensitive skin, or during pregnancy. Disclose any medical conditions at booking.
  • How is hot stone different from deep tissue?
Deep tissue achieves depth through manual pressure. Hot stone achieves similar depth through heat — making it a better choice for clients who prefer less intense manual pressure.
  • Can I combine hot stone with another treatment?
For a 90-minute session, Sabina can incorporate elements of Swedish or deep tissue alongside the stones. Mention this when booking.
  • How will I feel afterwards?
Very calm, often sleepy. Avoid scheduling demanding activities immediately after. Hydrate well.
