Restore balance and release built-up stress with this nurturing treatment focused on the areas where tension most often resides—the head, neck, face, and shoulders. Through intentional massage techniques, this session soothes the nervous system, eases muscle tightness, and encourages a deep sense of calm and clarity. Enhanced with gentle facial cupping, this treatment supports healthy circulation, promotes lymphatic flow, and relieves facial tension often held in the jaw, brow, and temples. The result is not only visible—brighter, more lifted skin—but deeply felt, in a sense of renewed lightness and presence. Ideal for clients experiencing jaw clenching, tension headaches, or upper body stiffness, this treatment offers measurable relief and improved overall function.

We use hot stones to increase blood flow to tissues and to stimulate a soothing “rest and digest” response via deep moist heat. In practice, we use stones that are made specifically for therapeutic bodywork to ensure the best results. They often have smooth surfaces to allow for appropriate contact to the muscles. Sore Spots uses Basalt, Jade and Soapstone for massage because of their ability to absorb, retain, and transfer temperature.

Usually you can expect a Sore Spots hot stone massage to integrate a few cold stones into your treatment. This provides a blissful contrasting hydrotherapeutic experience, which is great for increasing circulation to tissue. Your therapist will single out one or two areas of your body where adding cool stones will enhance your therapeutic experience, and will always check in before integrating a cold element. It is worthwhile to note that many clients find including stones into treatment adds a grounding energy to each session. There is something about literally coming into contact with a natural element during a massage that enables a more mindful presence in healing.

How do you use the stones during massage? During a treatment, you may experience the stones as an extension of the therapists hands for deeper release into the muscle and connective tissue. The therapist may also choose to place hot stones in areas of increased tension - which has a similar feel to and intention of a heating pad - which aids in increasing circulation.
