Hot and Cold Stone Massage

Course Description

Hot stone massage is a deeply relaxing and therapeutic treatment that utilizes smooth, heated stones to enhance the benefits of traditional massage techniques. The warmth of the stones penetrates deep into the muscles, promoting relaxation, relieving muscle tension, and improving circulation. This modality can be particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing muscle pain, stiffness, stress, and anxiety. The combination of heat and massage can lead to a greater sense of calm and relief, making it a popular choice for those seeking both physical and emotional well-being. The application of cold stones offers specific tools for addressing specific client needs, particularly in cases of inflammation, pain, and tension. Participants will explore how to incorporate cold stones into their practice to enhance treatment outcomes and promote deep healing. 8 CEU's Class runs from 8am - 5pm with an hour lunch break Email the instructor at m.shaw@nmschoolofmassage.com with any questions about content.
