Schedule An AppointmentWhat Is Hot Stone Massage Therapy?
Hot stone therapy has been practiced for thousands of years, originating in ancient India with the Ayurvedic tradition. Heated river stones were placed on the body for natural healing and massage. In East Asia, the Japanese used hot stones to aid digestion, while traditional Chinese medicine employed them to support the function of internal organs.
Today, hot stone massage blends classic techniques with the targeted use of heated basalt stones. These smooth stones are warmed to a therapeutic temperature and either placed on key points or glided across the skin. The heat penetrates deep into muscle layers, helping release tension without heavy pressure. It promotes vasodilation, improves circulation, and delivers more oxygen and nutrients to sore muscles. It also supports detoxification and reduces inflammation. For back pain or stiff shoulders, a hot rock massage may offer lasting relief with less discomfort.
Our hot stone spa is ideal for managing chronic stress, fatigue, or muscle tightness. If you’re seeking both physical relief and deep relaxation, visit us for a calming session. Many people choose a hot stones spa in Edmonton for its physical and mental benefits.
Experience a soothing and healing massage
Sometimes we might need a deep tissue massage to target fatigued muscles, but our body might not respond well to that intense pressure. A hot stone massage is a great way to relax your muscles and experience relief. Our massage therapists can target the deep layers of your muscle tissues without causing additional discomfort.
A hot stone massage is a good option for clients who:
Need to detoxify and relax
If you’re feeling sluggish, mentally drained, or physically tense, a hot stones massage offers a gentle way to release built-up stress and toxins. The heat stimulates circulation and lymphatic drainage, which helps your body remove waste more efficiently. Paired with slow, fluid strokes from your therapist, this treatment calms the nervous system and encourages deep, full-body relaxation. Many clients visit our hot stone spa in Edmonton after a stressful workweek or emotional burnout. It’s a reset for both mind and body.
Have deep muscle pain
Chronic muscle pain, old injuries, or general stiffness can make standard massages uncomfortable or even painful. A hot rock massage warms up the muscles before any deep work begins, making it easier for the therapist to address knots or tension without applying intense pressure. The heat softens muscle fibres, allowing deeper access to layers that would otherwise resist manual therapy. It’s a smart choice for clients recovering from workouts, living with arthritis, or carrying long-term tension in the back, shoulders, or legs. If you’ve avoided massage due to pain, hot stone massage therapy might be your ideal entry point.
Have cold feet and hands
Poor circulation can leave your extremities cold, numb, or tingly, especially in colder weather or due to underlying health conditions. A warm stone massage gently increases blood flow, bringing warmth and sensation back to your hands and feet. The therapist may place stones between your toes or on the palms to stimulate circulation and relieve tightness in smaller muscle groups. Over time, regular treatments at a hot stones spa may help improve blood flow and reduce the discomfort of cold extremities. It’s one of the most soothing options for people who often feel chilled or have low energy.
Our massage therapists will place the heated volcanic rock on the body or use them as an extension of their hands. They can manipulate your muscles more effectively, giving you enhanced benefits.

Hot stone massages incorporate smooth and heated stones. The heat from the rocks relaxes your muscles, relieving tension. The rocks are typically heated between 50-65 Celsius.
The rocks provide a sedative effect, allowing your massage therapist to access your deeper tissues without intense pressure. You’ll feel less sore after a hot stone massage than you would a traditional deep tissue massage.
Your massage therapist might also incorporate other relaxation and Swedish massage techniques into your treatment. These movements can include:
You might experience additional benefits from a hot stone massage – such as:
Reduced Anxiety and Stress
The combination of touch and heat makes a hot stones massage especially effective for mental health. Cortisol levels drop significantly during treatment, reducing the body’s stress response. At the same time, feel-good hormones rise, leaving you with a balanced emotional state. Clients often visit a hot stone spa not just for physical relief, but also for an emotional reset. This form of stone massage is ideal if you’ve been overwhelmed or anxious, as it provides a calming effect on the nervous system and hormone levels.
Improved Sleep Patterns
If you have trouble falling or staying asleep, a hot stones spa in Edmonton may help. The release of serotonin during the treatment supports melatonin production, the hormone responsible for managing your body’s circadian rhythm. A single session at a hot stones spa may help you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and enter deeper sleep stages. Clients who receive regular hot stone massage therapy often notice a long-term improvement in sleep quality and mental alertness.
Boosted Immunity
The therapists at our hot stone spa in Edmonton understand the immune benefits of this therapy. The improved lymph flow and reduced inflammation help your body eliminate waste and defend against illness. Combined with stress reduction, hot rock massage supports a stronger immune system over time. You may find yourself feeling more resilient and getting sick less frequently, especially when you make warm stone massage part of your regular self-care routine.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hot Stone Massage
What Makes a Hot Stone Massage Different From a Regular Massage?
A hot stone massage uses smooth, heated stones to apply warmth directly to your muscles. This allows your therapist to work deeper into the tissue with less pressure than a traditional massage. The stones help relax tight areas faster and provide a unique calming experience not found in standard massage sessions.
How Hot Do the Stones Get During a Massage?
At a hot stones spa, the stones are usually heated between 50°C and 65°C. The therapist always checks the temperature before placing them on your skin to make sure it’s safe and comfortable. You’ll feel a deep, gentle warmth, not burning heat. The goal is to relax and not overwhelm the body.
Is Hot Stone Massage Safe for Everyone?
Most people can safely enjoy a hot rock massage, but there are some exceptions. If you have open wounds, varicose veins, recent surgeries, or certain medical conditions like diabetes or heart problems, speak with your doctor before booking a session.
What Are the Aftereffects of a Hot Stones Massage?
You might feel deeply relaxed, sleepy, or even a little lightheaded. This is normal after a massage hot stone session. Many clients report better sleep, reduced anxiety, and less muscle stiffness for days afterward. Be sure to drink water after your treatment to help your body flush out any toxins released during the massage.
Can I Request a Specific Area of Focus During My Hot Stone Massage?
Yes. At our hot stone spa in Edmonton, you can ask your therapist to focus on areas where you feel the most tension, like your neck, lower back, or legs. The stones can be used both as stationary heat sources and as massage tools to target problem spots. If you’re dealing with specific muscle pain, limited mobility, or just want to relax a particular area, your therapist will adjust the session to suit your needs. Just mention your preferences during your consultation.
