Hot Stone Massage — 90 minutes

We always check the temperature of the stones and adjust it so that they feel pleasant against your skin. At the start, we discuss how you experience warmth, and throughout the massage we continue to respond to your feedback.

If a stone feels too warm, we cool it down or replace it. If you prefer more warmth, we can use a warmer stone after checking its temperature again. Everyone experiences heat differently — we adjust things throughout the session. A burning sensation is a signal to change the temperature immediately.

No — Hot Stone Massage is, above all, a very pleasant, warming massage. The heat helps the muscles relax, allowing us to work gently without needing strong pressure.

You can choose a lighter touch or moderate intensity. The aim is satisfying relaxation that lets your body rest and allows you to breathe freely.

Yes — as part of resting after exercise. Relaxing the muscles, easing the feeling of tension and allowing time for deep relaxation create favourable conditions for recovery.

It is a pleasant choice for a quieter day between training sessions, especially if you enjoy warmth. We adjust the timing and intensity to the demands placed on your muscles; a recent injury or noticeable swelling calls for a different approach.

Plan to arrive a few minutes early and choose comfortable clothing that is easy to put on afterwards. If you have been training or doing physical work, take a shower beforehand. Avoid alcohol and very heavy meals before your visit.

Tell us about any medical conditions, injuries, allergies, medication and recent treatments. Also let us know if you are particularly sensitive to temperature or have difficulty sensing it.

We provide towels, covers and all the equipment at the clinic. You bring your preferences — the pressure you enjoy, the areas that need attention and the wish for a long, warm massage.

After your massage, choose something that lets you enjoy the rest a little longer: a gentle walk, a warm meal or an evening without a packed schedule. Drink water according to your body's needs and return to activity at your own pace.

You can come for a single session or make it a regular ritual. In autumn and winter, it can become your familiar place to warm up — 90 minutes to look forward to.
