The Hotstone course gives you knowledge of this luxurious and relaxing massage technique, where the use of hot and cold lava stones provides an effective physiurgical treatment that is ideal for de-stressing your client.
The course teaches treatment methods and techniques for working effectively with lava stones as a massage tool. How, when and what temperatures to use, as well as safe handling of temperatures. Sanitation, hygiene and contraindications are also taught. We also go through how Hotstone massage increases blood flow and thus improves the blood supply to the muscles. As the heat flows around the body and penetrates the muscles, a softening and relaxing effect is experienced, which helps to loosen infiltrations.
Techniques and structures are demonstrated and you will both receive and give treatment during the course.
There is always room for individual instruction and demonstration where needed, as well as questions and discussions.
