A massage of any type is a holistic treat for the body, spirit and mind. The experience of complete all over relaxation is conducive for the body and mind. It is especially necessary when long-term stress, strain or tension persists on various levels in daily life. A very holistic approach to combating stress and tension is through the healing touch of massage. Massage therapy provides many forms and levels of relaxation. Healing is a direct by product of massage treatment. It is induced when the tissues and muscles within the body are kneaded together releasing tension, stress and even discomfort.

Applied pressure and manipulation through the touch and energy of the massage therapist's hands along the skin's surface deepens the levels of both healing and relaxation. The massage recipient receives instant relaxation. In most instances, the massage recipient also receives healing on a deeper level than mere sleep or alternative relaxation methods. The benefits of massage includes the improvement of ligaments, skin, joints and tendons. Massage uses not just the fingers or hands to touch but also the knees, forearms, elbows and even feet. In the case of more modern and advanced massages, additional massage methods and aids are being applied.

The stones are either heated before placement onto the skin's surface or chilled for yet another experience of deepen relaxation.
