Tips for using hot stones

• Before the treatment, rinse all the stones and place them in a heater. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions – the temperature of the stones should be approximately 47 – 50°C.
• Before use, lubricate the massage stones with oil (no excess oil).
• The patient’s skin must also be covered with oil.
• Avoid banging stone against stone and avoid metal tools when removing the heater (noise can disturb the patient’s relaxation).

Recommendations for stone care

• After each use, rinse the stones with warm water and soap and then disinfect with an antibacterial agent.
• After each day of use, place the basalt stones in a bowl with water and sea salt for about 20 minutes.
• They also need to be dried and lubricated with a natural oil (e.g. olive oil), then wiped clean and stored in a special box designed for massage stones.

People with high blood pressure and circulatory problems should take special care during hot stone therapy. If you have any doubts about the suitability of the treatment, it is advisable to consult your doctor.
