Hydrotherapy and the application of heat to the body to produce therapeutic effects can be traced to ancient times. The application of hot stones during a facial adds a medium for the application of heat and/or cold to the body. The combination of heat from the pairs of stones and the gentle massage action of your hands will relieve stress and headaches and produce a soothing state of relaxation and well being – both for you and your clients.
