Vancouver’s only Registered Massage Therapist offering Synergy™ Hot Stone Massage
The Synergy™ stone massage is an ultra-relaxing hot stone massage with specially crafted ceramic stones contoured to fit around the curves of the body. The professional set of 10 Synergy™ stones blend soothing heat with both gentle and deep massage into a multi-sensational experience until any you've experienced before. The stones hold heat longer than basalt stones used in traditional hot stone massages, and it radiates quickly into the muscles for a deeply relaxing effect.
In many spa massages, the stones are placed on the body and left stationary while massage is performed with the hands on the surrounding skin. This differs greatly from the Synergy™ stone massage, where the stones are incorporated into the massage right alongside the techniques performed by the hands, forearms, and elbows of your RMT.
