ESPA Hot Stone Therapy
This technique has been used for thousands of years for harmonising, cleansing and relaxing the body at its deepest level. ESPA is bringing this ancient method into a range of new contemporary treatments.
Volcanic in origin, the Basalt lava stones from deep within the earth are rich in minerals and can be heated for use in deep body massage and intensive energy work. They may be placed on specific energy points or Chakras to help the body clear blocked energy centres, help relax and dissolve stress, drawing excess hyper-energy away from over-stimulated areas and bringing new energy to depleted zones. Different mineralogy in cold stones may bring a cooling, clearing effect when placed on the eyelids.

The initial deep cleansing back exfoliation is followed by the Hot Stone Back Massage with aromatic oils bringing powerful de-stressing benefits to mind and body. Hot stones are placed along the spine, shoulders and neck to stimulate and balance vital energy points throughout this exceptional treatment. The facial includes double cleansing, exfoliating, massaging with deeply nourishing facial oils and the application of an intensive face treatment mask. Whilst the mask is taking effect, the Oriental Head Massage helps to clear the mind, calm the spirit and ease facial tension. The result is re-hydrated, nourished and protected skin, a cleansed and powerfully massaged back and a sense of deep relaxation.
Chakra Balancing With Hot Stones
£135 Treatment time - 1hr 50 mins
Includes Escape at One
Chakras are the seven subtle energy centres in the body which affect our equilibrium and inner harmony and through which one’s life force energy flows. Recognised in both Ayurvedic and Chinese philosophies, blocked and congested Chakras can affect the body and mind both emotionally and physically. Natural energies are stifled and the zest for life is lost or subdued.
Chakra balancing begins as the body is massaged with ESPA blended aromatherapy oils using volcanic hot stones. These are carefully placed on body Chakras’ powerful energy centres and at vital energy points on hands and feet for balance and grounding. Gentle stretching helps release deep-seated tension around the neck and shoulders and stones are positioned along the spine and on the energy points. Critical tension points are massaged around the eyes and ears, before an acupressure head massage is given to calm and soothe the mind and spirit. The result is total calm, quiet energy and a rejuvenated sense of equilibrium.
