With a Heat Pack add-on, your therapist will use moist heat from clay-filled packs heated in a special unit (hydrocollator) to provide deep, soothing warmth for pain relief, muscle relaxation, and improved circulation. The packs are wrapped in thick terrycloth covers and towels, and then thoughtfully and skillfully applied to the body. These are the same packs that are often used in physical therapy.
The weighted, moist heat from the packs penetrates deep into your muscles and helps them relax. Heat packs help open up blood vessels, improve blood flow, and ease pain. This kind of therapy is great for people who have stiff joints, muscle spasms, or long-term pain. The bentonite clay in the packs helps them stay warm and moist for a long time.
You can add one add-on service to any massage for an additional $20 standard rate or $16 for members. To request a service, or learn more about a specific ad-on, ask your therapist about during your intake for your appointment. All add-on’s require signing a waiver for the first time.
Your therapist will discuss if Hot Stone Massage is appropriate for your body.
