Look behind the scenes of Rhulani Safari Lodge.
Rhulani's wide range of massages and treatments includes a hot stone massage. Together with our spa therapist Hloni, we get an insight into this massage that is very popular with guests.
During a hot stone massage, smooth, flat, heated stones are placed on specific parts of your body.
In this hectic life, we have no time to take care of ourselves, hence massage is needed for rejuvenation and stress reduction.
Hot stone massage can relieve pain and tension in your muscles due to the combination of massage therapy and heat. Heat is often recommended as a way to treat achy muscles. Applying heat to an area of the body helps increase blood flow to that spot, which improves healing.
So today on the private deck of the guest chalet, where we typically perform the massages, Hloni tells us more.
Stay tuned for the next episode on 25 August when we talk about a ring barked tree.
