Basalt hot stone massage Aurah spa in Prestwick, Ayrshire

Hot Stone Massage


Hot stone massage is a time-honoured therapy that utilises smooth, heated basalt stones placed on essential points of the body. The warmth of the stones improves circulation, relieves muscle tension, and fosters a sense of overall relaxation. As the heated stones glide over the skin, they effectively dissolve stress, allowing for a deep, soothing massage experience.


Muscle Relief

The warmth penetrates deeply into the muscles, facilitating the release of tension and knots without the need for excessive pressure.


Improved Blood Circulation

The heat promotes blood flow, enhancing the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to tissues, which contributes to faster recovery.


Stress Reduction

The comforting heat, combined with the calming massage technique, reduces stress levels, promoting mental clarity and emotional balance.

Himalayan salt stone massage Aurah spa in Prestwick, Ayrshire

Hot Himalayan Salt Stone Massage


An Aurah hot Himalayan salt stone massage elevates the traditional hot stone experience by incorporating the distinctive properties of Himalayan salt. These beautifully hued pink stones are replete with minerals, which can be absorbed through the skin during the treatment, offering additional benefits. Aurah's Himalayan Salt ritual expertly combines the soothing warmth of heated Himalayan salt stoneswith powerful detoxifying and exfoliating properties

Mineral InfusioN

The salt stones release essential minerals, such as magnesium and calcium, into the skin, aiding detoxification and promoting cellular health.


Natural Antimicrobial Properties

Himalayan salt possesses natural antimicrobial properties, helping prevent infections and promoting overall well-being.


Enhanced Relaxation

The gentle warmth of the salt stones, coupled with their mineral composition, provides a soothing experience that alleviates both physical tension and mental fatigue.


GENTLE EXFOLIATION

The warm, mineral-rich salt crystals gently remove dead skin cells, leaving skin soft, smooth, and rejuvenated. The slightly abrasive stones soften rough areas (like elbows and knees), and help reduce inflammation, revealing glowing skin.

Warm bamboo massage Aurah spa in Prestwick, Ayrshire

Warm Bamboo Massage


Warm bamboo massage at Aurah is an innovative technique that employs smooth, heated bamboo sticks to deliver a distinctive massage experience. Bamboo is used to roll and knead muscles, providing a deep massage without the discomfort that can often accompany traditional deep-tissue techniques. Aurah's specialist therapists also offer a luxurious fusion of hands-on massage and heated bamboo techniques for deep muscle release and complete relaxation.


Gentle Yet Effective:

The warmth of the bamboo helps relax the muscles, enabling the therapist to apply a more profound yet gentle pressure. This results in alleviated tension and stress.


Improved Flexibility

The rolling technique encourages muscle elongation and joint mobility, enhancing flexibility and range of motion.


Stress Relief

Similar to other treatments, a warm bamboo massage promotes relaxation and a calming effect, helping mitigate anxiety and fostering a sense of well-being.
