Massage therapy is a specialty of western massage in which soft tissue manipulation and related techniques are applied in the treatment of pathological conditions. A subspecialty is the treatment of musculoskeletal dysfunction. Massage therapy includes deep tissue, Swedish medical massage, neuromuscular therapy (trigger point therapy), acupressure and more. Hot stone massage is a form of contemporary bodywork and spa treatment. Hot stones of various sizes, shapes, and textures are used as massage tools and as a form of thermal therapy. As massage tools, hot stones are used instead of the hands to apply pressure during techniques such as effleurage. As thermal therapy, hot stones may be heated and placed on the body over certain anatomical structures or in patterns over energy centers and meridians.
