Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Hot Stone/ Bamboo Release Stretch (Gluts/Hamstring/Quads).

You’ll experience warm stones, heated bamboo work and Thai-assisted deep stretches focused on gluts, hamstrings and quads. Sessions can be intense; therapists communicate pressure and adjust techniques to your comfort, ensuring safety while targeting nerve entrapment and deep muscle tightness.

Yes — this treatment is designed to help many people with sciatica by reducing nerve compression and improving tissue mobility. We screen for contraindications and tailor pressure and heat; severe cases may require physician clearance or modified techniques.

Wear loose clothing and avoid heavy meals before your appointment. Hydrate, note medications and bring any relevant medical history. Arrive a few minutes early for intake so your therapist can assess nerve symptoms and customize heat, bamboo pressure and stretch intensity.

Risks include temporary soreness, bruising or heat sensitivity; burns and nerve irritation are rare when performed by trained therapists. Not suitable for open wounds, uncontrolled diabetes, deep vein thrombosis, or certain circulatory conditions. Always disclose medical history before treatment.

Many clients feel meaningful relief after one session, but most benefit from a series — typically two to six sessions spaced weekly. Chronic or severe nerve entrapments may require ongoing care and complementary home stretches or referrals.

We offer 45, 60 and 90 minute sessions priced at $100, $135 and $165 respectively. Each appointment includes assessment and customized heat, bamboowork and assisted stretches to address your specific gluts, hamstring and quad complaints.
