What is a candle massage?
Candle massage is a spa technique that uses special massage candles made with plant oils, butters (such as shea or cocoa) and relaxing scents. As the candle melts, it turns into a warm, nourishing oil that is poured onto the skin to perform the massage.
What does a candle massage involve?
First, the candle is lit for a few minutes, until the wax turns into a liquid oil at a low temperature. The flame is then put out and the oil is checked to make sure it is warm and pleasant to the touch. The therapist pours a small amount onto the skin, usually on the back and shoulders, and works with slow, gentle movements, using long gliding strokes with the palms and circular motions to relax the muscles. The warmth of the oil helps release muscle tension and improve circulation. These candles are made with natural oils and moisturizing plant butters, so the massage relaxes the body and nourishes the skin at the same time.

Are you a good candidate for a candle massage?
Candle massage is a wellness treatment that combines relaxing massage techniques with the warmth and nourishing properties of natural oils melted from special candles
It is especially recommended if:
- 01
Deep relaxation
The warmth of the oil and the gentle massage movements help release the tension built up in the muscles. This promotes a feeling of calm and well-being that lets you switch off from everyday stress.
- 02
Intense skin hydration
Massage candles are usually made with plant oils and natural butters, such as shea or coconut. These ingredients deeply hydrate the skin, leaving it softer, nourished and more radiant.
- 03
Improved circulation
The effect of the heat combined with the massage techniques stimulates blood circulation. This helps oxygenate the tissues better and improves the feeling of lightness in the body.
- 04
Sensory experience and aromatherapy
Massage candles give off pleasant scents that help create a relaxing atmosphere. Aromatherapy enhances the feeling of well-being, helping to reduce stress and improve your mood.
- 05
Relief from muscle tension
The warm oil makes it easier to work on the muscles, helping to relax areas of tension such as the back, neck or shoulders. This helps ease muscle discomfort and leaves the body feeling more rested.

Frequently asked questions about candle massage
Can massage candles burn your skin?
No. Massage candles are designed to melt at a low temperature, so the oil applied to the skin is warm and pleasant to the touch. Before applying it, the specialist always checks the temperature to ensure a safe and comfortable experience.
How long does a candle massage session last?
This type of massage helps relax the muscles, reduce stress, improve circulation and deeply hydrate the skin. The warmth of the oil and the scents of the candle promote an overall feeling of well-being and relaxation.
Who is candle massage recommended for?
It is recommended for people who want to relax, release muscle tension or enjoy a moment of well-being. It is also ideal for those who want to improve their skin's hydration while receiving a relaxing massage.
Do you need to shower after a candle massage?
It is not required. The oil used in the massage is usually formulated with natural ingredients that are easily absorbed by the skin. Many people prefer to leave the oil on to make the most of its moisturizing properties.

Me opere el pecho con la doctora Marina García en octubre. Tenía mucho miedo de la recuperación y del resultado final. Ojalá se pudiera dar 10 estrellas en lugar de 5. Muchas gracias por el apoyo, me he sentido segura en todo momento , volvería a elegirla.

Llevaba mucho tiempo planteándome una operación de pecho por el miedo a que quedara poco natural y que se ajustara a mis expectativas. En cuanto conocí a la Dra. Marina, supe que era el momento y que sería ella quien me operara. No me equivoqué. Muchas gracias por todo.
