COSHH Assessment for Hot Stone Massage Therapists - Completed for Your Business

The oils and preparations used in hot stone massage - often applied to both the stones and the client's skin - contain chemical ingredients that fall under COSHH regulations. Essential oils, fragrance blends, and specialist massage preparations used in hot stone treatments present the same skin sensitisation and inhalation risks as in other massage modalities, and these are increased where products are applied to heated stones as the heat can volatilise aromatic compounds, increasing the inhalation exposure route. || A COSHH assessment needs to address every product used in treatment, including the implications of applying products to heated stones. CompliantDocs generates your assessment from the products you tell us you use.

Applying aromatic oils to heated stones creates a different inhalation risk profile to applying the same oils at room temperature. This specific element of hot stone massage COSHH is almost never addressed in standard therapy documentation. CompliantDocs generates assessment that reflects how you actually use your products.
