Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is similar to massage, using many of the same strokes and techniques. In addition to this, essential oils which are extracted from plants are blended and used during the massage to promote physical and emotional well being.

A short confidential consultation is conducted at the beginning of each session and oils are selected to suit the needs of each individual client. At the end of the session we will also discuss after care and possible further home use of the oils, such as in the bath or in a vaporiser.

Aromatherapy is well suited to treating emotional and mood related disorders. For the body to be healthy it is clear that the mind must also be healthy. Maintaining well being of the body and mind using essential oils plays a major part of the practice of aromatherapy. It is also important to consider the patient's diet, environment, lifestyle and exercise habits as a part of the treatment.

Aromatherapy can aid in relief of conditions such as:

  • Mood related disorders e.g. anxiety and stress
  • Stiff muscles
  • Low energy and sleep problems
  • Pain from various origins
  • Some skin problems
  • Fluid retention
  • Poor circulation
