Aromatherapy Massage

Aromatherapy is an ancient art of using essential oils. These oils are a concentrated liquid extracted from plants. They are used to treat the mind, body and some would say the soul also. The skin has an ability to absorb certain substances and in this way it is similar to other complementary therapies for example flower remedies and herbal medicine. Combining these principles with the benefits of massage can bring about balance, healing and health in ones life.

As well as being an enjoyable, relaxing and pampering massaage, it is also used to treat ailments including the following:

- Anxiety and Stress
- Asthma
- Back ache
- Digestive problems, IBS
- Eczema
- Headaches and Migraines
- Insomnia
- Low immune system

It works by taking a holistic approach, meaning it treats the whole person by regulating, healing and maintaining the entire being with the use of nature. It is not a 'sledgehammer to crack a nut' approach as much allopathic medicine seems to be.



"The cure of the part should not be attempted without treatment of the whole, and also no attempt should be made to cure the body without the soul, and therefore if the head and body are to be well you must begin by curing the mind: that is the first thing...
For this is the great error of our day in the treatment of the human body, that physicians separate the soul from the body."

Plato
Chronicles 156e

On your first visit the therapist will need to take details of your medical history, diet and lifestyle. The most suitable oil or combination of oils can then be used.

You will be given some private time to undress and to lay on the massage table. There will be a cover to put over yourself. Each body part can be worked on in isolation.

Your therapist will then come back into the room and begin your aromatherapy massage. The massage is relaxing and sensitivity is given to pressure.
