AROMATHERAPY MASSAGE
Therapeutic Aromatherapy is the balancing of mind, body and spirit using natural oil essences to calm and relax mental activity. Essential Oils help to balance the subtle energy flow within the body and can promote a sense of physical and emotional well-being. Many essential oils are excellent for reducing pain and inflammation as well as helping to reinforce the body's immune system by combatting viruses and microbes (many oils are antibacterial and antifungal). Poultices and compresses made with oils assist in reducing inflammation, or localized pain.

Massage is one of the oldest therapies practiced and extremely effective in alleviating musculoskeletal pain, as well as imparting a deep sense of relaxation and feeling of peace. The aroma of essential oils influences the state of mind. The combination of essential oils with massage is a powerful healing modality which can address muscle stiffness, joint pains and peripheral circulatory problems. Aromatherapy massage is a holistic massage, meaning that it works on the whole - body, mind and spirit.
