Hot Oil Aromatherapy Massage

 

Aromatherapy is the practice of using essential oils to obtain specific moods, promote healing and ease muscle pain, aches and sprains. When you receive a massage with essential oils, the oils are absorbed into your skin and you inhale the aroma, providing a physical and emotional benefit. Aromatherapy massage is often an effective treatment for numerous ailments. The massage therapist can work with you to make a customized massage oil and  massage pressure based on your needs. Adding warm massage oil and essential oil to the experience with flowing long stroke massage can be blissfully relaxing and wonderfully comforting. This will inspire your mind and let your body float away.

 

Each essential oil has different healing properties. For example, some calm while others energize. Here are some widely used essential oils and their properties:

 

Aches & Pains - Warming blend including clove, sweet birch, rosemary and cypress

Promotes circulation, helps aid tissue recovery and decreases pain.
Specifically designed to promote circulation, this warming blend of Aromatherapy helps aid tissue recovery after physical exertion. Additionally, the unique combination of aromatics are traditionally used to decrease pain in muscles and joints.

 

Anxiety Release - Lavender and chamomile

Eases nervousness, irritability and apprehension.
This relaxing blend promotes a sense of inner peace and harmony while easing nervousness, irritability, and apprehension. Known for their calming properties, lavender, chamomile and vetiver are combined with uplifting aromas of citrus and clary sage. The result of this Aromatherapy technique is pure tranquility.

 

Deep Relaxing - Lavender

Reduces inflammation, calms the mind and promotes restful sleep.
A foundation of patchouli, grapefruit and sweet orange help highlight two unique lavender oils. First, English true lavender is used to both reduce pain and inflammation and act as a mild antidepressant and calming agent. Next, lavender helps support the respiratory system, aid in natural detoxification and promote restful sleep.
