What is aromatherapy massage?

Aromatherapy massage combines essential oils and massage to help to relax you while boosting your immune system. Essential oils are also applied (or prescribed) using other methods, such as vaporisation and steam inhalation.

Aromatherapy is excellent for minor conditions related to stress and anxiety. The general antiseptic and immune stimulant qualities of some essential oils render aromatherapy an ideal preventative therapy too.

During your consultation your practitioner will introduce you to certain essential oils usually by smelling their aroma.

Your massage treatment may last up to an hour. Although full body massage is usually applied, this can be modified according to your needs, for example, you might feel more comfortable receiving a back and head massage.

How often will I need treatments?

Again, this will vary from person to person and the presenting condition. Accordingly, initial treatments may be prescribed weekly then adjusted as necessary.

How safe is aromatherapy?

Essential oils are only prescribed following a thorough consultation. A patch-test is sometimes carried out if indicated during consultation. Side-effects are rare when essential oils are applied topically in the correct measure.
