Essential oils have been used in healing since ancient times. It is a truly holistic therapy bringing about good health by treating the body as a whole rather than treating a single part~ the physical body, mind and spirit of the person are all taken into account.

 

Aromatherapy is a treatment involving the application of essential oils with massage to assist the body's own natural healing process. It aims at treating specific health complaints and can act as a preventative measure against illness and stress. The treatment helps to relax and strengthen the nervous system, while stimulating the elimination of toxins. 

It is a truly holistic therapy bringing about good health by treating the body as a whole rather than treating a single part~ the physical body, mind and spirit of the person are all taken into account.
Essential oils are highly concentrated, fragrant, dynamic and volatile essences extracted from plants, usually by distillation. Each oil has its own properties, and the therapist will assess which oils will best suit your requirements, ensuring an individual approach to each client.

Through aromatherapy and using the essential oils we can improve both our emotional and physical wellbeing. The skin absorbs essential oils; therefore, massage is a very effective way of introducing them into the body. All essential oils are anti-bacterial, anti-viral or anti-fungal. Research has shown that aroma affects our emotional senses. This is because the olfactory nerves pass directly from the nose to the limbic system - the emotional centre of the brain. It is always important to enjoy the smell of the essential oil that we are using, as this will give us emotional balance, so you will always be evolved in the oil selection process.
