Aromatherapy massage is a treatment known many of the
earliest civilisations including the ancient Egyptians,
Persians, Indians,Chinese, Arabs, Romans and Greeks..
It is a multifaceted healing art that uses essential
oils of aromatic trees, plants and flowers together
with massage to promote health of body and serenity
of mind.Oils are carefully selected and blended according
to each person's individual needs.
The essential oils chosen by the therapist are used
to address the condition presented while also resolving
any possible underlying causes. For instance when addressing
muscle pain a blend of oils will be created that is
designed to relieve tension of the muscles and will
also act upon the client mentally and emotionally to
address the stress or mental pressure that could be
the cause of the muscle tension.
Many oils also have antibacterial, antiseptic, antifungal,
and antiviral qualities. The massage techniques used
are important helping the oils to be absorbed through
the skin and into the blood stream where they are then
transported to all of the bodies systems assisting the
body's natural ability to regulate and maintain itself
on many levels. |
