The practice of aromatherapy involves the therapeutic use of essentials oils to promote health and well being. Essential oils are extracted from leaves, flowers, fruits, woods, roots and resins. Each essential oil consists of active complex chemical components, which influence the therapeutic properties.
Aromatherapy has been shown to be effective in treating and managing stress, calming the nervous system and helping to promote relaxation in body and mind. Essential oils can also be used to treat a wide range of complaints such as muscular aches and pains, insomnia, hypertension and arthritis. The integration of Aromatherapy with therapeutic massage creates a powerful sensory experience. Collectively they work directly to improve circulation and aid lymphatic drainage, releasing muscular tension, further encouraging a feeling of peace, serenity and positive state of mind.
