"The way to health is to have an aromatic bath and scented massage every day" HIPPOCRATES
Aromatherapy is a holistic therapy that involves massaging essential oils into the skin tissues where they help to balance, harmonise and detoxify, restoring the natural defenses of the body, normalising the functions and encouraging regeneration through an elevated sense of well-being. Essential oils are not just very appealing to the nose but medicinal properties in them can be efficient healers and a percentage of the oil actually passes into the blood stream by being inhaled and absorbed via the lungs. This enables the healing properties of essential oils to work their magic, while the wonderful aroma works to calm the mind or lift the spirits. Aromatherapy is the perfect antidote for exam nerves, anxiety and stress before a big day - weddings, meetings, sporting events, etc. and an excellent way to relieve tired or aching muscles and stiff joints
Oils are chosen to suit individual needs and preferences; to relax or stimulate different body systems, to detoxify and to aid in improving various conditions (e.g. dry skin).
