HOLISTIC BODY MASSAGE
with Aromatherapy
Massage is a proven, effective therapy. A vagriety of entle, yet effective deeply relaxing massage styles are used to suit each Client’s needs. The Practitioner's forearms are used to achieve a gentle and nurturing, soft and flowing, yet deep massage.
Benefits include the release of tension and toxins from tired and aching muscles, plus encouraging the Client to release mental, physical and emotional tensions. This allows deep relaxation and the opportunity to ‘chill out’. The circulation is stimulated, thus carrying oxygen and nutrients more effectively around the body. The lymphatic system is also stimulated, nourishing cells and carrying waste products out of the body, helping defend the body against infection.
Towels are used to keep the client warm and preserve dignity at all times. Clients keep on their lower underwear.
Warm oil is used and Clients can choose to either have an aromatherapy blend or plain carrier oil with no aroma. Also, Clients may choose to incorporate hot Lava Shell massage.
It is important that clients advise of any allergies as this may affect which oils are safe to use in their massage. Eg. nuts, citrus fruits.

Essential oils should always be diluted in a carrier oil before use. They should not be taken orally and be kept out of reach of children and animals. They are highly volatile so should be kept out of sunlight, in a cool, dark place.

It can be done through clothing and in a seated position so is very versatile and often just hands or feet may be treated if apporpriate.
Family or carers often like to be taught an 'm' technique hand massage so that they may help their loved ones.

“I was at my lowest - stressed, depressed, couldn’t relax and couldn’t sleep. Aromatherapy massage is
really relaxing and soothing. I couldn’t believe how much calmer I felt and slept so well. I ended my course feeling relaxed and rested.”
