Focus on Massage Therapies

An Aromatherapy treatment is a massage therapy using essential oils, each oil having its own specific healing properties that may be used to help treat a number of conditions. Aromatherapy can be of benefit to many people regardless of age. It is a particularly effective treatment for stress and related disorders such as insomnia, headaches, mild skin conditions, pre-menstrual tension and muscular aches and pains. Aromatherapy may ease the symptoms of coughs and colds and mild respiratory conditions and may also be used to uplift the emotions and can be sustaining during periods of stress or chronic illness. Massage may range from gentle therapeutic treatments to deep tissue massage.

Deep tissue massage addresses more specific areas of the body and is effective in easing severe muscle tension.

During your first consultation a full medical case history will be taken together with a note of your current physical and mental wellbeing and expectations and needs from the treatment. Essential oils which will best suit you at that time will be selected, blended and applied in a full body massage lasting one hour.

Aromatherapy is an excellent complement to a wide range of therapies including Osteopathy and Counselling.

Aromatherapy is not advised with certain medical conditions or certain types of medication. If you are currently receiving medical treatment, please check with your GP or Specialist before making an appointment. Should it become apparent that a treatment would not be appropriate, a full refund will be given.
