These essential oils are usually either massaged into the body,
to be absorbed through the skin, or inhaled by means of vaporisers. They may also be
added to steam inhalations or baths, added to compresses or spread throughout a room
with diffusers. The oils can be blended in creams, shower gels, shampoos, bath oils etc,
for you to use safely at home. We will provide full safety advice and instructions.
The treatment is often used to relieve stress, headaches,
insomnia, tension and pain, and to aid relaxation and general well-being. It's increasingly being used in cancer care and in sports therapy. The treatment can be very effective for digestion problems, for balancing hormones and, combined with massage, can be excellent for managing aches and pains. The oils, when used in massage, will be diluted in a carrier oil, such as almond or grape seed.
I will take a medical history and then determine which oil,
or combination of oils, will be the most beneficial for you. Together we can then
decide on the best form of treatment to meet your needs.
