Aromatherapy is a holistic, caring, hands-on therapy that seeks to induce relaxation, to increase energy, to reduce stress and to restore balance to mind, body and soul. This is achieved through the combination of massage and essential oils that is uniquely special and effective.

Stress is never purely physical or emotional; it is a phenomenon involving body, mind and feelings. Many illnesses originate in the mind and a holistic approach is necessary for healing both body and mind.

Essential Oils invite one to appreciate the beauty and wonders of creation, providing us with inner contentment

WHAT DOES HOLISTIC MEAN?
Holistic means whole and refers to the fact that mind, body and emotions are all inter-connected. Holistic massage is sensitive to the fact that physical tension may represent unexpressed feelings or reflect an individual thought patterns.

ESSENTIAL OILS
These oils are concentrated essences extracted from flowers, herbs fruits, seeds and trees. They have both a physiological and psychological action on the body and directly affect your mood. They are all anti-viral and anti-fungal. Some are stimulating, others relaxing. The healing properties of the oils combine with the therapeutic value of massage to create one of the most relaxing and enjoyable anti-stress treatments available.

Essential Oils stimulate the immune system, partly by stimulating the production of white blood cells. They diffuse through the skin and into the body, they also penetrate through the walls of the blood vessels and body tissues. Although they do not remain in the body for more than 4 hours, they trigger off a healing process that may continue for days or even weeks. They are dynamic because they act on more than one level, influencing organs, functions, tissues, fluids, cells and subtle energy. Essential Oils are also dynamic because they are synergistic.
