Essential oils of aromatic plants, trees, herbs, spices, twigs, flowers, leaves, roots, and berries (which have been prized for thousands of years for their healing, preserving, cleansing and mood-enhancing qualities) are used in a controlled manner by qualified Aromatherapists in treatments to improve physical and emotional well-being.

Aromatherapists select oils that are relaxing, energizing, stress-reducing, balancing, etc. Aromatherapy massage is particularly suited to stress-related conditions or conditions with an emotional component. It brings about a sense of well being, and this is done by applying the essential oils to the body-mainly by massage, but they can also be used in baths, compresses, vapourisers, lotions or by inhalation.

If you choose to attend an aromatherapy treatment ensure that the practitioner is aware if you are pregnant, or think you may be pregnant, and also is aware of any complications you may have had or may be experiencing at present. It is advisable to seek recommendations from a qualified aromatherapist before using any aromatherapy oils.
