AROMATHERAPY
|
The
word aromatherapy means 'treatment using scents'.
This type of treatment refers to a branch of herbal
medicine using concentrated plant oils (essential
oils).
The
basic concepts of aromatherapy are to improve physical
and emotional health and restore balance to a person
as a whole. In herbal medicine, treatments are taken
internally but essential oils are inhaled or applied
directly to the skin.
Aromatherapy
is not just concerned with the aroma affecting the
mind and body but also how essential oils alter
the bodies' chemistry, support body systems and
improve moods and emotions. The most effective way
is through massage, manipulating soft tissue can
release tension, promote circulation, and
improve lymph drainage thus expelling toxins and
restoring a balance of health. Aromatherapy is a
safe inoffensive method to restore the bodies' natural
defences and normalise the dominant functions.

Facial
Aromatherapy
oils are blended to the clients individual skin
type. Hot towels are then dipped in the oils and
placed on the face to open up the pores and allow
them to infuse into the skin. Finished off with
an aromatic massage to detox and cleanse the face.
After
treatment, the skin will look livelier and any damage
to the skin, will be greatly improved.
