AROMATHERAPY
Aromatherapy is an ancient healing treatment dating back over 5000 years. It uses essential oils to promote health, beauty, and well-being in mind, body, and spirit. These natural plant extracts are applied and absorbed through the skin or they can be inhaled. Aromatherapy is both an art and science. Blending oils is a beautiful process but it is vital to have the knowledge and understanding of each oil’s chemical and therapeutic properties to create a safe, strong, and effective synergistic blend.
Aromatherapy Massage combines the two therapeutic practices of essential oils and massage to create impactful results. This treatment is a natural alternative to help with conditions such as muscle pain, stress, anxiety, depression, insomnia, circulatory problems, and hormone imbalance.

Treatment Process
The session will start with a consult where I will find out more about your life, your stressors, and the areas in which you are suffering and need relief. This will help us form a treatment plan that will target your wellbeing needs and goals. From there I will ask you to take a few deep breaths to ground yourself, set your intentions and begin the process of focusing inwards.
The typical treatment is a full body, 1-hour massage including back, neck, chest, arms, hands, legs, and feet. The treatment length and areas of focus can vary depending on your preferences and needs such as adding facial or abdomen massage.
Swedish style massage techniques are used which involve alternating between gentle and more intense pressure, depending on the treatment plan discussed before your massage. The addition of a specific essential oil, or a blend of oils, offers healing and stress relief by stimulating the lymphatic, circulatory, nervous, and musculoskeletal systems. Each blend is scientifically and thoughtfully crafted to address a specific physical or emotional need. For example blends can be customized to build up your immune system or to be soothing, rejuvenating or sedating. I create blends based on your requests and well-being needs. As the oils are absorbed and inhaled, they are distributed through your body addressing your specific imbalances. I recommend leaving oils on overnight as this allows for maximum absorbency through the skin and offers the benefit of inhalation all night long!
Oil poultice’s are available for conditions relating to digestion and back pain at an extra rate. Rates vary depending on custom blend recipe. Please connect for more information on this warm and soothing treatment addition.
