Aromatherapy
Aromatherapy is an holistic treatment that involves the use of essential oils in a gentle massage, which helps to improve physical and emotional well-being. The treatment normally takes around an hour.
The essential oils are aromatic, volatile oils extracted from plants, which possess distinctive therapeutic properties that can be utilised to improve mood, health, and prevent disease. There are some 400 essential oils extracted from plants all over the world. Some of the popular oils used in aromatherapy today include chamomile, lavender, rosemary and tea tree. The essentials are selected to suit the patient and then diluted in a carrier oil before being massaged into the skin.
