AromaTherapy

Aromatherapy massage is a type of massage therapy that incorporates essential oils, which are concentrated extracts from plants, into the massage process. The essential oils are believed to have therapeutic properties that can promote relaxation, improve mood, and reduce pain.

During an aromatherapy massage, the therapist will apply diluted essential oils to the skin and massage them in. The oils can also be inhaled by the client. The specific essential oils used will depend on the client's individual needs and preferences. For example, lavender oil is often used for relaxation, while peppermint oil can be used for pain relief.

Aromatherapy massage is a complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) therapy. It is not a substitute for conventional medical treatment, but it may be used as a complementary therapy to enhance well-being.
