Aromatherapy

** Ladies Only **

Aromatherapy is the holistic and therapeutic use of essential oils to enhance and improve physical and emotional well-being. Essential oils are fragrant, naturally occcurring, volatile liquids extracted from flowers, leaves, seeds, roots, fruits and woods. These oils are used in food flavouring, perfume amd medicines and have been used for thousands of years. Today aromatherapists use essential oils in a variety of ways: massage, baths, creams/lotions, vaporisation, compresses and inhalation.

Massage is probably the most well known way of using these oils. Combining the benefits of essential oils with those of therapeutic massage produces a deeply pleasurable, yet highly effective way of healing. Together they can enhance circulation of blood and lymph, relax and tone tense tired muscles, improve nerve conductivity and promote an overall sense of wellbeing.


Each essential oil possesses distinctive therapeutic properties that can promote health and prevent disease. Supporting and harmonising body and mind, they have been found to increase vitality, alleviate tension and fight infection.

Their ability to calm and uplift emotion and mood is directly linked to the effect of their wonderful aromas and the general link between olfaction (smelling) and the brain. The aroma of the oil is important as the scent can evoke certain reactions including memories and feelings.
