Relaxation Massage with Aromatherapy
Description
Combining Swedish massage therapy with Aromatherapy: Involves soft, long, kneading strokes on topmost layers of muscles. By relieving muscle tension, Swedish therapy can be both relaxing and energizing. Aromatherapy is the practice of using the natural oils extracted from flowers, bark, stems, leaves, roots or other parts of a plant to enhance psychological and physical well-being. The inhaled aroma from these "essential" oils is widely believed to stimulate brain function. Essential oils can also be absorbed through the skin, where they travel through the bloodstream and can promote whole-body healing. Research shows that aromatherapy can have health benefits including ease stress, anxiety, and depression; boost feelings of relaxation; improve sleep; help improve quality of life for people with long-term health problems like dementia; ease certain pain, including pain from kidney stones & osteoarthritis of the knee; fight bacteria when you put them on your skin; and ease some of the side effects of cancer treatment, like nausea and pain.
