Suitable for Both Men and Women
Aromatherapy is the ancient art of healing using essential
oils. Which combined with body massage can bring about health, healing,
wellbeing & balance. An essential oil is a concentrated liquid
obtained from plants & trees.
The oils heal you holistically; that is to say they treat your mind,
body, emotions, & spirit. Every client is treated with an individual
controlled blend of essential oils which are chosen to suit a particular
complaint and skin type
What should I expect from my First Visit?
Your first appointment with your professional Aromatherapist will begin
with a consultation. It allows the practitioner to determine the underlying
Cause of any symptoms the client may have. It is sometimes necessary
to conduct the initial consultation and assessment at a different time
to the treatment, allowing the practitioner to thoroughly plan an effective
treatment; this could take the form of compresses, massage of a specific
area, home treatments or both. This first visit will also allow the
client to become comfortable with the practitioner. During the consultation
you will be asked about your general health and vitality, medical history
and emotional well being. This detail is necessary because each treatment
is highly individual; all factors are taken into account in order to
determine each person's therapeutic requirements. Naturally all information
will be held in the strictest confidence.
If you are undergoing medical treatment or there are doubts about your
current state of health you will be advised to consult you GP to inform
him or her that you are intending to have treatment. This is done to
maintain the interests of establishing good communications with the medical
profession.
A Brief history of Aromatic Medicine and Aromatherapy
Where does Aromatherapy come from?
Aromatherapy is the therapeutic use of essential oils to relieve nervous
stress, enhance well being, and promote health and vitality.
Essential oils have been used in perfumery, food flavoring and medicine
for about a thousand years. Long before they were first distilled in
Persia, the Ancient Egyptians produced scented oils from frankincense,
cedarwood and other plants - utilized by priests and perfumers alike.
However the word "Aromatherapie" was coined as recently as 1928 - by
French chemist Rene-Maurice Gattefosse.
Aromatherapy gained popularity in the UK as beauty treatment, however
increasing recognition of its therapeutic potential by orthodox health
care professionals has made it one of our fastest growing complementary
therapies.
