Aromatherapy treats the whole person, emotionally, mentally and physically, by the use of essential oils obtained from aromatic flowers, fruits, trees and herbs. There are many essential oils to choose from, each having their own unique therapeutic characteristics and therefore having differing effects upon the body. Massage with essential oils combines the therapeutic power of touch with the properties of the individual oils blended, exclusively for your own specific needs. These oils are absorbed through the skin into the circulatory system and also through inhalation of the pleasant aromas.
