Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is the systematic use of essential oils (concentrated plant extracts) in holistic treatment (usually non-intrusive massage) to restore and maintain vitality, good health and emotional well-being.

Our aromatherapists are all trained in the highly acclaimed Micheline Arcier method of aromatherapy massage treatment, which is considered to be one of the most effective and relaxing forms of aromatherapy massage. It is very much a results-driven therapy being an amalgamation of polarity therapy, Swedish massage, manual lymphatic drainage techniques, acupressure, etheric clearing and energy balancing.

Aromatherapy is also a means of preserving health and avoiding illness by releasing tension, promoting relaxation and perspective, while also boosting the immune system and circulation. It often works extremely well in conjunction with other conventional as well as complementary treatments. Aromatherapy has been shown to be helpful in the treatment of many conditions, for example:

Arthritis and rheumatic pain, back & neck problems, colds & viruses, depression, hypertension, insomnia, menopause and menstrual problems/PMS, migraine, muscular aches, tension & spasms, repetitive strain, pregnancy & childbirth, sinusitis, skin problems, stress & related conditions

N.B. If you have a medical condition, you are advised to book a consultation prior to or in conjunction with your first treatment

Our therapists will advise you on the use of essential oils and other methods you can use at home to supplement your treatments, e.g. baths, inhalations, skin brushing and our exclusive range of natural face and body oils and room fragrancers

Personal Formulations: our aromatherapists can tailor-make a body or facial oil to your requirements but you must have a formal consultation first.
