​Aromatherapy back, shoulders & neck massage focuses on the use of essential oils to enhance the therapeutic benefits of the massage and offers a multi-sensory experience that can help reduce stress and anxiety. 
​
Aromatherapy has an array of benefits. It’s said to:
· improve sleep quality
· reduce stress, agitation, and anxiety
· soothe sore joints
· treat headaches and migraines
· alleviate side effects of chemotherapy
· fight bacteria, virus, or fungus
· improve digestion
· improve hospice and palliative care
· boost immunity​

I use soft, long, strokes, as well as light, rhythmic strokes, on the topmost layers of your muscles and skin. Aromatherapy massage is a light touch treatment, there is no pummelling or prodding. The sole purpose of this treatment is for the skin to absorb the essential oils to alleviate tension and promote relaxation. 
​
I use different pre-blended aromatherapy oils from Ancient Wisdom which you can smell before I use the oil on yourself. Their products are not tested on animals, ethical sourcing and trading and uses sustainable natural, pure ingredients.
​
I have three different blends:
1) Rosemary, Ginger and Geranium essential oils in pure grapeseed oil,
2) Lavender and Marjoram essential oils in pure grapeseed oil and
3) May Chang and Ylang Ylang essential oils in pure grapeseed oil. 
I prefer to use grapeseed oil because it's nut free and it allows me to perform long, gliding strokes which is ideal for bodywork. 
 
To start the massage, ​I will use a hot towel to put on your back and use gentle compression, using my body weight, to make that first contact with you.  This sets a calming foundation for the treatment.  Starting with compression encourages deeper relaxation, helping you feel grounded, soothed and comfortable.​​​​

​There is growing evidence that massage has many benefits, physical, mental, and emotional.  

​

• Reducing Chronic Pain

Massage helps ease ongoing pain by releasing tension, improving circulation, and supporting the body’s natural healing. Aromatherapy oils can further enhance this by helping to soothe discomfort and relax the nervous system.

​

• Improving Sleep

By calming the mind and body, massage encourages deeper, more restful sleep. Carefully chosen essential oils help quiet a busy mind and promote a sense of peace, making it easier to drift off and stay asleep.

 

• Supporting Osteoarthritis

Gentle techniques can reduce stiffness, improve movement, and ease discomfort in joints affected by arthritis. Aromatherapy oils may also help reduce inflammation and provide additional comfort.

​

• Boosting Circulation

Massage enhances blood flow, helping deliver oxygen and nutrients around the body. Warming essential oils can support circulation and leave the body feeling lighter and more energised.

​

• Relieving Tight Muscles

Massage softens tense muscles and improves mobility. Aromatherapy adds a deeper level of relaxation, helping both the body and mind to fully unwind.

​

• Emotional Wellbeing & Relaxation

Aromatherapy works on an emotional level as well as physical, helping to reduce stress, lift mood, and create a sense of calm and balance—leaving you feeling nurtured from the inside out.
