psychological wellbeing, altering feelings and promoting
relaxation and homeostasis.Some smells are soothing and others
stimulating. Essential oils can be applied through
massage, inhaled or added to bathing water.

followed by a gentle and soothing massage.
Aromatherapy may be beneficial in the following conditions:
Important message

Indian Head Massage, Facial Massage, Reiki and Swedish Massage are also available. For reflexology I also incorporate Tradition Chinese Medicine in the foot reading and the development of my treatment plans, so treatment includes stimulation of acupressure points and meridians to rebalance the body's energies.
