ABOUT ABOUT

Regular massage is one of the most effective therapies for releasing muscle tension and restoring balance to the muscular-skeletal system.  As qualified massage therapists you know that massage alone is very therapeutic.  But when essential oils, which are blended therapeutically with herbal vegetable oils, are added to the therapy, the benefit to the client multiplies enormously without any extra physical strength from the therapist.

Essential oils have a wide range of healing properties including
•    Analgesic
•    Anti-inflammatory
•    Diuretic
•    Anti-spasmodic
•    Hormonal balancing
•    Immune supporting
•    Calming
•    To name but a few

Infused herbal vegetable oils have a huge advantage over vegetable oils as they add to the therapeutic power of the massage and the essential oils.  They increase the strength of the blend without risking any skin reaction.
