Holistic Aromatherapy Massage

Aromatherapy is an age old form of alternative care.  When combined with the art of massage, you can enjoyably experience the tantalizing scents from aromatherapy oils that fill the air.  The aromatherapy oils are massaged deep into your muscles to help the body heal itself from a wide variety of sicknesses.

How Aromatherapy Works

The science behind aromatherapy is that the body can better achieve a state of harmony and balance with the use of plants, flowers, herbs and other natural substances.  The process by which aromatherapy is employed is by applying the extracts from various plants, herbs and flowers to the body in the form of a therapeutic oil.

Inhaling the scents of aroma therapeutic oils can help you to ease uncomfortable symptoms.  That brings me to the next level of aromatherapy …holistic aromatherapy massage.

Benefits of A Holistic Aromatherapy Massage

Aromatherapy used during massage is meant to help alleviate symptoms from common conditions such as muscle aches, headaches, digestive problems and sinus decongestion.  However, it’s not meant to replace a doctor’s care for more serious conditions.

How It Works A Holistic Aromatherapy Massage combines the healing touch of massage with the healing powers of the extracts from natural plants and herbs.  When the extracts from the plants and herbs are massaged into the skin, there is a positive effect on the body.

In order for the plant extracts to be delivered into the skin, they need a carrier oil.  There are no chemicals in the carrier oil but they are required to safely and effective administer essential oils.  Some common oils used as carrier oils because of their gentleness are:

• Almond oil

• Calendula oil

• Jojoba oil

• Sunflower oil

Seeing a Professional Aromatherapist

While you can learn how to practice a aromatherapy massage at home, visiting an aromatherapist can be very beneficial.  The aromatherapist would complete a health history and profile to determine the choice of oil for your massage needs.  For example, peppermint essential oil is commonly used to treat headaches.  I’ve actually had quite a bit of success treating sinus headaches alternatively with therapeutic grade peppermint essential oil.

Some additional essential oils and their uses are:

• Eucalyptus Essential Oil for tired, aching muscles

• Lavender Essential Oil to promote relaxation and facilitate sleep

• Ylang Ylang Essential to keep energy levels up

• Tea Tree Essential Oil to decongestant clogged sinuses

Before Your Massage

A few points you need to heed and be aware of before undergoing a holistic aromatherapy massage session:

• If you have any allergies to medicine, plants or food, let the massage therapist know before undergoing treatment.

• If you are pregnant, consult a doctor before engaging in aromatherapy massage.

• If you have a blood clotting issue, you should not participate in any type of massage because the pressure from the massage could cause a forming clot to dislodge.  This could lead to complications and even death.

What To Expect

Finally, here’s what you can expect to experience during an aromatherapy massage treatment performed by a professional massage therapist:

• Based on your condition, a carrier oil is blended with the appropriate essential oil extracts.

• The aroma from the essential oils fill the room so that you begin to relax

• During massage, the oils and all the benefits they carry with them penetrates your skin

• If you are under stress, the aromatherapy massage will help provide stress relief

Everyone can benefit from getting an aromatherapy massage.  That is assuming you don’t have any of the pre-existing conditions mentioned.

The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs recommends Lavender flower for ‘Internal: Mood disturbances such as restlessness or insomnia, functional abdominal complaints (nervous stomach irritations, Roehmheld syndrome, meteorism, nervous intestinal discomfort). For balneotherapy (Bath): Treatment of functional circulatory disorders.’ As Grieve puts it, of Lavender’s household uses, ‘Dried Lavender flowers are still greatly used to perfume linen, their powerful, aromatic odour acting also as a preventative to the attacks of moths and other insects. In America, they find very considerable employment for disinfecting hotrooms and keeping away flies and mosquitoes, who do not like the scent. Oil of Lavender, on cotton-wool, tied in a little bag or in a perforated ball hung in the room, is said to keep it free from all flies.’ ‘Not only are insects averse to the smell of Lavender, so that oil of Lavender rubbed on the skin will prevent midge and mosquito bites, but it is said on good authority that the lions and tigers in our Zoological Gardens are powerfully affected by the scent of Lavender Water, and will become docile under its influence.’ Lavender is an effective herb for headaches, especially when they are related to stress. Grieve’s classic ‘A Modern Herbal’: ‘Lavender was used in earlier days as a condiment and for flavouring dishes ‘to comfort the stomach.’ Gerard speaks of Conserves of Lavender being served at table.’ ‘It has aromatic, carminative and nervine properties. Though largely used in perfumery, it i

All in My Head $3.77 At the age of twenty-four, journalist Paula Kamen’s life changed in an instant. While putting in her contact lenses, the left lens set off a chain reaction, igniting a constellation of nerves that radiated backwards from behind the surface of her eye. The pain was more piercing than with any other headache she had experienced. More than a decade later, she still has a headache–the exact same headache. From surgery to a battery of Botox injections to a dousing of Lithuanian holy water, from a mountain of pharmaceutical products to aromatherapy and even a vibrating hat, All in My Head chronicles the sometimes frightening, usually absurd, and always ineffective remedies she–and so many like her–was willing to try to relieve her pain. Beleaguered and frustrated by doctors who, frustrated themselves, periodically declared her pain psychosomatic, Kamen came to understand the plight of the millions who suffer chronic pain in its many forms. Full of self deprecating humor, and razor sharp reporting, All in My head is the remarkable story of perseverance, acceptance, and patience in the face of terrifying pain.
