The Aromatherapy treatment
Aromatherapy is a Holistic treatment which means that the clients mind, body and spirit are taken into account in order to gain the best possible results. Each client’s treatment will therefore be unique.
Before a treatment takes place it is essential to carry out a comprehensive consultation. This will include details of your medical history, current ailments and state of health, stress factors, diet, exercise and medication. This will give me the information to choose the most appropriate blend of essential oils. It is important that the consultation is thorough as there are many essential oils which are contra-indicated for certain conditions such as High blood pressure, pregnancy and Epilepsy. If there are any concerns, you may be asked to obtain written consent from your doctor before an Aromatherapy treatment.
Frequency of sessions will depend on the nature of the condition/s Most find that a weekly or bi-weekly treatment is most beneficial particularly in the beginning.
Aromatherapist and author Shirley Price quotes:
"where stress and depression are a major cause of health imbalance, then in my opinion, a full aromatherapy body massage is the best complementary therapy treatment available. It is also an excellent prophylactic treatment to ensure continuation of health."
