Aromatherapy is an ancient therapy involving the use of essential oils. This extremely popular treatment enhances wellbeing, prevents illness, regenerates, rejuvenates and is a wonderful way of relaxing, stimulating and cleansing the body.
Because essential oils smell so glorious, it would be easy to imagine that they do little else than charm the senses. This isn't true. Essential oils are incredibly complex and powerful and need to be used carefully.
Sarah Hurst has a wide variety of oils that can be individually mixed to create unique blends. She also offers a free consultation beforehand to ensure that you are given a massage experience to suit you. Alternatively, choose from one of the divine blends below.
| Why have it? | Oils used | A bit about the oils | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stimulate | Feeling sluggish or uninspired by life? All is not lost, this massage will bring the point back to it all. | Lavender, rosemary & lemon | Lavender is a natural anti-depressant, rosemary will physically and mentally stimulate you, and as for lemon (not just for scurvy), this lifting oil will stimulate your digestive and lymphatic system. |
| Relax | Drift away in a bubble of calm. Shut your eyes for a while… relax | Ylang-ylang & lavender | Sedative ylang-ylang removes any anxiety, and lavender, a natural mood tonic will relax the senses. A heavenly aroma. |
| De-tox | Been burning the candle at both ends and need a break? Time to detoxify! | Ginger, thyme & juniper | Ginger helps re-balance the digestive system, thyme eliminates toxic wastes from the body, whilst juniper helps the liver with its arduous task (drinking gin won’t have the same effect!) |
| De-stress | Relieve the stress and tensions of everyday life. Uncurl your toes and stretch. | Chamomile & geranium | Chamomile is calming, helping soothe nerves and depression, whilst geranium is an excellent nerve tonic and can help you cope with both physical and mental problems. |
| Luxury for ladies | This divine Cleopatra blend is utter luxury. Treat yourself, you deserve it. | Rose Maroc & Jasmine | Sixty thousand rose blossoms are needed to produce an ounce of rose oil... Both rose and jasmine are heady, lifting oils, relieving tension and with an aroma to bring out the inner princess in you. |
| Luxury for men | This blend of oils both relaxes and stimulates, to the aroma of woody sandalwood. Definitely for the gentleman. |
Sandalwood & thyme | Sandalwood is a natural sedative to help you unwind, whilst thyme, with its antibacterial qualities, both stimulates the body into action and raises immunity. |
