The Ancient Egyptians, Romans and Greeks were among the first to appreciate the benefits of
essential oils. The use of aromatic oils reached England's shores around the 13th century,and
when the plague swept Europe during the renaissance period, those who used aromatic oils were
said to survive it, because many essential oils have antiseptic properties. Culpeper's Complete
Herbal (1652) listed medicinal properties of plants, but scientific study didn't start until the
1920's, when the French chemist Gattefosse discovered that essential oils can be absorbed by the skin
and can reach the organs through the body's circulation systems.
Benefits of aromatherapy
Aromatherapy oils can help to promote emotional well-being and good health. Therapists regularly
use around 50 oils to help a variety of conditions. Each oil has different therapeutic properties.
Stone Therapy is an exceptionally relaxing treatment, rooted in ancient therapy practices and used to create balance within the body. Hot basalt and cold marble stones may be used, with the positioning and temperature of the stones tailored to the individual client.
Sports Massage
Sports Massage can be used to treat all minor sports and everyday injuries, before exercise to aid performance and afterwards to ease muscle fatigue and injuries. Treatment may include a course of exercises selected to improve injury or postural problems.
Therapeutic Massage
Therapeutic Massage is widely used to eliminate toxins, relax tired, tense, aching muscles and joints and has a calming and relaxing effect. Although this treatment is often chosen to induce relaxation, it is also widely recommended for the alleviation of minor injuries and psychological benefits.
Tui Na works on energy channels (meridians) and acu-points as in acupuncture, but uses the body instead of needles, to generate and balance the flow of energy (chi). It is a very comprehensive therapy which also works deep into the muscles helping to alleviate muscle/joint problems.
