Massages are a great way to relax and de-stress, but did you know that they offer a range of other benefits too?

Essential oils have been used for centuries in a variety of cultures for their healing properties. Today, they are gaining popularity as a natural remedy for a wide range of ailments.

Massage with essential oils can provide several benefits, including relaxation, improved circulation, reduced stress levels, and help to soothe and relax the muscles.

In addition, essential oils can also be used to help improve the appearance of the skin by reducing inflammation and stimulating cell growth as well as providing a sense of emotional wellbeing and supporting the immune system.

When used in combination with massage, essential oils can be a powerful tool for restoring health and balance to the body.

Soothe and relax the muscles and reduce inflammation

Essential oils and therapeutic massage are effective in reducing joint and muscular pain, as well as any inflammation that may be causing discomfort.

Best oils to use: Chamomile, lavender, myrrh, marjoram, rosemary, clary, sage, jasmine and peppermint.

Improve circulation

The movement and pressure of massage can help to increase blood flow to essential organs and muscles.

Best oils to use: Black pepper, juniper, marjoram, rosemary, sandalwood, frankincense and grapefruit.

Reduce stress levels

Essential oils combined with massage can help to relax and relieve anxiety and stress. Massage releases endorphins, which are happy hormones. These hormones are regarded as "feel-good chemicals" because they relieve pain and reduce tension naturally.

Best oils to use: Bergamot, chamomile, clary, sage, jasmine, lavender, marjoram, neroli, rose, and rosewood.

Carrier Oils to use

The carrier oil must be 100% pure and unrefined oil for maximum penetration of essential oils. Some of the best carrier oils to use are sunflower, jojoba, and coconut. Our Massage Oil has all three oils combined for maximum benefit.

• Sunflower – relieves inflamed joints and bruises.
• Jojoba – is helpful for rheumatism, acne, sunburn skin, eczema, and psoriasis.
• Coconut oil- contains antiviral and antifungal properties, soothes tired and sensitive muscles, and improves the appearance of the skin.
