Aromatherapy

Asclepiades advocated “the use of massage, music and perfume as soothing and healing agents”.
Greek physician, Second century BC

Aromatic plant extracts have been used medicinally for centuries and aromatherapy harnesses their value to promote health and well-being. Envelop yourself in the fragrant essential oils blended specifically for you during treatment. You will find aromatherapy is an effective antidote to the hectic and stressful pace of modern life.

Essential oils are blended for each treatment to suit the client's likes and treatment goals. Although we see the oils in many everyday products they are not 100% safe in all circumstances. They are best left in the safe hands of a qualified Aromatherapist, who has studied their chemistry and can blend with safety, confidence and a knowledge of what works well.

My own love of fragrance stems from childhood – a polished wooden floor in school assembly, Sunday roast, Coty L’aimant (mum’s favourite perfume). Familiar and comforting, I am instantly transported by certain scents to happy and safe places. Scent is a quick reacting sense and instantly recalls memories, happy or sad.

Essential oils encapsulate this involuntary sense and when combined with massage become aromatherapy, a perfect synergy of two senses – smell and touch.

The Therapeutic Massage Clinic uses bespoke oils for all treatments individually blended by Helen.
