Aromatherapy is an unusual combination of science and art. Essential oils, derived from plants are extracted for their therapeutic properties. The beautiful natural oils can be from bark, leaf, stem or petal etc. The balance of chemical constituents within essential oils, provide them with their very different specific uses.
Once diluted, essential oils are applied to the skin using soothing massage techniques. The aromatic molecules pass directly through the skin and are absorbed by the body fluids and then circulated around the body in the blood stream.
Essential oils can be either stimulant or sedative in nature. They enrich sensory experience and their aromas can be useful in stimulating memory. The blending of essential oils can create beautiful unique smells whilst addressing various conditions.
At Feelgood Focus we ensure all blends are blended at safe percentages. We take into consideration any relevant contra-indications each of our clients may have relating to specific oils.
Diffusing essential oils is a way of gently influencing the atmosphere in a room and awakening the olfactory system. When carrying out our treatments, this is something we like to do. Oils are effective through both inhalation and absorption. Massage and aromatherapy compliment each other beautifully, creating a sensory rich, luxuriant experience.
