What is Aromatherapy Massage?

During an aromatherapy massage, you inhale the essential oil molecules or absorb them through your skin. They aim to improve well-being and reduce stress. The power of essential oils are twofold, initially through inhalation, you’ll be relaxed by their lovely calming smell, also they penetrate the skin and move quickly into your bloodstream, loosening any muscle pains and working on any suppressed tension you’ve got.
