  • At your first visit, a client intake/wellness history will be done and we will go over the appropriate forms together. This is usually only done on the first visit. I will explain how the treatment will go, according to your case history and answer any questions you might have.
  • The massage: A blend of essential oils, chosen specifically for you and your needs, will be used as the massage oil throughout the treatment. You will start face down, lying on your stomach. We will begin the massage on the back of your body, working your back, to the top of your buttocks and then the back of your legs. You will then flip onto your back and we will begin a lovely facial massage, followed by your abdomen and the front of your legs. We will end with a foot massage and a restoring, healing energy exchange.
  • Feedback during the treatment is encouraged, and you can request that the session stop at any time, if need be.

  • Various reactions may occur following an aroma-massage session. They are often very subtle, and are usually not recognized by many people as a result of the treatment. Many of the reactions are positive signs that the massage is part of a healing process; other symptoms are indicative of the body’s attempts to return to a state of balance. Symptoms usually last for 24-48 hrs and may include:
    • increased energy, relief from pain, enhanced sleep, more mobile joints
    • tiredness, emotional or physical release (crying)
    • due to elimination of toxins from the body, the following may occur: headaches, briefly enhanced pain followed by improvement, frequent or loose bowel movements, pimples or rash, increased mucus discharge
  • This is a wonderful treatment that feels amazingly relaxing. It works each of your body systems and is designed to help rid your body of toxins and bring the systems back into balance. Every body is different and as such, each person will experience different results. You will likely have different reactions after each subsequent massage, depending on what your body is needing and receptive to. I hope you enjoy it!
