The Art of Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy, also referred to as Essential Oil therapy, can be defined as the art and science of utilizing naturally extracted aromatic essences from plants to balance, harmonize and promote the health of body, mind and spirit.  It seeks to unify physiological, psychological and spiritual processes to enhance an individual’s innate healing process.

During treatment, Aromatherapy can be achieved in multiple ways. First, by diffusing the oils into the room by use of an electronic diffuser which triggers your olfactory senses as you breathe during your session. By stimulating the limbic system (your emotional brain) the oils can have a systemic effect on your emotional and spiritual condition. Additionally, the oils can be applied directly to the skin during your massage. When oils are absorbed into the body, the effects can be immediate and long-lasting. 

Indications for Essential Oil use during massage: sore muscles, chronic pain relief, sinus pressure relief, stress relief, mood enhancement.

At Thera-Touch, we use pure, therapeutic grade oils from Young Living™. Talk to your therapist about your goals for treatment and together you can create an aromatherapeutic enhancement to your session.
