Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils distilled from plants to promote a well balanced healthy lifestyle. The word aromatherapy is derived from two words aroma meaning ‘smell’ and therapy which stands for ‘healing’. Using gentle massage, essential oils are absorbed into the bloodstream via the skin.
Aromatherapists practice holistically (treating the whole person) and will find oils that suit you physically and emotionally.
Some of the conditions that aromatherapy is used for:
Anxiety/stress/insomnia
Headaches
Digestive problems
Muscular aches and pains
Menstrual or menopausal problems
On your first consultation you will be asked to fill out a questionnaire so the therapist can find out which oils you will need at that time for your complete well-being.

I'm a big believer in the healing benefits of touch and I endeavor to treat an individual holistically and intuitively. I trained in Swedish massage, Aromatherapy massage and Reflexology and have also developed a deep tissue style of massage which deals with more persistent or underlying areas of tension which when alleviated can lead to an improved sense of wellbeing and reduced stress. Aromatherapy oils can be very powerful and when combined with deeply relaxing techniques can achieve a state of bliss. Reflexology works by promoting self-healing in the body by freeing up blocked energy to restore equilibrium and is excellent with treating stress, insomnia, headaches etc. I am a member of The Federation of Holistic Therapists.
