Aromatherapy massage uses essential oils from plants to improve both mental and physical well-being.

Think Roman chamomile, geranium, lavender, tea tree, lemon, ginger, cedarwood, and bergamot. Not only do they produce wonderful smells, but each one has a different chemical composition that affects how it’s absorbed and how it impacts our body.

In concert with massage techniques, aromatherapy treatment eases anxiety and also offers relief from depressive symptoms. It has also been shown to help with treating insomnia, nausea, and pain.

Suffering from menstrual cramps and looking for solutions? A double-blind clinical trial discovered that the therapy is great for easing discomfort. Participants found their pain level was reduced as well as the duration of cramps. In fact, the duration of the cramps decreased from 2.4 days to 1.8 days!
