Tips for Giving Aromatherapy Massages

Article by Lance Compton

Giving aromatherapy massages can be a great gift to give a friend or lover. The best part is that they are not that difficult or expensive to give. In order to give a great aromatherapy massage all you need are scented oils or scented candles. Aromatherapy is really a great thing because the pleasant scents make you feel rejuvenated and recharged.A great massage accompanied with the appropriate ambiance is an experience of a lifetime. There's nothing more enjoyable and exciting then relaxing in a warm ambiance packed with the aroma of aromatherapy oils and some relaxing music. It is also a great idea to have a big towel or a blanket to cover the body parts that aren't being massaged to keep them warm.

Also, it feels good being covered while being massaged. You could even wrap a hot water bottle up in a towel and store it under the person's feet for a really lavish treat. While a person is lying unmoving, he/she produces less body heat, and so the aromatherapist or perhaps the person giving the massage must be sure that the temperature at the body is appropriate. Also avoid cold hands when giving a massage. You can warm your hands up quickly by rubbing them together.

Aromatherapy massage is a gentle therapeutic art ideal for everybody from babies to the elderly. The essential oils influence the autonomous nerves and calm the 'flight and fight' reaction of the body that creates a discharge of destructive stress causing hormones.

In addition, the massage alone effects the circulation of blood, improving the source of nutrients and air to cells; and stimulates lymphatic flow, increasing tissue drainage and strengthens the immune system. Aromatherapy massage is known as one of the best ways to overcome stress and related to stress illnesses.
