Essential oil massage in a few words
The massage with essential oils is based on aromatherapy: each essential oil, diluted in a vegetable oil, brings its properties and its fragrance. Lavender to soothe, ylang-ylang for sensuality, eucalyptus to revitalize: the choice of mixture directs the effect of the massage.
The technique itself is often close to a relaxing massage or a Californian massage. It is the smell, diffused throughout the session, which makes it a special experience.
A massage session with essential oils, step by step
The session often begins with the choice of oil. The masseuse offers you several scents or advises you according to your condition: fatigue, stress, desire for sensuality.
She then heats the oil and massages you with enveloping gestures, giving time for the scent to diffuse. Breathing becomes deeper, which enhances the effect of the oils. At the end of the session, it is advisable not to shower straight away to prolong the benefits.
The benefits of massage with essential oils
Beyond muscle relaxation, essential oils act on mood and the nervous system. Some promote sleep, others energy or the awakening of the senses. The skin also comes out nourished and fragrant.
This massage appeals to lovers of olfactory sensations and to those who want a personalized session. It goes very well with a hot stone massage.
Choosing the right masseuse for a massage with essential oils
Not all masseuses use real essential oils: some just use scented oils. If you are interested in aromatherapy, check that the profile mentions essential oils, ideally organic. Don’t hesitate to ask what scents are offered and to report any allergies. And if you're sensitive to strong odors, make it clear: a light mixture can be just as effective. One last tip: arrive on time, relaxed and rested. A good massage begins even before the session, with the time you give yourself to really enjoy it.
