What happens in an aromatherapy treatment?
On your first visit we will chat about your general health,
so that I can get a picture of what’s happening both physically
and emotionally. This will help me decide which essential oils
are most appropriate for you. After selecting and blending the
essential oils they will be applied in combination with massage. Please be assured your modesty will be respected at all times. The session
