ESSENTIAL FEEL GOODS

Aromatherapy is a form of alternative medicine that uses volatile liquid plant materials, known as essential oils, and other aromatic compounds from plants for the purpose of affecting a person’s mood or health. Scientific evidence is weak and preliminary but mildly encouraging for a limited number of claims.

Essential oils differ in chemical composition from other herbal products because the distillation process only recovers the lighter phytomolecules. For this reason essential oils are rich in monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes, as well as other VOC substances. You can find essential oils in a myriad of aromatherapy products, including massage oil candles.

As a professional masseuse, I am always after customer satisfaction. That is one thing that I value the most, when it comes to my work, so I make sure that I give a good service with every booking I get. I can give different types of massages. I practice Shiatsu mostly, but I also offer Swedish therapy, reflexology, and an aromatherapy massage, if that is what the customer wants.

Among my specialties, aromatherapy is the most popular service I give out. There is just this distressing factor with the massage oils and the lighted aromatherapy candles that I bring along that relaxes my clients even more. That is why I always stock up on my aromatherapy requirements such as aromatherapy candle, incense and oil varieties. I also play soft music while I work, so the customer is 100 percent happy.

Ageing might be a natural body process but your age need not necessarily show through your skin. Here are some effective ways by which you can turn back the time and have a younger looking skin:

1. There are a number of anti-ageing medicines made from natural herbs such as Ginseng, Rhodiola, and Maca. Extracts from these herbs act as a stress suppressant and an immune system booste.
2. Practicing Yoga and meditation along with anti-stress aromatherapy candles can also help release stress, improve blood circulation, boost energy level, and boost the metabolic rate of the body.
3. Regular aerobic exercise can also help tone muscles and thus prevent sagging skin. It is also a good way to develop a good heart and fight high blood pressure.
4. Proper skin care is also a good way to ensure your youthful looks. By drinking lots of water, moisturizing, and ensuring that your skin is clean, you would be able to keep ageing at bay.
5. Watching what you eat can also help keep your skin from ageing too fast.

Candles have long played a part in the day-to-day activities of men. Whether as a wick partially submerged in oil or as a wick covered with wax, candles have been men’s primary attempt to shed light to the world.

Candles came into being more than 5,000 years ago when the Egyptians found that they can use the pilthy core of reeds soaked in molten tallows to create torches. However, it was the Romans who conceived the idea of using wicks.

Scented candles almost made it to the public when colonial women discovered that the grayish green berries of bayberry bushes were able to produce a sweet-smelling wax that burned clean. Unfortunately, the procedure for extracting the wax was so tedious that people soon forget about the bayberry candles.

Candles in this modern day and age are now being used more for romantic evenings, relaxing in a bath or hot tub, massaging, refreshing rooms and general ambience.

Candles today are made essentially from paraffin wax although more and more people are now going for natural candles that are made from beeswax soy wax and palm wax.

Not only do candles come in different shapes and sizes but they are also available in scented or unscented form. You can buy scented candles if you want to relieve stress while unscented candles are more appropriate for people who have allergies against certain smell. 

 There are more than 500 candle fragrance oils available on the market making it easier for people to choose which scent gives them a more relaxed feeling. Candles containing scents from essential oils extracted from Ylang-Ylang, Bergamot, Rose, Lavender,a nd Neroli have been proven to be effective against various types of stress.

2. Make use of essential oils. You can either have a few drops of them in your bath or on your handkerchief. You can also use them with a diffuser.
3. Indulge in some hand and foot massage. Many eastern medicine advocates believe that the soles of the foot correspond to a specific area in your body. A good for massage can, therefore, help ease muscle pains associated with stress.
4. Learn to delegate. Superwoman you ain’t so if you feel like you have bitten off more than you can chew, delegate. There will always be people who would be willing to help you.

The changes in technology has brought before us both good and bad effects. Although it has made doing transactions pretty much easier and faster, it has also contributed to more and more people feeling the stress of living in a fast-paced environment. If you are among those people, here are some ways by which you can relieve stress:

1. Stressed out by work? Stand up and take short trip to the next department. If you can, offer to run errands for your colleagues. This would take your mind off of your work and let you breathe some fresh air.
2. Relaxing music is one good way to relieve stress. This could be any classical or jazz music or just about any slow tune that you have. Make sure, however, that you do not play this too loud.
3. Have some essential oils within your reach. If this is not possible, make sure that you put at a drop or two of your favorite essential oil to your handkerchief. You can then take this out every now and then for a smell.
4. At the end of the day, take extra time for a hot bath or a massage. This would help ease any stress you have accumulated the whole day. If you do not have time for this, at least set aside a day in a month where you can have a spa treatment.
5. Reading a good book before you doze off is also a way to relieve stress. You can even do this while having your favorite aromatherapy candle lighted.

There are more than a hundred ways by which you can relieve stress. The most important thing, however, is to make sure that you take everything in a stride.

One of the more popular alternative treatment techniques has always been reflexology. The primary focus of reflexology is the foot and the hand.

Reflexologists believe that specific areas in your feet and hands correspond to various organs in your body. By applying pressure to this “reflexes,” endorphin is released which, in turn, relieves the body of pain.

If, for example, you are experiencing tooth pain, you can apply pressure to your ear lobes. By massaging the half closest to your head in a downward motion, you are able to desensitize your tooth from pain. On the other hand, if you are experiencing headaches, you can pinch the muscle located near the point where the bone in your thumb meets the bone in your index finger. This area is called Hoku.

Some reflexologists make use of essential oils in treating their clients. This serves as a dual purpose as, aside from relieving you from pain, you also get to be free from stress.

If you would like to do your own reflexology, the first thing that you need to have is a reflexology chart to help guide you on which are you should place pressure on.

Aromatherapy, being a widely utilized method for health treatments, uses essential oils to achieve the best effects on the body. These essential oils are derived from natural plant extracts, are concentrated, and are very effective in producing that healing effect on the body.

If you are quite new to this, and you want to enjoy aromatherapy at home, so that you can also partake of its benefits, you can have an aromatherapy massage. Always remember that you have to dilute the essential oil by using carrier oil before you can apply it directly onto the skin for a massage. Some well-known carrier oils are sweet almond oil, grapeseed oil, and also apricot kernel oil. Once you have already diluted the essential oil, you can just sit back and enjoy that aromatic massage that would relax your senses.

If you love candles, purchasing aromatherapy candles is also one way for you to enjoy aromatherapy at home. However, the essential oils would have a better effect on your body if it is not dispersed through a scented candle or soaps.
