Aromatherapy Massage -- 5 tips for the best massage effect

Okay, so now you have decided to give your partner an aromatherapy massage. A noble idea, but every noble idea must also be practical. Here are a few things you might want to consider before a personal massage session.


 

1. Eat early
Getting an aromatherapy massage when the body is full will make one uncomfortable, especially when you have to lie on your stomach. Make sure at least an hour has elapsed before getting a massage.

 

WHAT'S UP !



A UK study in 1995 found that massage using Roman chamomile oil was effective in reducing anxiety among cancer patients

2. A warm shower will help
A great way to set the mood. One will feel more relaxed and the pores on the body will be opened. This will make it easy for the body to absorb the essential oils.

 

3. Clean the hands
No aromatherapy massage be satisfactory if the massagers hands are dirty. So, make sure you wash your hand. Keep those fingernails short too, you don't want to hurt your partners back. Massager hands should also be warm before touching the partner.

 

4. Be ready
Play some soothing and romantic music, make the light dimmer, set the air-conditioner to low so that the room will not be cold. Disconnect your phone, turn off the mobile line and light up some candles. Have some tissues ready. In other words, be very prepared because this aromatherapy massage may lead somewhere else.

 

5. Be yourself and enjoy
It should be fun and intimate. Your partner knows that you are not a pro, so just relax and do not try too hard to give your partner the perfect aromatherapy massage. Put a little oil (Mixing Oil) on the fingertips and use a simple and gentle stroking movement. Always push the blood towards the heart.
If massaging the back, avoid the spine. Gently roll the skin between the thumbs and fingers in a movement like kneading dough.
