A is for Aromatherapy - a healing art which can be traced back more than 6000 years.
This complimentary therapy is the practice of using naturally extracted aromatic essences from plants - known as essential oils - to balance, harmonise and promote the health of body, mind and spirit.
It can help to relieve some of the symptoms of stress including; skin problems, poor digestion, lack of energy, general aches and pains and anxiety. It can increase vitality and give the immune system a boost and it can also encourage peaceful sleep.
Aromatherapy can be particularly beneficial to those who have long term health conditions as it can help to support recovery during flare ups, maintain optimum health, and promote physical, emotional and mental well-being.
There are many ways to enjoy the benefits of essential oils from a full body massage by a qualified Aromatherapist (the most soothing and relaxing method—which has the added benefit of the human touch), a few drops added to your bath water, or used in a vaporiser.
A simple hand massage is a treat which you can give yourself any day you like and there is nothing quite like soaking your feet after a long hard day using some soothing essential oils.
And if you are feeling stressed out by life, try this tip: take a lemon or a lime, cut it in half and stand it somewhere near to you, so that you can pick it up and get a lovely citrus burst – it really is natures handy pick me up!
