Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is much more than nice smelling oils…  In fact, some essential oils don’t smell that nice at all! Essential oils are quite literally the essence, or life force of herbs, flowers and trees.  Each oil has its own unique set of therapeutic properties which act on the skin, muscles and circulation, and the bodies systems - digestive, respiratory, nervous, reproductive, lymphatic, endocrine and urinary. When we combine these oils, they are even more potent.

​

Aromatherapy can help anyone.  Professional Aromatherapists will never claim that they can "cure", but we can help alleviate symptoms of many illnesses, diseases and conditions, and help your body to work better with conventional medicine by getting you in to the parasympathetic nervous system, known to many as "rest and digest" rather than "fight or flight".  When in the parasympathetic nervous system, the body can digest, sleep more deeply, lower blood pressure, heart rate and breathing rate, and importantly, recover and heal. So whether your concerns are anxiety, menopause symptoms, skin conditions, long Covid, arthritis, fybromyalgia, depression, insomnia, migraines, period pains, or simple, every day muscular aches and pains - the list is endless - there's something we can do together, with Essential Oils, to support you.

​

My personal areas of interest are:

​

• Womens Health - from puberty through to menopause and everything in between including pregnancy and trying to conceive as well as the general pressures and difficulties women face in every day life 

• Stress, anxiety and depression

• Pain Management - musculoskeletal and neurological in particular

• Terminal illness and end of life care. 

​

However, I am happy to work with anyone post initial consultation, that I believe may benefit from Aromatherapy and Essential Oil Science.
