Aromatherapy Treatments

Why Aromatherapy?

Aromatherapy is a gentle therapy using essential oils from plants and flowers that can be incredibly beneficial for both physical and mental wellbeing.

There are over 150 different essential oils, each with their own unique chemistry and therapeutic properties. Their use can help with many of the symptoms that women experience through perimenopause and menopause such as joint pain, anxiety, depression, hot flushes, low self-esteem and confidence, sleep issues and skin issues, and they can safely be used alongside medication such as HRT to help support and alleviate symptoms.

Aromatherapy can be used in many ways - in a bath, in skincare, diffusing oils in the home or workspace, or being absorbed via the skin through massage. Massage also stimulates blood circulation, activates the body’s lympathic system, and reduces fluid retention. It can also relieve stress and help with insomnia and headaches.

We offer a range of aromatherapy face & body treatments at Black Barn; find details below. Booking can be found at the bottom of the page.
