AromaTouch: Your Nervous System Reset
A clinical approach to massage | Suitable for every body
Why aroma?
Aromatherapy has been used for centuries.
Inhaled molecules travel through your nose and stimulate the olfactory receptors, sending direct signals to the brain's limbic system (which controls emotions, memory, and stress responses). Essential oils applied via skin massage are absorbed into the body and used as a complementary practice alongside conventional care.
Why light-touch?
Unlike deep-tissue or firm massages, a light-constant-touch shifts the body out of a stressed state and activates the parasympathetic nervous system by signalling it’s safety and allowing the organs to enter into a restorative state.
Hormonally, physical contact triggers the release of oxytocin (the love/connection hormone) and reduces the production of cortisol (the stress hormone), and this shift in chemical balance instills a deep sense of emotional security, calm, and overall well-being.
What will I experience?
The oils used in the AromaTouch Technique have been specifically chosen to a) reduce stress, b) boost immunity, c) soothe the physical body and lymphatic system. As a result many people experience a decreased cardiovascular strain, such as a reduction in heart rate, lowering of blood pressure, and slowing down of breathing rhythms.
You may not quite fall asleep during your treatment, but you’re like to visit the brink of subconsciousness, allowing whatever is stored in the mind to come forth, process, and as such reduce the effects of that busy mind you’ve been experiencing.
What happens afterwards?
It takes 22 seconds for the oils to enter your bloodstream, 2 minutes to enter the brain, and within 20 minutes they’ll be in every single cell within your body. Clever, hey!
But what happens then? They work with the intelligent body systems to know just how much of each should work in all the areas across the body, to bring us into homeostasis. That effect can happen long after you leave the therapy room.
