The clocks have gone back the nights are getting longer and darkness comes all too soon bringing
the colder weather and for some people this change also brings a feeling of sadness.
The dreary cold grey skies start to reflect our mood and leaves us feeling SAD for no apparent reason throughout the day (although this is known as Seasonal Adjustment Disorder or SAD for short). It also brings aches and pains as joints start to stiffen and muscles tighten up against the cold as we long for warmer, brighter weather.
This is where Aromatherapy can help.
‘Most studies, as well as clinically applied experience, have indicated that various essential oils, such as lavender, lemon and bergamot can help to relieve stress, anxiety, depression and other mood disorders. Most notably, inhalation of essential oils can communicate signals to the olfactory system and stimulate the brain to exert neurotransmitters (e.g. serotonin and dopamine) thereby further regulating mood’
Muscles and joints also benefit from Aromatherapy massage as the combination of gentle manipulation of the soft tissue, combined with the stimulation of essential oils on the olfactory senses help both body and mind.
Aromatherapy massage can also benefit people who cannot switch off their brain or who suffer from an overstimulation of the nervous system by calming the mind and soothing the nervous system of the body allowing your body to heal and repair itself.
Aromatherapy oils can be massaged into the body or diffused in the air to have an effect. The oils affect the mind and have an effect on the body long after the massage.
