ALL ABOUT AROMATHERAPY

Firstly, what is Aromatherapy?

Aromatherapy is an ancient therapeutic treatment using practitioner grade pure essential oils from plants which enhances your wellbeing, relieves stress and helps in rebalancing your body, mind and spirit.

............................................................................................................................

So what are practitioner grade essential oils then?

Practitioner grade essential oils are complex, aromatic chemical compounds, extracted from the plant’s flowers, leaves, stems, roots, fruit, bark and seeds, which have a pharmacological and energetic effect on your body’s physiology.

When these essential oils with a common therapeutic action are combined, they create a synergistic effect, thereby working more effectively.

Some examples of essential oils commonly used by Aromatherapists include Lavendula angustifolia (true lavender), Pelargonium graveolens (rose geranium), Rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary), Thymus vulgaris (thyme) and Boswellia carteri (frankincense).

My Aromatherapy Treatments

If your life has been going full steam ahead, then my Aromatherapy Treatments will be a wonderful way to rejuvenate your body of its energy, allowing you to take charge of the wheel again.

If you’re experiencing difficult times with the loss of someone or even the loss of a job, home or just going through a change that you’re not that excited about, then my Aromatherapy Treatments will help you cope better with the underlying emotional stresses you would be enduring.

If you're an experienced meditator but your practice has lapsed recently, then my Aromatherapy Treatment will help unwind your mind, cleanse and clear your inner self, moving you to a place of stillness once again, and acting as excellent leverage for you to resume your practice (please refer to my Laughter Yoga and Meditation page for more information).

Or perhaps you are just in need of a little pampering and would like to reward yourself for some goal you've reached. Then my Aromatherapy Treatments are just perfect for relaxing and nurturing you.

What is the Aromatherapy Treatment?

The treatment is a full body massage which utilises the essential oils to help rebalance your body. After an initial consultation, I will design a unique blend of essential oils with the appropriate dilution and massage it into your body. I may also prescribe a special blend to be used between treatments to assist in your overall treatment plan. Full body massage is one of the most effective ways of administering essential oils because it’s distributing the oils over a larger surface area, allowing for greater absorption into your bloodstream.

The style of massage I use is called the ‘Arcier Technique’, which was developed by French Aromatherapist, Micheline Arcier in the 1950s. The beauty of the Arcier Technique is that it combines a number of other massage techniques, such as Swedish, Lymphatic Drainage, Neuro-muscular Acupressure, Shiatsu, Polarity Therapy and Reflexology. All these different techniques assist in the holistic treatment of your body.

The initial treatment takes 1½ hours which includes a thorough consultation and massage. The initial fee is $115. The follow up treatments are 1 hour including the consultation and massage and this fee is $100.

Please note that a cancellation fee of 50% of the service booked apply for late cancellation of less than 24hrs notice.

Should you require any deep tissue massage, maybe you need to try my Remedial Massage…

READ ABOUT REMEDIAL

If you’re suffering from overworked, sore and tight muscles, and need a good, strong massage to smooth out any knots, then this one’s for you.

I will adjust my pressure according to what you like, and use a combination of Swedish, Deep Tissue and Trigger Point techniques to loosen up your muscles, allowing you to increase your mobility and sit, stand and move with more ease.

You can choose between 30, 45 or 60 minute sessions. The fees are $55, $75 and $85 respectively. If your last Remedial Massage was more than 3 months ago, I generally recommend booking in for 1 hour to begin with.

Please note that a cancellation fee of 50% of the service booked apply for late cancellation of less than 24hrs notice.

"Over the last twenty five years I have had many massages for my back and neck problems. I was referred to Tippy by a chiropractor at Arana Hills.
I have now been going to Tippy for quite a few years. I believe Tippy's technique is the best I have experienced. I feel very lucky that I am able to have monthly massages which is very beneficial to the maintenance and well being of my body."
