Essential oils cannot be used directly on the skin. Safe pregnancy oils are, therefore, mixed with a carrier oil such as grapeseed for pregnancy massage. Aromatherapy oils can also be used in a bath, as a compress or simply for general inhalation – whichever way you choose to use aromatherapy oils, the physiological and psychological benefits will promote a healthy mind, body and spirit.
Depending on your medical and antenatal history, a personalised blend of oils can be mixed and prepared for you, either to take away, or as an enhancement to a pregnancy massage.
Please bring your handheld maternity records with you; treatments cannot be undertaken without full assessment of your pregnancy at each visit.
