(Newswire.net — March 7, 2013) Minneapolis, MN — Massage in and of itself carries many health benefits such as soothing sore muscles, managing anxiety and depression and restoring range of motion. “I was in a car accident 3 years ago and have received a great deal of pain and stress relief. Julie is amazing in her abilities to go right to the trouble spots. She keeps me moving and pain free, no medications” says B.C from Minneapolis.
However, when combined with essentials oils, the effects of massage can be dramatically increased. The benefits of essential oils are not necessarily limited to relaxation, unlike what many people may think.
There are several different types of essential oils and each one has significant benefits. For example, lavendar is very relaxing but it can also be used to treat insomnia as it induces sleep. It can also be effectively used to reduce muscle pain, backaches, and relieve pain in joints when it is used correctly. Another great benefit of lavender as an essential oil is that it has strong antiseptic properties that can also help in treating skin problems like acne.
“Geranium is another great essential oil that has strong antibacterial properties and can be used to eliminate scars and stabilize hormones in women” says Julie Gramentz of Unwind Within.
Bergamot is an essential oil used by Minneapolis massage therapists for treating depression and reducing stress, while peppermint can be used for reducing headaches and eliminating digestive disorders.
Getting a professional massage using essential oils is definitely a beneficial treatment that is proven to trigger your body’s healing process. One of the best parts about this is that there are so many different types of essential oils you can choose from and they all have amazing scents and benefits.
Essential oils go to work quickly and naturally every time you use them, something that you don’t necessarily get with other types of treatments or medications.
The benefits of essential oils are endless. We encourage you to learn more by attending one of our classes. Classes take place on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of this month, where we will be using oil.
