Start the year with a massage with essential oils

Massage with essential oils

The massage with essential oils is also known as aromamassage and has energetic and healing power. Being performed with essential oils, the benefit lies not only in manual treatment but multiplies due to the released essences that penetrate the skin. The nature of the essences guarantees this power: it is a pure synthesis of light and heat.

These substances do not come into contact with the terrestrial sphere of the plant, they evaporate easily when they come into contact with the air, they burn and originate in the light.

By dispersing outside, they can be seen as "spirits" in full transformation, if we interpret in an alchemical key. In botanical terms, their formation starts from a simple basic molecule which is emiterpene . Reagent molecule, which needs bonds and in the case of essential oils it is pyrophosphoric acid. The essences are formed thanks to light and heat, one would say.

And sorry if it is little, we beings of light returning to the light.

Benefits and indications on the use of essential oils for massages

The massage combined with aromatherapy allows absorption through two main routes: the olfactory system and the skin . Through the sense of smell they come directly to the nervous system and to the neurovegetative aspect, with a strong impact on the psyche and mood. As for the skin, the action passes directly to cells and tissues because of a friction that can occur using pure essential oil or diluting it in carrier oil. The tissues are revitalized, toned.

Of course there are some tricks, especially if you practice self-massage: use quality oils, do not take them by mouth. Do not apply them pure on the skin (there are only a few cases of delicate oils like tea tree oil and lavender), do not expose yourself to ultraviolet rays or lamps after applying essential oils on the pelel, avoid contact with the eyes, do not use them on anogenital area and in the ear canals. Keep them away from heat sources and away from children.

The use of essences through massage and more

The essences have in them the maximum potential reached during the plant development phase. When a masseur or masseuse applies them, he is not just smearing. These essences are inserted at the level of the disturbed energy currents, they are reported in vibratory agreement.

While being massaged, thoughts are educated, breathing resumes its natural cycle. It is not different from the effects of a meditation. In principle, if you choose a treatment in the morning you are preparing the body to wake up, if you do one in the evening you will go to re-harmonize.

At best, those who are good at massaging usually have other multiple qualities that make them resemble a sort of psychologist who is attentive to listening or a skilful card-jitter who knows when to use jokers, knows how to create, open, close, let go go, lift, drag, consecrate, cuddle. However, you are looking for such a therapist, because there are around.

In this sense the text by Francesco Padrini, piscologist, psychotherapist, specialized in psycho-corporeal therapies, psycho-sexologist is very interesting.

Starting from the fundamental notions of bioenergetics, in his text "The great book of massage with essential oils", Padrini frames the types of people that can happen under the hands of the masseur. The bioenergetic massage, combined with the use of essential oils, will work on these blocks. From the cerebral typology, which needs to be more consciously inside the body than the dependent one, which needs warmth, love, pampering, up to the subdued typology, with which one works at the level of deep tensions, and the dominant one, which tends to hold back the energy in the upper part of the body. Ultimately, the rigid types, which have a balanced but not very soft structure and need to soften and relax, increase the respiratory capacity.

If you are not thinking about massage, we suggest other ways to use the essences:

Bathroom, shower. Be careful never to pour dermo-aggressive oils directly into the water, but dissolve them in a suitable excipient that is also oily;
Tablets or compresses;
Diffusion in the environment;
Clutches, flaws and inhalations;
Internal irrigation;
Footbaths, hand baths, sitz baths;
Sciacqui and gargle.
