That's why aroma therapy massage at Orient Spa has become a favorite for both international and local guests. More than just soothing natural scents, the way we combine sophisticated massage techniques with a tranquil atmosphere helps your body relax and your mind settle from the very first moment. Let's find out why this treatment is a "top pick" at Orient Spa!

What is aroma therapy massage?

Aroma therapy massage is a therapeutic method combining massage techniques with plant-based essential oils instead of using regular oil in regular massages. These essential oils are diluted with carrier oils to work safely and effectively on the skin. During the treatment, the aromas interact with the nervous system while massage techniques ease muscle tension, creating a comprehensive relaxation on both body and mind.

Common essential oils for this treatment are lavender, lemongrass, sweet orange, tea tree, cedarwood, peppermint, and chamomile, each offering distinct benefits.

Benefits of aroma therapy massage

Massage techniques combined with aromatherapy oils bring plenty of benefits:

• Relieves muscle pain and fatigue: Techniques like acupressure, stroking, and kneading help ease tight muscles and pain.

• Improves blood circulation: Massage boosts blood circulation, delivering oxygen and nutrients more efficiently.

• Reduces stress and anxiety: Scent therapy can stimulate the production of endorphins that can calm the mind and reduce anxiety effectively.

• Improves sleep quality: Using aromatherapy oils for sleep, such as lavender or chamomile, supports better sleep.

• Strengthens immune system: Aroma massage using essential oils carrying antibacterial and antiviral properties like tea tree, lemongrass, or peppermint can strengthen the immune system and protect the body from illness.

• Boosts concentration: The scents of orange and lemon in aroma massage help refresh the mind and enhance focus and clarity effectively.
