Massage therapy oils come in various grades and can be made specifically to address almost anything!

Essential oils are the perfect compliment to any type of massage. And with a supply of oils you can make your own massage oil quickly and easily! Or customize for your clients or yourself of course!

One can use a single oil, several oils, or use a professionally made blend to address whatever mood or condition we want to address. Isn't that wonderful?

What are the Benefits of using Essential Oils in Massage?

The first benefit is that the essential oils will enhance the benefits of the massage modality significantly. Essential Oils also improve circulation, detoxification, lymphatic drainage and much more. The benefits of essential oils are well documented as is massage, so one can take advantage of both.

And because essential oils can address emotional and physical issues, it is easy to address both with one or two oils!

What Dilution do I use for the Essential Oils when I am using them for Massage?

Usually 1-3 drops of essential oil to 1 teaspoon of carrier oil is a good rule of thumb depending on the oil and the toxicity of the person. For larger amounts use 10-20 drops in an ounce of base oil.

Also, review the individual or blend page to get additional information on dilutions and how the oil can be used!

You may also want to review the section on mixing essential oils. Several oils combine to provide a synergistic effect; meaning the blend of the oils together is better and more effective than using an individual oil alone.
