The Pleasures of Safe Aromatherapy

Chapter Three: Aromatherapy Today

 

 

Life on our planet is stressful, fast, confusing, and downright hard sometimes. Even with all the technology available at our fingertips, we still don’t have enough time in the day to get to even half of what we intended.


In families both parents must work in order to get close to making their monthly expenses. Businesses are laying people off to save money, while at the same time the workload only gets heavier for those remaining. Sometimes it feels like the harder we push ourselves and the faster we go, the further we fall behind. Pretty depressing picture isn’t it? Time to go to a spa.

Spas

Spas are special places we go to be pampered. It’s all about us! There are vacation spa resorts where you can spend a week or more, day spas where you are coddled and catered to for as many hours as you choose. Then we have mini-spa treatment areas that are cropping up in airports, hotels, office buildings, workout centers, and just about anyplace else you can think of. Even better news is that in many of these settings you can have aromatherapy sessions.


If you’re thinking of taking a spa vacation, you’ll find them in nearly every country in the world, and the majority offer aromatherapy. This ancient healing art has made its way back into global culture in such a big way that it’s hard to find a spa that doesn’t include treatments as well as products to take home.

 

Many spas advertise themselves as places to blend healing with relaxing, although some are actually considered medical spas and have doctors’ onsite to help with specific illnesses or conditions. A great place to check is spafinder.com. This site is full of information on spas all over the world. You will find direct links to those you might be considering so that you can study their programs and prices. Enter “aromatherapy” into their search window and it will bring up lists of those who have practitioners.

 

One interesting place is Tuaca Lea Resort and Spa, located just off Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada. Not only do they offer aromatherapy massage, but when you walk into the spa, the air is permeated with the wonderful, comforting scent of cedar. Maybe you prefer a warmer climate. You may want to check out Journeys End Resort and Spa in beautiful Belize. Their aromatherapy massage is referred to as their “signature treatment” and you have a choice of 30 or 75 minute sessions.
