At Aroma Therapie Suite, every aromatherapy massage begins with a short consultation. I will ask how you are feeling, what has brought you in, and what you are hoping to take away from the session. I use high quality essential oils that are never pre-blended — instead, I create a personalised blend for you based on your individual needs on that day. Feeling flat and in need of a lift? I will choose something uplifting and energising. Carrying tension and stress? Something grounding and calming. Struggling to sleep? Something to help your nervous system settle. The oils are diluted in a carrier oil and worked into the skin during your massage, which typically focuses on the legs, back, shoulders, neck, scalp, face, abdomen and arms — though this can be adapted to suit you.

The short answer — come as you are. There is no dress code at Aroma Therapie Suite and no special preparation required. Here is a quick guide depending on what you are coming for: Self-care workshop — comfortable clothing you can relax in. You will not need to remove anything, though you may want to avoid your best outfit in case of a rogue drop of essential oil. Consider yourself warned. Reflexology — comfortable, loose clothing and clean feet. That is genuinely all. No need to book a pedicure first — I am a nurse, I have seen everything. Aromatherapy massage — comfortable clothing you can easily remove the top layer of. Avoid heavy perfume or strongly scented products on the day as these can interfere with the oils. And if you can resist the urge to shower the moment you get home — the oils keep working for several hours and it would be a shame to wash away the benefits quite so quickly. Please remove any makeup in advance of your appointment. Most importantly — leave a little time either side of your appointment if you can. Rushing in or rushing straight back out afterwards is the only thing I would gently discourage.
