Massage Oil
Why Do We Use Scented Massage Oils?
We use scented massage oils because they add to the pleasures of a massage. The oil helps the fingers find just the right amount of pressure to be applied. It also reduces the amount of friction on the skin as well. Endorphins are released through the heat of the oil, which helps the body unwind and relax after the stress and pressures of the day.
Scented massage oils are made with Carrier Oil. These oils are vegetable oils, which are used to dilute the concentrated Essential Oils. The carrier oils help to slow down the evaporation process, which makes it easier for the massage oils to penetrate the skin during the actual massage itself. If oil used during the process does not contain good carrier oil then it could breakdown during the kneading of the patient's skin.
In order to prepare Your Own scented massage oils you will need to mix a small amount of essential plant oil with a larger amount of a carrier vegetable oil. The amount of Essential Oil, which acts as the aroma for the massage oil, is generally about twelve drops from a dropper into approximately two ounces of carrier oil. There are no preservatives added, so if you are making your batch, only make it when you need it. You can keep them in the fridge to prolong their life.
For anyone that truly enjoys a massage, good scented massage oil is the icing on the cake. You can find a plethora of oils on the internet or in specialty shops around the country. For the adventurous and creative minds, you can make your own massage oils. In fact, you can find many different recipes or combinations on the internet as well.
We will wrap this up by saying that a good massage using scented massage oils is an excellent way to help relieve stress and help us to relax. A good oil aids in the lubrication of the skin thus preventing friction from the hands.
