      Aromatherapy has been considered throughout the century as a remedy that soothes the body and mind. The remedies are said to relieve symptoms from a variety of diseases. In addition, the remedies are to relieve stress, anxiety, nervous tension, and related symptoms.

      About aromatherapy

      Brief history:

      Aromatherapy came from France, that a Frenchman burned his arm, dipped it in lavender oil, and concluded from the results that essential oils and scented oils are healing. The result stopped burning, so there were no apparent scars on his arm. Essential oils and scented oils are aromatherapy oils, which came from living plants. Exceptions include oils that came from swallowtail butterflies.

      The intentions of the oils are to heal the body and mind by relaxing the soul from stress. Some types of oils are intended to produce a romantic mood. However, according to reports the best alternative for using aromatherapy comes from massaging the oils in the meat.

      I have spoken to a masseuse who claims that many of his clients complained, as the oils made them drowsy, or put them to sleep. Consequently, the oils must work to relax the body and mind; otherwise the person does not feel drowsy or sleepy when the oils are burning. The masseuse also mentioned that green oils were prone to relax the body and mind, more than other smells. Now, whether or not this is true would depend on the person and their stress level.

      As for aromatherapy thus creating the romantic mood the fact is through the years candlelight dinners, candlelit areas etc. have created a romantic atmosphere for many. Therefore, we can assume that aromatherapy can also create a romantic atmosphere. Romantic oils include jasmine. Still, a selection of aromatherapy oils can work as a romantic spark.

Oils are the sensual aphrodisiac oil that produces a romantic mood.

      How are massage oils chosen?

      Distilled oils, which are made from low temperatures and pressure, as well as 100% natural graduated oils are ideal for romantic massages. According to criticisms, however, the oils should be diluted in the carrier oil. Carrier oils are said to affect the skin, causing relaxation. Additional oils include romantic oils. The oils contain cedar wood, cloves, cinnamon leaves, sage, orange, and chamomile.

      Yohimbe oils that include combinations work by increasing erection abilities, libido, and sexual desire.

Eucalyptus oils work to purify, cool, balance, and revitalize the body and mind. Peppermint oils tone, refresh, cool, and promote energy while Rosemary revitalizes, warms, and clears the body and mind. Sweet orange oils elevate your body and mind, as well as produce a joyous and stimulating sensation. Geranium lifts, balances, stabilizes and relaxes the body and mind.
