A busy life filled with daily worries can easily leave your body and mind feeling exhausted. It’s time to give yourself a moment of peace to regenerate energy and restore balance. At NP SPA MASSAGE, we offer the perfect solution to melt away all your stress: the aroma relax massage (60 minutes) – a relaxing journey into the world of aromas and tranquility.
What is an aroma relax massage (60 minutes)?
The aroma relax massage (60 minutes) is a therapy that exquisitely combines gentle, specialized massage techniques with the wonderful benefits of natural essential oils. Unlike strong therapeutic methods such as thai massage or shiatsu, this treatment focuses on creating an atmosphere of absolute relaxation. Professional technicians will use gentle stroking, kneading, and gliding movements all over the body, combined with the pleasant aroma of essential oils to directly affect the nervous system. The result is that both your body and mind are eased, helping you escape from all anxiety and fatigue.
5 Wonderful benefits of the aroma relax massage (60 minutes)
It’s no coincidence that the aroma relax massage (60 minutes) has become a top choice for many people. Below are 5 benefits you will receive after experiencing this service:
- Reduces stress, soothes the mind. This is the most outstanding benefit of this treatment. The aroma from essential oils like lavender, lemongrass, or peppermint stimulates the senses, helping to reduce cortisol (the stress hormone). The combination of massage movements and scents will soothe the mind, bringing an immediate sense of peace and relaxation.
- Improves sleep, combats insomnia. For those who frequently suffer from insomnia, this treatment is an effective solution. Essential oil massage therapy helps the body to relax deeply, making it easier to fall asleep and have a better, deeper sleep.
- Promotes blood circulation, reduces muscle aches. Professional massage techniques help boost blood circulation and release blockages, thereby reducing muscle pain caused by prolonged sitting or strenuous activity. This treatment is especially suitable for office workers.
- Moisturizes and softens the skin. Natural essential oils not only have a relaxing effect but also contain many nutrients that are good for the skin. They help to moisturize and soften the skin, leaving you with smooth, vibrant skin.
- Restores energy, balances emotions. After an hour of therapy, you will clearly feel a positive shift in your energy. Both body and soul are refreshed, leaving you ready to face the next challenges.
The process of the aroma relax massage (60 minutes) for absolute relaxation at the spa
This is a treatment that combines the art of therapeutic massage using gentle, fluid movements and the healing power of pure natural essential oils. The main goal is to relieve stress, soothe the nervous system, reduce muscle aches, and restore energy to the body.
Stage 1: Preparation (About 5-10 minutes before the main 60 minutes begin)
This is an important initial step to get you into a state of readiness for relaxation.
- Welcome and consultation:
- You will be welcomed by the spa staff with a warm cup of herbal tea (ginger tea, chamomile tea…). The therapist will inquire about your current health condition: do you have any aches or pains in any area? Are you allergic to any ingredients? What is your desired massage pressure level (light, medium, or firm)?
- Choosing the essential oil: This is the highlight of the aroma treatment. You will get to choose one of the natural essential oils based on your favorite scent and your body’s needs.
- Lavender: helps with deep relaxation, reduces stress, and supports restful sleep.
- Lemongrass: helps to detoxify the body and reduce muscle aches.
- Geranium: helps to balance emotions and is good for the skin.
- Ylang Ylang: helps to calm the nerves and brings a gentle sense of euphoria.
- Changing clothes and herbal foot soak:
- You will be guided to a private room to change into spa attire and store your personal belongings. The session usually begins with a foot soak in warm herbal water infused with ginger, lemongrass, and mineral salts. This step helps to warm the body, stimulate blood circulation, and serves as a perfect prelude to relaxation.
Stage 2: The treatment (60 minutes)
The therapist will use your chosen essential oil, warming it in their palms before applying it to your body. The massage takes place in a quiet space with soft lighting and soothing meditation music.
Warm-up & Awakening the senses (Minutes 1 – 5):
- You will lie face down on the massage table. The therapist will put the essential oil in their palms, warm it up, and bring it close to your nose for you to take 3 deep breaths. The aroma of the essential oil will help you feel comfortable and relaxed immediately. Gentle, dry acupressure movements are performed over a towel on the entire body to familiarize and warm you up.
Deep massage for the back, shoulders, and neck (Minutes 5 – 25):
- This is the area that most often becomes tense. The therapist will use long strokes, gliding, kneading, and acupressure along the spine, shoulder blades, and the neck area. The movements are performed rhythmically and gracefully, combined with the warmth of the essential oil to soften tense muscle bundles, release blockages, and effectively reduce aches and pains.
Leg and foot massage (Minutes 25 – 40):
- Back side: Massage from the thighs down to the calves and the soles of the feet, focusing on important acupressure points to improve blood circulation and reduce feelings of heaviness and fatigue in the legs.
- Front side: After you turn over, the therapist will massage the front of your legs, helping the muscles to relax completely.
Arm and hand massage (Minutes 40 – 50):
- Stroking movements are applied from the shoulder blades down the arms, finishing with kneading and pressing acupressure points in the palms. This is very beneficial for office workers who regularly use computers.
Head and face massage (Minutes 50 – 60):
- This is the final and most important step for soothing the nervous system. The therapist will use their fingertips to gently knead acupressure points on the head and temples. It concludes with gentle facial massage movements to reduce tension and bring about a feeling of alertness and refreshment.
- The therapist will use a warm towel to wipe off any excess oil from your body.
Stage 3: Conclusion and recovery (About 5-10 minutes after the treatment)
- Quiet time: After the massage concludes, you will have about 5-10 minutes to lie quietly on the bed, allowing your body to slowly “awaken” and fully experience the feeling of relaxation and lightness.
- Enjoying tea and a light snack: After changing back into your clothes, you will be invited to enjoy a warm cup of ginger tea and a light snack (such as jam, biscuits, or yogurt). The ginger tea helps to warm the body from the inside and restore balance after the treatment.
- Post-treatment advice: The therapist will advise you to drink plenty of warm water throughout the day to support the detoxification process, avoid showering immediately after the massage, and keep your body warm.
Who should and should not use the aroma relax massage (60 minutes)
Below is a list of those who should and should not (or should be cautious) use this treatment.
Individuals who are very suitable for the aroma relax treatment
This treatment is especially beneficial for people who are:
- Office workers: Those who sit for long periods, leading to neck, shoulder, and back pain. The treatment helps to release muscle tension and effectively reduce aches.
- Individuals with mentally stressful jobs: Work pressure and prolonged stress cause the nervous system to be constantly tense. The aroma of essential oils and gentle massage movements will help soothe the mind and reduce anxiety.
- People with difficulty sleeping, insomnia, or light sleep: Especially when using lavender essential oil, the treatment helps relax the nervous system, putting the body into a state of rest, thereby improving sleep quality.
- People needing to restore energy: After a tiring work week or a long trip, the treatment helps regenerate energy, bringing a feeling of refreshment and renewal.
- People with a sedentary lifestyle and poor blood circulation: The massage movements help stimulate blood flow, delivering more oxygen and nutrients to the organs, resulting in healthier-looking skin and a stronger body.
- People who want to practice self-care: Simply those who wish to spend time loving and pampering their body and finding balance for their soul.
Individuals who should be cautious or should not use the treatment
Safety is always the top priority. Certain health conditions are not suitable for massage in general and the aroma relax treatment in particular.
Group with absolute contraindications (Should not be used):
- People with a high fever, flu, or acute infections: Massage can increase blood circulation and cause inflammation or viruses to spread more quickly in the body.
- People with open wounds, inflammation, burns, rashes, or fungal infections on the skin: Massaging these areas directly will cause pain, worsen the injury, and risk spreading the infection.
- People with severe cardiovascular disease, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or who have recently had surgery: The treatment can affect blood pressure and the circulatory system, posing a risk to those with unstable medical conditions.
- People with a history of deep vein thrombosis: Strong massage movements could dislodge blood clots, causing a very dangerous blockage of blood vessels.
- Cancer patients: Unless specifically permitted and guided by their treating physician, as massage can affect tumors or areas undergoing radiation therapy.
- People under the influence of alcohol or stimulants: The body cannot accurately perceive and respond correctly to massage pressure, which can easily lead to injury.
Group that needs to consult a doctor and inform the therapist thoroughly (Caution required):
- Pregnant women, especially in the first trimester: This is an extremely sensitive group. Pregnant women should use specialized prenatal massage services performed by trained therapists, avoiding movements on sensitive acupressure points that could affect the fetus.
- People with diabetes: Diabetic patients may have peripheral neuropathy, which reduces sensation. A very light pressure massage is needed to avoid causing bruises or injuries they might not feel.
- People with severe varicose veins: Direct, strong pressure massage on the affected areas should be avoided so as not to worsen the condition.
- People with severe osteoporosis or rheumatoid arthritis: Massage should be extremely gentle, avoiding deep pressure, joint cracking, or twisting movements that could cause fractures or trigger a flare-up of joint pain.
- People with very sensitive skin or a history of allergies: It is necessary to clearly inform the therapist about any allergies (e.g., allergies to nuts in carrier oils, pollen allergies…) to select suitable essential and carrier oils, or a patch test should be performed on a small area of skin first.
