What are essential oils? Essential oils are the essence of a plant, a gift from the earth, distilled and prepared for you to bring the power of nature into your home.
Inside many plants—hidden in roots, seeds, flowers, bark—are concentrated, highly potent chemical compounds. These natural compounds are essential oils.
Essential oils give a plant its scent, protect it from hazardous environmental conditions, and even assist it with pollination, among other important functions and benefits.
Why do we use essential oils in our studio? Harnessing the powerful benefits of plant based medicine we are able to enhance your massage experience by calling upon the plants natural ability to assist in increasing circulation, reducing inflammation, fighting harmful pathogens and reducing stress through it's powerful natural chemistry.
