Aromatherapy in Hove
Using sustainably sourced organic essential oils to tailor a bespoke massage to suit your health and wellness needs.
What is Aromatherapy?
The true birthplace of essential oils goes back as far as Ancient Egypt, where plants were cultivated for their oils which were used for mainly medicinal purposes, as well as cosmetics and even religion. Many of these essential oils are used in aromatherapy today.
How does it work?
Aromatherapy improves our general wellbeing (which is always a good thing right?) In simple terms, each individual essential oil has specific properties which can be used to assist our bodies ability to balance and heal itself. This can potentially improve hormonal balance, memory, stress levels, blood pressure, breathing, emotions and our heart rate.
The chemical constituents and aroma of each of these oils stimulate our bodies and improve our general wellbeing through the combination of a relaxing massage and a blend of oils chosen carefully for a person’s individual needs. The massage and specific oil blends supports the body on a physical, emotional and mental level.

“I came to see Claire to see if she could help me relax and ease some of the terrible tension I was suffering with in my shoulders. Working long hours as a midwife for the NHS means I often do late shifts which can build up a lot of stress on both my body and mind. After my first Aromatherapy session with Claire I was hooked I slept so deeply that night and felt refreshed, the next day and my shoulders were so relaxed and tension free. I also love the body oil she made for me it smells divine and really helps warm my muscles and helps ease my achy shoulders in-between visits.”
