    What Is an Aromatherapy Massage?

    Aromatherapy massage is a method of massage therapy that uses certain essential oils and scented candles for the purpose of releasing stress with the use of beneficial scents. This practice dates back to the Ancient times where they use herbal extracts as ointments on patients as they believe that these certain herbs have healing properties when inhaled. Although unlike today where our modern massage therapists can use scented candles, the ancient people only have the herbal extracts applied as ointments on the body of the patient although there are studies indicating the burning of herbs.

    How it is done

    During an aromatherapy massage session, the room is lit with certain scented candles that aid on whatever purpose the massage therapist need. There are scented candles that help in calming, energizing, uplifting the patient and many more. The massage therapist also prepares the essential oils that he or she will be using on the patient throughout the whole duration of the massage therapy session. Like any other massage therapy, an aromatherapy massage also requires the patient to take off his or her clothes and lie down on the padded massage bed. The massage therapist will then apply the prepared essential oil on the skin of the patient and slowly begins to massage as he or she conditions the body of the patient for the massage therapy. Various massage strokes will then be used on the body of the patient to relieve stress and muscle pain. After the session, the patient will put on his or her clothes and will be escorted as he or she exits the room.

    Just like a Swedish massage therapy or any other type of massage method, the same preparation is made in order to enjoy and have a comfortable massage therapy session.

    Honey – The World’s Best Wound Healer

    Would you have ever guessed that this delicious food made by honeybees is actually one of mankind’s oldest-known medicines? Dating as far back as 5,000 years, honey has been successfully used to treat burns, coughs and ulcers. Hippocrates, the Greek physician, also praised honey’s healing powers and came up with many honey-based treatments for ailments such as skin disorders, ulcers and sores.

    In World War I, German physicians used a mixture of honey and cod liver oil to treat gunshot wounds. According to John Riddle, professor of ancient science at North Carolina State University, a medical text written on papyrus from 3000 years B.C. specifies the use of honey for head wounds. He says that perhaps “the honey helped prevent swelling and sealed off the wound to keep air and infection out”.

    Recent research shows that honey is far superior to antiseptics and antibiotics. Israeli researchers took honey to the test. They applied the sweet, sticky food twice a day to wounds of nine infants after two weeks of intravenous antibiotic treatment and daily antiseptic cleansing failed to heal them. Following just five days of honey treatment, the babies’ wounds improved significantly. After 16 more days, they were closed, clean, and sterile.

    In a Yemeni study, honey was shown to have a significant advantage over antiseptics used for infected surgical wounds. 50 women whose wounds became infected were divided into 2 groups. One group was treated with honey, the other with antiseptics. The patients in the honey group recovered within 7 to 11 days, whereas the antiseptic group needed 12 to 27 days.
