Is a massage with scented oils better for your skin?

While there are many benefits to massage - relaxation, the release of muscle tension - there's also another: aromatherapy. Many people think aromatherapy has to do with smelling, but it's really about allowing your body to absorb oils that can have a profound effect on your health. (But remember to read the label - essential oils and the scent).

There's still an ongoing debate whether massage with aromas is superior to standard massage, but some evidence suggests you may experience more short-term benefits from a massage with scents. The scent with the most data supporting it: lemon. We recommend you use the scent in a variety of ways:-Rub your body with lemon oil to promote sleep and soothe skin burns.

-Spray lemon on a pillow a couple hours before bed. -Take a foot bath with lemon in it. Some studies show that a foot bath with lavender as opposed to a foot bath without lavender helps promote relaxation.

-Have (or give) a massage with lemon oil, or take a bath with it. Some other aromas and oils we suggest:Peppermint and lavender (we think these work, but we're still waiting for good scientific studies). Tea tree oil for topical infection in some of our "dirtier" areas, like the feet, armpits, or groin, or even the pilonidal cyst area just above the crack between your buttocks cheeks in hairy people.

Rosemary, which can help improve mental alertness and function by reducing the effect of stress so you can focus.
