Aromatherapy facial

An aromatherapy facial is similar to a classic facial but includes the use of essential oils in some of the steps, as well as the oils being vaporised in the room. You can choose from 3 different oil blends, depending on what benefits you want to achieve:

  • A rejuvenating blend of rose geranium and frankinsence – these oils contain antioxidant compounds which make them beneficial to mature skin.
  • A calming blend of chamomile and lavender – these oils have a soothing, anti-inflammatory effect and lavender also assists skin healing
  • A refreshing blend of petitgrain and rosemary – mildly astringent and antibacterial, these oils help to leave the skin feeling fresh and revitalised

The aromatherapy facial treatment

Cleansing

The treatment starts with a skin cleanse and tone, using fragrance free products.

Skin warming

Skin warming

Next comes skin warming with hot towels, which improves circulation and enhances the benefits of the face massage that follows.

Massage

Aromatherapy facial Chelmsford

Once the skin is nice and warm, you’ll have face, shoulder, head and neck massage using an essential oils blend of your choice.

Oil removal

Any excess oil is removed with warm cloths and toner, to prepare the skin for moisturising.

Moisturise

The treatment finishes with a moisturiser containing your choice of oils.

Oil vaporisation

Aromatherapy science - vaporiser

Your chosen oil blend will also be vaporised in the room to enhance your treatment. Essential oils affect many body systems and inhaling the oils has a positive effect on mood. The skin rejuvenating and calming blends have a relaxing effect on the nervous system, easing stress and anxiety. The refreshing blend is uplifting and can help to improve mental clarity.

Cost of treatment

The aromatherapy facial treatment is 45 minutes and costs £37.

I have been going to Sue for 6 months and she is amazing. I have had problems with my back for years and I have seen a significant improvement with regular deep tissue massages. Her detailed knowledge and technical skills are always evident.

I have been visiting Body Benefits for the past 10 months and having monthly deep tissue back and shoulder massages to help with neck pain. I can thoroughly recommend Sue, she has made an amazing difference and I can’t recommend her enough!

I've been having regular back/shoulder massages for years as like a lot of people hold tension in that area. I'm so glad to have found Body Benefits now. Sue is truly a wonderful massage practioneer. She is very skilled at finding problem areas and applying just the right pressure to help. Sue has a lovely relaxing room she uses for her massage and other treatments. Overall Sue's expertise and experience in this area is excellent. She has a calming, kind manner that puts you at ease. I rate Body Benefits very highly and would certainly recommend Sue's massage services to others.

If you want or need a really good massage then I can’t recommend Body Benefits highly enough. Sue is a very skilled and professional masseuse. I went to her for a specific issue and the treatment was extremely beneficial as well as being one of the most relaxing I have received. Very good value for money, easy parking, lovely treatment room with the warm blanket, and a lovely lady to look after you. What’s not to like! I will definitely return if the need arises.

I have had massage therapy for many years. I have been to Sue for the last couple of years and can honestly say it is one of the best massages I have received. I leave feeling extremely relaxed and would highly recommend her.

I would highly recommend a massage at Body Benefits. Really amazing service. Excellent massage -very skilled masseuse who easily deals with those knots and points of tension. (I've had a lot of massages to compare!) Great location. Easy to find/plenty of parking. Clean, quiet room with a calm atmosphere to unwind and relax. Good value for money. I keep going back!

I've been seeing Sue for several years for both a deep tissue massage and hot stones. The massage results are always great, no matter how knotty I am! Sue's very friendly and welcoming which enhances the massage
