The Aromatouch Technique is the patented name for a massage system that involves the use of essential oils to enhance massage. THis can be great for someone who likes both the smell and the therapeutic benefit of a massage oil infused with a fragrance. THe essential oil of many herbs are known to be healthy for the skin, and vitamins and other properties can be absorbed through the skin in modest doses.

Vitamins get to the skin in one of two ways. They are either provided by the bloodstream or else they are absorbed through the skin when it comes in contact with an oil or the moist surface of an herb. Absorbing through the skin is less direct but the substances go through fewer changes in the body and so are delivered in a raw state. This can do wonders to improve skin health, fight wrinkles, and improve health overall.
That which is absorbed by the skin has the potential to get into the muscles or else to affect the subjective feeling of pain and unpleasantness. Some herbal essences are antiinflammatory while others have a soothing effect while others promote healing. The total benefits might be the relief from the massage while the herbal essence has more lasting medicinal benefits.
Herbal extracts are not considered clinical medicine by doctors, but this does not mean they do not have tremendous benefits when correctly used. They contain oil-soluble vitamins and beneficial properties. Herbal extracts have been used in medicines for thousands of years, and the benefit of infused oil is that it is effective for a massage with minimal side effects.
The proper concentration depends on the sensitivity of the skin and its therapeutic needs. Most oil extracts are not suitable for directly applying to the skin and instead are mixed with salves and massaging oils. It is possible to increase the concentration quite easily, with the effect being a stronger smell and medicinal effect. The skin might react to a strong concentration, so it might be best to try a lower dose at first.
The Aromatouch Technique is patented for combining scented, infused oil with massage techniques that are known to be therapeutic and to promote oil to sink into the skin. Oil alone is able to enhance the massage, but infused with an essential extract it becomes highly therapeutic. Skilled practitioners choose their methods carefully. You could be the beneficiary of a well designed and enjoyable program.
