Aromatherapy massage combines classic massage techniques with the scent of botanical oils. What sets it apart is that it adds the sense of smell to touch, which noticeably changes how the session is experienced.
How does a session unfold?
It begins with choosing an oil. Your therapist offers a few options and invites you to try the scents. The chosen essence is blended into a carrier base — essential oils are never applied directly to the skin.
A light, slowly paced massage then begins. Pressure is generally kept low; the aim is relaxation rather than muscle work. Lighting is dimmed and calm music accompanies the session.
Common oils and why guests choose them
Lavender: The most popular choice. Its calming, familiar scent makes it a favourite for evening sessions.
Orange blossom: Sweeter and lighter. It offers a pleasant balance for midday sessions.
Eucalyptus: A sharp, refreshing note, chosen by guests who like the sense of easier breathing.
Rose: Rich and classic; often chosen for special occasions.
Who is it suitable for?
It is ideal for guests who prefer a light touch, feel mentally tired and respond well to scent. For guests sensitive to fragrance, a neutral unscented oil is also available.
Please tell us in advance about any allergies. Some essential oils are not recommended during pregnancy, so consult your doctor first.
A common misunderstanding
Aromatherapy massage is not a treatment method. It is not performed to cure a specific condition; its purpose is comfort, relaxation and feeling well.
After the session
If you would like the oil to stay on your skin, you can delay your shower for a few hours. Drinking plenty of water and avoiding a demanding schedule afterwards help the effect last longer.
