For example, some calm while others energize. Here are some widely used essential oils and their purported properties:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Calming \u2013 chamomile, lavender, geranium<\/li>\n<li>Uplifting \u2013 ylang-ylang, clary sage, rose, neroli<\/li>\n<li>Energizing \u2013 rosemary<\/li>\n<li>Decongesting \u2013 eucalyptus, pine, tea tree<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Your massage therapist may pick oils based on your symptoms.<\/p>\n<h3>The Benefits of Aromatherapy Massage<\/h3>\n<p>Aromatherapy massage appears to reduce the pain and discomfort of menstrual cramps, a 2015 study from the<em>Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology<\/em>\u00a0suggests. Participants did a self-massage with rose essential oil, an unscented almond oil, or no oil on the first day of menstruation for two menstrual cycles. By the second cycle, aromatherapy massage reduced the severity of pain compared to massage therapy with almond oil or no oil.<\/p>\n<div id=\"native-placeholder_1-0\" class=\"comp native-placeholder mntl-block\">Massage with aromatherapy may also ease menopausal symptoms. In a study published in <em>Menopause<\/em>, researchers compared 30-minute aromatherapy massage (twice a week for four weeks) to massage with plain oil or no treatment and found that both massage and aromatherapy massage were effective in reducing menopausal symptoms (with aromatherapy massage being more effective than only massage).<\/div>\n<div id=\"billboard2-sticky_1-0\" class=\"comp billboard2-sticky billboard-sticky is-lockable\" data-height=\"600\" data-parent=\"\"><\/div>\n<p>Other research suggests that aromatherapy massage may not be helpful for some conditions. For instance, a report published in the <em>Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews<\/em> in 2016 evaluated the effects of massage with or without aromatherapy on symptom relief in people with cancer. Researchers analyzed previously published studies and concluded that \u201cthis review demonstrated no differences in effects of massage on depression, mood disturbance, psychological distress, nausea, fatigue, physical symptom distress, or quality of life when compared with no massage\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>When comparing aromatherapy massage with no massage, they found that \u201cthere was some indication of benefit in the aromatherapy-massage group but this benefit is unlikely to translate into clinical benefit\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3>What to Expect During an Aromatherapy Massage<\/h3>\n<p>After the consultation, essential oils\u00a0may be selected for you and mixed into the massage oil or lotion. Many massage therapists use pre-blended massage oil or lotion.<\/p>\n<p>The subtle aroma of the essential oils fills the air around you during the massage.<\/p>\n<div id=\"billboard3-sticky_1-0\" class=\"comp billboard3-sticky billboard-sticky is-lockable\" data-height=\"600\" data-parent=\"\"><\/div>\n<p>After the massage, the massage therapist may suggest a blend that you can use at home in between massage treatments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aromatherapy massage is massage therapy enhanced with essential oils\u00a0(highly concentrated plant oils)\u00a0added to the massage oil or lotion.
