What Is Aromatherapy?
Massage focuses on the body, while Aromatherapy helps support how you feel.
This popular upgrade combines massage with the therapeutic qualities of essential oils. These plant-based extracts are absorbed through the skin and inhaled during your treatment, helping to influence the limbic system, which plays a role in emotion and memory. This can encourage a sense of calm, balance, and overall wellbeing.
At our Reading centre, we offer The TMC Collection, three signature essential oil blends created to suit different needs. Whether you want to relax, feel more energised, or find a moment of calm, there is a blend to complement your session.
As your treatment begins, a gentle, fresh scent helps create a calming environment, allowing you to unwind from the outset.
