Certificate III in Beauty Services: Body & Aromatherapy Pathway

Aromatherapy centres around holistic medicine that utilises extracts from natural plants for health and wellbeing.

Many massage therapists apply aromatic essential oils therapeutically combined with their massage techniques to improve their client’s physical and emotional health.

Aromatherapy works by stimulating receptors in the nose responsible for smell, sending messages by olfactory cells to the part of the brain that controls the drive for survival, emotions, and instinct called the limbic system. The olfactory cells recognise scents as specific aromatic molecules that fit into receptors on these cells. Scientists believe that these nerve signals’ action causes powerful mood changes in response to particular smells.

Massage therapy, combined with essential oils, candles and incense, stimulates positive emotions and relaxation, equipping clients with coping mechanisms for many other health issues.
