Aromatherapy Massage

50 mins

Reset body and mind with a 50-minute aromatherapy massage at Faking It. Your therapist selects essential oils to match your needs, then uses flowing strokes and focused pressure to ease tight muscles, settle the nervous system, and improve sleep. We tailor pressure, check for contraindications, and keep the experience calm and comfortable.

What should I wear for my massage?
Undress to your comfort level. You will be professionally draped throughout, and disposable underwear is available. Please remove jewellery.
