Eileen Lander at The Well Natural Health Centre, Birmingham, invites you to experience some deep relaxation and invest in your own health and well-being. Give yourself permission to do nothing - but to breathe and relax and invest in your own health and well-being. Treatments entail administering a multi-sensory experience in the form of a deeply relaxing, therapeutic aromatherapy massage or reflexology foot treatment. Whilst touch is reassuring and calming, essential oils, when inhaled have an impact on the limbic system, thus triggering memories and emotions. Essential oils when absorbed through the skin have been proven to have a beneficial effect on managing symptoms, mood and behaviour.
