Essential oils
Essential oils enter the body via basic routes: the skin, the lungs and olfactory system.
Essential oils penetrate the skin when they are applied via massage. The warmth and pressure of the therapist’s hands during massage speeds up the penetration of the essential oils. Essential oils penetrate to the dermis where they then pass through the capillary wall into the bloodstream. The blood then transports the essential oils around the body, which may take only about 28 seconds!
Most oils have anti-bacterial effect. Some oils have diuretic properties. Jasmine, ylang-ylang and rose have an aphrodisiac effect. Aniseed, garlic and fennel oil stimulates oestrogen production.
Zen will blend and mix selected essential oils especially for you to satisfy your body needs.
