After completing my tour of Europe, my whole body was aching. Upon returning to London, I visited Zoe, who helped me with a bespoke aromatherapy massage. Before starting, she inquired about my condition and needs. I mentioned that I wanted relief from muscle soreness but didn't want all the pain to resurface the next day. I also expressed a fear of being completely relaxed and soft since I still had plans to continue. Internally, I thought: "Just a little relaxation would be nice." Zoe then began to tailor the massage oil for me and started the massage. During the process, she didn't apply too much force but rather seemed to follow the contours of my muscles. She used gentle pressure to work the oil into my muscles. I thought to myself: "So gentle, a relaxed massage session. I don't expect much in terms of results, considering the accumulated back pain from the entire trip for over ten days." However, after the massage, I felt noticeably revitalized. Even my nails unexpectedly had a healthy red glow—hahaa.
The next morning, the effects were quite evident. I had a peaceful night's sleep, my muscle soreness had eased, and I felt energetic. My complexion was good, a pleasant surprise! I initially thought it wouldn't be anything special, just expecting a relaxing essential oil massage. In the end, I felt healed and uplifted. Zoe added that this is the effect of aromatherapy, where the massage is a technique to bring the essential oils into the body. It's worth mentioning that Zoe's treatment was very reassuring—calm, professional explanations about oil choices added to the completeness of the healing process. Thanks to her thoughtful approach.
