A European Approach to Aromatherapy Massage

I first trained in aromatherapy massage in the UK in 1989, where facial massage and essential oils were taught as an integrated therapeutic experience rather than separate techniques.

Years later, I returned to the UK to work as Education Manager for Eve Taylor Aromatherapy, teaching internationally throughout Europe and Asia. Those experiences deepened my understanding of how touch, rhythm, aroma, and intention work together to create treatments that clients genuinely remember.

This course brings together those influences into a practical facial massage sequence designed specifically for estheticians. You’ll learn how to combine flowing massage movements with the sensory benefits of essential oils to support relaxation, sinus drainage, lymphatic flow, and overall client well-being.
