For massage therapists: What is the best, the gentle massage oil or lotion?

For facial massage, in particular. Anything with parabens or anything that may cause rashes. My husband and I are learning to give each other face / scalp / neck massages. Any information would be useful - whatever the type or brand or where to buy? Thanks:)

It depends on your skin type. Base oils of almond, jojoba oils and nut-based others. You only need to try several different types on your skin. You can also get lotions, foot massage, as Biotone which is used by professionals, but can be expensive.

A massage is a wonderful relaxing experience that can relieve tension in your body and lead to greater overall health. The basic movements of massage, however, can create a friction that is not always desired in the body. For this reason, some massage techniques include the use of massage oil to help lubricate the skin and allow that your fingers glide easily over it. The use of massage oil massage make your experience comfortable and can also make it a relaxing aromatherapy session too.

Choose the oil

The right oil is the key to a good massage. Some oils are easily absorbed through the skin, which means it does not feel greasy after the massage, massage oils, while others are purchased with a lifetime high. A good massage oil to use is sweet almond oil, that is effectively absorbed through the skin, which is suitable for massage. However, the drawback is that almond oil can not be used in people with allergies nuts. Jojoba oil is one that has a long useful life and well absorbed, but the downside is that it is absorbed so quickly that you will need to apply for the massage.

It may be tempting to use cooking oils that already has at home, but avoid these. Although some, such as olive oil and sesame oil, sometimes are used in massage, these oils are very thick and are not easily absorbed through the skin. If these oils are used at all, is likely to be mixed with other oils for massage.

Petroleum Storage

Massage oils have a shelf life, like any other oil, and can go rancid over time. When you buy oil massage, be sure to find something with a long life, such as jojoba oil. Other oils like sunflower oil can go rancid fairly quickly. The best way to stop the massage oil too fast is bad for the purchase in small bottles, and store in a cool dark place.

Essential oils

Essential oils are concentrated plant oils, with a smell, so the addition of these massage oils can turn your massage in a new experience that adds flavor and like feel. However, the essential oils on their own are too powerful to be used on the skin, but should be diluted with another oil before using. So little as 12 drops of essential oils added to one ounce of carrier oil like almond oil, it will be all you need. Note that these massage oil blends goes stale faster than the carrier oil itself, so be sure to mix in small amounts to get the most out of their oil. The Proper storage of your massage oils will ensure that you have it when you need to give a soothing, relaxing massage.

Inspired by the Mistral Winds of Provence The mistral wind is a life-giving force, unlike anything else in the world. During the winter and spring, this strong, cold wind sweeps down from the Alps and moves over France's Rhone Valley, leaving blue skies and dry air in its path. The warmth and freshness brought by the mistral rejuvenates the soil, creates lush planting conditions, and gives birth to fields of herbs and flowers. Mistral skincare products take their name from this wind that brings change and transformation to the region of Provence. Like the life-giving wind, Mistral products have a transformative effect, softening and beautifying skin and soothing the senses. The Story of Mistral: "A Fragrant Journey" In 1993, Matthew Tilker, Mistral's founder and president, was studying alternative cancer therapies in Europe, when during a stay in Provence, Tilker met a 70-year-old master soap maker, who crafted soaps according to a 300-year-old traditional triple-milling process. The soap maker's artistry, knowledge, and love of his craft left a lasting impression on Tilker. After completing his studies and returning home to California, Tilker's newly acquired passion for fragrance, as well as his background in natural healing, encouraged him to create and develop a line of soaps. Today, Mistral offers thirty soap fragrances, and numerous scented personal care products that blend the best of modern science with the age-old wisdom and traditions of the past. Mistral reveres the profundity of nature and strives to protect the environment when creating its products and packaging. Mistral also makes charitable contributions to social and environmental causes. What's in the Box Mistral Bath, Body, and Massage Oil, Lavender, 7 fl oz
