SERVICES Remedial massage along with Aromatherapy will help your body heal itself. "The power that made the body heals the body”
This little sentence is so true in Natural Medicine. In a few words, it translates the nature of the remedy, which aims to empower your SELF.
Essential oils are volatile extracts from plants. They have a true chemical activity, which means, they can actually control muscle spasm, and modify the reponse to neurochemicals. They work on a physical,emotional and spiritual level.

Did you know that...
Aromatherapy massage is a remedial massage technique incorporating pure essential oils from the plants which have astonishing properties. They are renowned for calming the agitated mind , soothing the muscles, alleviating arthritic pain, draining impurities from the tissues, stimulating lymph and blood circulation...The list is almost endless.
Some essential oils have powerful antiseptic and even antibacterial properties. Researchers are currently studying new essential oils in Australia and the results are more than promising.
Here at Andergrove Aromatherapy Massage, I can create a blend just for you, without the use of harmful chemicals. I can show you how to make your own insect repellent, lotion or perfume*. Imagine a perfume made of real flowers without synthetic fragrances?
Hydrosols are also great!
Have you heard about floral waters, also named hydrosols? Rose , neroli , lemon myrtle, rosemary... They also have their place in Aromatherapy. They are not only used as fresheners. They can do wonders on tired skins, red eyes, sunburns. You can also use some of them as gargles, like rosemary, rosalina (melaleuca ericifolia). No chemical added, only those from the plants, and children love them!

See the recent feedback from patients:
"After a muscle repair on my left leg I had trouble with swelling in both legs and feet. Numerous doctors tests found no medical reason for my problem. A doctor asked me to try remedial massage and after a few visits the swelling disappeared. Twelve months later I have had no recurrence of the problem. I cannot speak highly enough about Pat and the treatment I received in curing this problem. Once again, Pat thanks for curing this problem."
Brian R.
" I have found Patricia to be a wonderful caring Therapist and because of her professional regard to both my physical and emotional states I have been able to regain some sense of normality after the personal loss of my husband. To spend an hour with her having a massage is totally relaxing and uplifting for myself, and I recommend Patricia to anyone who requires such treatment."
Maureen H.
"I was treated by Patricia after a very painful shoulder injury. I found Patricia a thoughtful and compassionate therapist who took great care in listening to me in order to understand my symptoms and therefore the source of my pain . Her massage sessions were totally geared to my needs and were in no way a "generic" massage. She was always conscious of my pain and checked frequently to ensure that I was comfortable, using my feedbackto enable better treatment of specific muscles.
Her sensitive and nurturing treatment facilitated a speed recovery from what I found a debilitating condition.
I have since and will continue to recommend Patricia to anyone who appreciates a "patient centred" approach to health care."
Lesley B.
"After three sessions on my back I have not had any trouble on my back. I would recommend your treatment to all."
C.Ed.
"I found it very beneficial to my neck and shoulders, also relaxing and I would advise anyone to try a session. You would be certain to return."
J.E
"I found it was so relaxing and I did get relief out of a session. I wish I could get there more often. You do a great job!"
Robyn O.
"My wife and I have received Aromatherapy massage sessions from Patricia on many occasions for muscular pain in lower back, shoulders, neck and arms. We have both benefitted from these sessions by relieving the pain and relaxing tight muscles, so that we can go on enjoying life without pain an tension. We have found Patricia to be gentle and firm (but not uncomfortable) when massaging. We would definitely recommend her work."
R&E C.
"Having experienced a high degree of stress for a long time, I found the sessions taught me to relax physically and mentally. Improvement with headaches, muscle soreness and anxiety followed.The thoughtful choice of essential oils enhanced the experience.Pampering with a purpose!"
R.W.
"From a problem calf I have had for twenty years that no one could touch with a fear of cramping, my leg now is 99% improved on what it was".
Darian C.
"I was extremely happy with the service provided and how the pain eased even after my first visit. I will certainly return if my back gives me trouble again."
Mike K.
"The benefits that I got from the Aromatherapy sessions are: Relaxation, improvement in my condtion-resulting in less pain, a general feeling of well-being-rejuvenated."
Janice D.
"I had reached a point where I could hardly walk from the pain in my feet. After the very first session with Patricia, I was back on my feet. After the following session I was floating...Thanks to Patricia's magical hands."
