Stress Relief with Essential Oils

From time to time we can all experience stress and anxiety. Our busy lives can stop us taking a moment to step back, relax and look after our mental, as well as physical, health. Untreated stress can lead to an array of health problems on top of effecting your mood, so implementing an effective stress reduction strategy can make an incredible difference to your quality of life.

For centuries, different cultures have utilised the healing, therapeutic properties of essential oils. Here at Oleo we’re no different; we believe our formulations must benefit mind, body and overall well-being. In basic terms, essential oils help relieve stress because of their wonderful aroma. Now, this may sound silly, but within your nose there are millions of receptors that connect to the brain’s Limbic system, an area partially responsible for emotions. Therefore, the calming scent of the right, high-quality oils can leave you feeling much better. So before considering other options, give the natural power of essential oils a try as they can be extremely beneficial.

 Luckily for you, Oleo’s professional Aromatherapist, Olivia, has hand-picked the perfect selection of calming ingredients in several of her products. As a qualified massage therapist, she loves to use her own products due to their professional high-quality ingredients.
