Making Your Own Essential Oil Blend For Massage

The ancient healing art of massage has been used for thousands of years to heal and soothe the body, mind & soul. There is nothing quite like the feeling of a good, relaxing massage. It’s great for de-stressing after a long day or to help relieve tension in your muscles.

At Daiva Spa, Novus Giri, we use only carefully crafted massage oils that can enhance wellness, promote better circulation, and calm the body. We use the best natural ingredients and a special blend of essential oils to give a wholesome experience that not only rejuvenates the body and mind but evokes your senses as well.

In this post, our highly trained therapists will share the secrets behind their restorative massage oil that you can easily recreate at home using simple and natural ingredients.

Carrier oil and essential oil are required when making this DIY massage oil. Read more about the differences:

1. Carrier oil
Carrier oil, also known as base oil or vegetable oil, is used to dilute essential oils before they are applied to the skin in massage and aromatherapy. Coconut or olive oil that can be found easily in the kitchen makes as a great carrier oil. Besides being hydrating and nourishing, they are great for people with dry and sensitive skin.

2. Essential oil
Highly concentrated oil extracted or distilled from plants. You can create a massage oil without essential oils but adding them makes the oil smells divine and increases its therapeutic benefits.

You’ll need:

• 1 glass bottle to store your massage oil
• A label maker
• 90ml of carrier oil
• 40 drops of your favorite essential oil

Pour the carrier oil of your choice into a glass bottle, and add enough essential oil according to the recipe above. Shake well to blend. Label your bottle.

You can also experiment with more than one essential oil to create unique blends tailored to your needs.

• Calming —to soothe your nerves: chamomile, lavender, frankincense, and geranium oil
• Uplifting—to uplift your mood: ylang-ylang, clary sage, rose, and neroli oil
• Energizing—when you need an extra dose of energy: rosemary oil
• Decongesting— when you’re feeling stuffed up: eucalyptus, pine, and tea tree oil
