Treat Dad with Aromatherapy Massage Relaxation in Sparta!

Do you have a special father in your life? If so, expert massage therapists in NJ have a secret to share: Men need to relax and unwind just as much as women do! While the dominant culture makes it look like men are big, sturdy, unbreakable monster trucks, even those monster trucks need a tune-up and oil change every now and again. Whether you’re looking for the perfect Father’s Day gift for your own father, or treating the father of your young children to a special treat, check out these great ideas for aromatherapy! It’s the perfect way to relax in the middle of a pandemic and won’t smell too “girly” or flowery. We are Young Living Independent Distributor #10256875 and here are our favorite scents from Young Living Essential Oils!

Magical Mixers: Vetiver and Copaiba

Many relaxation products feature a lavender scent, but many people who prefer masculine scents turn their noses up at flowers. For similar relaxation, try Vetiver, a relaxing, soothing scent that is earthy, smoky, and similar to the smell of fresh-cut grass. This essential oil blends beautifully with Northern Lights Black Spruce and Tangerine for a refreshing diffused scent, or boosts your daily face wash! Want even more skin support? Try a Copaiba essential oil with a warm, balsamic scent that promotes relaxation as it soothers and softens your skin. It even works great as a booster to your favorite beard oil!

Spicy Single Oils: Ginger and Peppermint

If the idea of a complex fragrance is something your dad would sneeze at, try a simple, classic essential oil like ginger or peppermint. These are some of the most frequently requested oils that masculine clients request when they visit Essential Massage Therapy for an aromatherapy massage in Sparta, and are just as easy to use at home! While peppermint is cool, minty, and leaves your skin feeling icy, ginger is the opposite with a hot, spicy, warming feeling. Both are wonderful for a DIY massage at home, or perfect to diffuse to boost energy.

The Ultimate Multitasker: Tea Tree Oil

If your home doesn’t already have tea tree oil, get moving! This wonderful oil has a distinctive, Eucalyptus-like smell, and has natural cleaning properties. Want to crush the smell of an old gym bag or the garlic bread you cooked last night? Tea tree oil has you covered. And speaking of being covered with tea tree oil, this essential oil is excellent for scalp massage or as a nick-reducing additive to your aftershave!

This Father’s Day, treat and surprise Dad with a bit of relaxation! While our massage shops remain frustratingly closed, make sure to read through our blog for tips on DIY aromatherapy massage, and visit our Sparta office once we open for a professional experience. We wish you and your family a wonderful Father’s Day, and hope you are all celebrating safely at home.
