This concoction should be used in a local focal treatment area, as it could be extremely cooling to the skin, and overstimulating for some if it was used in a full body treatment.
Ingredients can vary based on the client and their individual needs. Here are some suggestions to create a Sport Massage Blend with Gels, Oils, Lotions & Creams:
- Unscented massage medium (you can use gels, oils, lotions or creams
- Peppermint essential oil (stimulating, refreshing and restorative)
- Spearmint essential oil (uplifting, calming and relaxing)
Some may substitute a menthol essential oil for it's cooling effects, especially for athletes who are competing to exhaustion or in extreme heat. The amount of essential oil used will depend on the amount of massage medium being blended. Remember to only blend in tinted glass just prior to using, to retain the greatest amount of essential oil therapeutic properties.
Be sure to train in aromatherapy applications and contraindications plus sports massage and heat exhaustion or heat stroke symptoms prior to administering any type of service to a client.
