Rub away aches with your loved one on 14th February this Valentines Day.
Valentine's Day, the day of love and romance! Massage is thought to be one of the oldest forms of therapy practiced on the human body, with many people today using massage as a way of relieving tension, unwinding and relaxing. Giving your partner a massage on Valentine’s Day is more thoughtful, economical and romantic than sitting in a packed restaurant full of lovebirds.
Nelsons Arnicare bath & massage is a unique dual purpose balm, which can be used to massage aches and bathe tension - the perfect way to relax your partner on Valentine’s Day. Enriched with arnica extract Arnicare bath & massage balm harnesses the invaluable natural properties of arnica.
Here are a few massage tips from Michelle Juniper, Health and Beauty Specialist from Tip To Toe to ensure you get it right on the night.
Start by warming the balm in your hands then apply to the massage area using long smooth stokes with the whole of your hands, (palms and fingers). This will warm the balm and spread it evenly over the skin.
If applying stronger pressure concentrate on the fleshy areas where there is more muscle. Avoid hard pressure over the bones e.g. on the spine, instead focus on the muscles that run either side of the spine.
As you massage the Sweet Almond oil, Evening Primrose oil and Calendula extract contained in Arnicare bath & massage balm will help to naturally hydrate and nourish the skin.
Try to focus on working in time with the persons breathing to help soothe and relax your loved one.
When working on tense areas or knots use smaller, deep movements that work the tension away from the area and continue past the area of tension. The sense of the essential oils of Lavender and Grapefruit essential oils in Arnicare bath & massage balm can help to melt away any tension and relax the mind.
End by using the same long smooth strokes you started with, this can help comfort and relax the muscles.
Nelsons Arnicare arnica bath & massage balm costs £8.15 and is available from Boots
