Best Essential Oils that Can be Used during a Geriatric Massage
The following are some of the best essential oils that will be of great benefit when carrying out a geriatric massage:
  • Lavender oil: This oil will help the senior get more relaxed and will also help the client to have better sleep.
  • Chamomile: This is a relaxation oil which will help the senior suffering from sleep disorders to have better sleep.
  • Sweet Marjoram: The oil is vital for the calming of the nervous system and will also be beneficial if the senior is suffering from high blood pressure. It also helps in the reduction of nervous tension and helps in getting rid of loneliness and the grief feeling.
  • Valerian: This oil is beneficial for calming the nerves and will ensure that the senior get to sleep faster and have a better sleep.
  • Ylang ylang: It has a floral scent and will work towards making the elderly client relax.
  • Vetiver: When used during a massage session it will aid in calming and stabilizing the client and this will eventually lead t better sleep.
  • Cedarwood: This oil will ensure that the brain is completely shut off from all worries and trouble, leaving the client relaxed due to its soothing nature.
Before using an essential oil on an elderly client, you should ensure that he is not allergic to the oil so that the massage will not result in negative effects. You can also ask the client if he is comfortable with strong smells or would be better with unscented massage oil.
The comfort of the senior should be your top priority when carrying out the massage and you should maintain an open communication. Whatever makes the client uncomfortable should be avoided so that you can retain the client and get more senior clients through him.
If the client does not suffer from any allergies, you can use a blend of oils so that you will get multiple benefits from the massage.
