Yes. At My Spa Joy you can select from curated essential oil blends or consult with your therapist for a personalized combination. We consider preferences and sensitivities to ensure a pleasant, safe scent suited to your relaxation goals.

We use high-quality, diluted essential oils and perform a brief consultation to identify sensitivities. Patch tests are available on request. If you have severe allergies, please inform us beforehand so we can recommend appropriate alternatives or skip aromatherapy.

Therapists diffuse chosen oils in the room and may use diluted blends in massage oil. Application is gentle and intended to complement technique, enhancing relaxation without overpowering. Tell your therapist if you prefer scent strength adjusted or avoided.

Yes, certain essential oils like lavender and chamomile are known to promote relaxation and better sleep. While not a medical treatment, aromatherapy can reduce stress markers and support anxiety management when combined with relaxing massage techniques.

Scent duration varies by oil and ventilation; typically the aroma fades within one to several hours. Clothing or hair may retain traces longer. We can adjust diffusion strength or provide post-treatment rinsing suggestions if you prefer minimal lingering scent.

Some essential oils are contraindicated in pregnancy or certain medical conditions. Always disclose pregnancy, medications, and health issues during booking. Our therapists will recommend safe blends or decline aromatherapy when necessary to protect your health and ensure a comfortable experience.
