| One of our specialties! Mental stress is something we all have to deal with these days, anti-depressants becoming more common every year it seems. It’s important that we manage stressful situations well and it’s great if we can do this drug-free! Unchecked stress is arguably worse for you than a physical injury. When we are stressed this can affect our relationships, self and physical health. There is an old saying “stress becomes tension in muscle, disease in organs“.

We can harness the simple benefits of mood-altering aroma, chat, lend a friendly ear to listen or proactively assist with stress management skills.
