Ancient Remedies

Grounding, also known as earthing, is the practice of reconnecting physically and energetically with the Earth. It involves direct contact with natural surfaces such as grass, soil, sand, or seawater, or using conductive tools indoors that replicate this connection. This simple act helps restore balance within the body, calm the nervous system, and promote both physical and emotional healing.

Aromatherapy has been cherished for thousands of years for its ability to soothe, heal, and rejuvenate. The ancient Egyptians used fragrant oils in their daily rituals, the Greeks turned to them for relaxation and healing, and the Romans infused their baths with essential oils to enhance wellness. Over centuries, these aromatic traditions naturally found their way into massage therapy, blending the power of touch with the therapeutic benefits of scent.

One of my all-time favorite scents is frankincense. For years, I’ve primarily used it as incense to cleanse my spaces—whether at home or in the office. I often blend it with a touch of sandalwood and myrrh for an even richer aroma.
