Candle Massage Instructor Two Day Practitioner Course

WHAT IS CANDLE MASSAGE?

Candle Massage uses a combination of Asian, Eastern and Western massage techniques, combined with Essential Oil Massage Candles, Balms and Chakra Pearls.  Massage candles have been gaining are included, popularity recently because of the numerous benefits the experience provides.  The massage candle incorporates soy wax and natural moisturising oils such as jojoba and shea butter.  Unique ingredients and their formulation ensure that a massage candle melts at just above body temperature.  Once the massage candle has been lit, a pool of creamy massager oils forms, the flame is then extinguished, and the ingredients are applied to the skin.  Because only small amounts of soy wax are included, the candle is not hot like a traditional candle,  and feels comfortably arm on the skin.  Using massage candles is described as a therapeutic experience.  It is relaxing and nourishing for both body and soul.
