The Essential Guide to Massage

The Essential Guide to Massage
Customer Review: Two DVDs for the value of one
This two DVD set covers more than just massage, in case you happen to believe in aromatherapy, acupressure and reflexology.
On the plus side, all the massage techniques are performed long enough for those new to massage to grasp them. Head, feet, and facial are covered, along with body. Camera work is adequate if not inspired, and the video quality is good. While one gets the “what could be expected in an institutional setting” feeling when watching, this is a video for the whole family, something one can’t say for some other massage videos.
On the minus side, some things are repeated. One sees essentially the same complete back massage three times, in different places on the DVDs. There is a menu mixup between arm massage and chest and neck massage. Whoever laid out the DVDs was not a friend of logic.
As for the massage itself, it somehow doesn’t look that enjoyable. The draping, for the most part, would be acceptable to a nun, and it causes definite breaks in the massage. The techniques look very rule-bound, which I suppose goes along with the instructional nature, but I watched a masseuse miss the same part of the back over and over, just to follow a pattern.
All in all, you could learn to massage someone from this DVD set. Just don’t pay too much.

Customer Review: Charming book
This is a charming book on aromatherapy, written in a conversational style. You can imagine sitting with a friend in a tea-shop where she is telling you how this or that essential oil helped so and so with such and such a problem. This makes book very easy to read and the stories make it easy to remember what essential oil may be helpful for treating particular issue. While the focus of the book is on essential oils which are helpful for issues related to women such as pms, pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, it covers many issue related to both sexes, such as weight loss, skin care, hair care, sexually transmitted diseases and general ailments like headache, stomachache, infections, etc. At the end of the book there are about 16 pages with recipes related to issues mentioned previously in the book. This is a rather small book, perhaps more geared toward newcomers to aromatherapy, though the anecdotal stories make it for an informative and fun reading for anyone.
Customer Review: A wonderful guide… but not always to aromatherapy
This was one of my very first aromatherapy books, because it is relatively inexpensive, and likewise relatively small and non-threatening. It has more the feel of a friendly guide than some obscure textbook. I still use it on a very regular basis, even though I’ve also added a number of more advanced books to my repertoire. It is, on the whole, indeed very useful for women (and can be for men as well, of course!) It covers a wide range of women’s-interest subjects, from home and body care, to pregnancy and infants ailments. The information for men is not as prevalent (as indicated in the title, of course) but many things that apply to women apply to men as well. Most of the information is very thorough, but it can sometimes be hard to get to the ‘meat’ of what you are looking for. It is written in a very ‘friendly’, anecdotal style, which although easier reading than more ‘technical’ books, can make it difficult to find the key things you are looking for. The recommended essential oils are always in bold text, however, so that does at least partially negate this problem. Another issue I had with it was the fact that some of the subjects she speaks about, there is NO essential oil information at all. This would not trouble me nearly as much, except for the fact that part of the title of the book is ‘Guide to Essential Oils’. It is still good information, but if there is no essential oil information, I don’t feel it belongs in an essential oil guide. Despite these problems, however, I would definitely recommend it for any aromatherapy/essential oil library.
