Massage Oil

[Pompal 09.]

Not sure if this has been brought up before but here it goes. Have any of you taken your own aromatherapy/scented oil (that you purchased) to a MP and told an MPA to use it on you ? The reason why I am asking this is because on a recent session with a particular MPA, she handed me her own aromatherapy oil to use it on her and it smelled great. Also got a chance to read the description on the bottle and it appeared to have excellent skin healing/revitalizing qualities. I know that these oils are mainly for professional use but a few of my favourite MPA's give decent massages and it would be great to use these products since I visit MP's so often .... a good way to maintain healthy skin and also satisfy my other needs. Any recommendations as to which type of aromatherapy/scented oil are good for you and are there any quality places in the Mississauga/Etobicoke/Brampton area where I can pick them up ?


The following link gives a description of some types of oils:

Hey LM,

MPAs in general are open to you bringing in your own things (oils that is). I've seen MPAs that bring in their own soaps or oils. At the end of the day I'd say just ask, I can't see the harm in asking.

As for good places to buy oils.... I understand that the Body Shoppe has a good line of aromatherapy oils. These stores are certainly easy enough to find in most malls.

Did this happen to you at Platinum Spa?

Nope.

And thanks for the heads-up, FrankCastle. I think there's a Body Shoppe @ Square One. I will take a look.

Aveda at Sherway has great oils, but are pricey. However, Neutrogena at Shoppers is affordable and is good for sensitive skin. Fruits of Passion have good stuff too. It will probably impress the ladies, if you show that you have taste- when it comes to shit like this.

Angelina, you seem to have exquisite taste !!! No wonder all the reviews on you are extremely positive.

Platinum does have Baby Oil if you don't like Mineral Oil. You have to ask for it.

I have trouble washing off the Mineral Oil after the session.
