10 Massage Oils worth considering (Part 1)

There is a number of oils you can choose from when considering massage and it can sometimes be overwhelming trying to decide which one to buy. Below we take a look at 10 massage oils you might want to consider and a brief introduction to each oil. The first 5 massage oils are listed below.

1. Jojoba Oil comes from the Jojoba Bean this natural base oil is perfect for using in massage. This oil also comes in other forms such as shampoo with this oil being excellent for the hair and skin. This is a very popular oil and one you can mix with some other oils.

2. Grapefruit Essential Oil is not everyone's first thought when the idea of massage oils come up but this is an oil which I once used, is very popular with people receiving massages. The aroma of this oil is very popular and if you mix thus oil with one of the base oils, it is perfect for massage. You can get this oil in most good herbal shops.

3. Sunflower oil is a massage oil which also combines nicely with base oils and this oil is easy to buy in most Health shops and is quite cheap. This oil is best used mixed with a base oil and this is a very good source of Vitamin E.

4. Edible massage oils for couples (vanilla and chocolate). Buying a massage oil which can be also eaten can certainly add spice to the bedroom and is a particular good massage oil for Valentine's Day. The vanilla normally taste fine and the oils tend to be very reasonable for massage. You can normally easily buy this type of oil online including through amazon.com and co.uk

5. Coconut Butter Oil is similar to sunflower oil is that it is a carrier oil rather than a base oil and one which is very good for body massage. This comes from the kernow of a coconut and oil has many uses including massage and sometimes also in cooking.
