Women’s Health Aromatherapy
What is Women’s Health Aromatherapy?.
Women’s Health Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils specifically tailored to support the unique physical, emotional, and hormonal needs of women. It addresses various stages of our life, including menstruation, pregnancy, postpartum, menopause, and overall wellbeing. By using natural plant extracts, Women’s Health Aromatherapy helps alleviate symptoms like menstrual pain, hormonal imbalances, mood swings, and stress, while promoting relaxation, balance, and well-being.
This holistic approach supports women in managing their health naturally, enhancing both physical and emotional well-being.
What Are Essential Oils?
Essential oils are the aromatic essence of the plant, extracted from the leaves, flowers, fruits, bark, seeds, roots or resins and they contain plants’ defence mechanisms. Essential oils are powerful healing agents and their properties range greatly. They can help with a broad spectrum of conditions including skin problems like psoriasis, eczema or fungal infections, chronic pain, digestive issues and offer emotional and psychological support. They have been used for thousands of years not only for their medicinal & fragrant properties, but also in rituals to achieve spiritual connection.
Methods of Application
- Massage: The most common method, combining the benefits of touch with the healing properties of essential oils for a deep, holistic treatment.
- Other Methods: Essential oils can also be used in baths, compresses, skincare, or inhaled.

It’s a wonderful, warm March introduction to Thomasina Lowe, who offers her breastfeeding and baby feeding expertise at Moon’s monthly New Mama & Parent One-Stop Drop-in.
She also offers so much more, over to Thomasina 👇
Greetings! I’m Thomasina.
I’m a registered lactation consultant and a breastfeeding peer supporter with the @bfnislington Breastfeeding Support Service. I have been a part of the Moon village since the early days, supporting mothers on their feeding journey.
My personal experience of breastfeeding my son, led me to train with the @thebreastfeedingnetworkuk in 2005. I have him to thank for introducing me to a world I didn’t know existed, breastfeeding and the village that comes with it!
Becoming a mother, and navigating the highs and the lows of that journey (which are ongoing!) has been transformative and underpins all the work I do with mothers and their babies.
I currently work at UCLH and the Whittington, run breastfeeding clinics and visit mothers in their homes.
I’ve previously worked as a person-centred counsellor. This has made the transition to supporting mothers a natural progression, supporting the potentially complex psychological demands breastfeeding can create.
I also love teaching – primarily ante-natal breastfeeding workshops. I believe knowledge is power, so equipping mothers with breastfeeding education is essential for a good start on this journey.
I consider it a privilege to support the families I work with during a pivotal point in their lives. Cliched perhaps, but I learned first-hand, as a new mother, that it certainly does take a village to raise a child.
With this in mind, I am also delighted to be part of the @wombandbloomlondon collective, where I teach antenatal breastfeeding education sessions and support mums postnatally with breastfeeding.
My aim is to instil a belief in mothers and families that they are not alone, that with the right guidance, love and care, they will find their way, feeling secure and confident in their choices, and ultimately enjoying being new mothers with their baby.
