Massage Oil Supplier

[Poster]

Hi
I am looking for suppliers who provide massage oils at competitive prices - who do you guys use ? Who do you recommend ? who don't you recommend because of £££ or poor service ?
many thanks

I've been very pleased with Physique stuff - I order it in 5litre bottles at £40 - 500mls is around £7. www.physique.co.uk (if that is OK Mods?)

I was surprised to learn from another therapist recently who worked at a TOP spa that they went to a wholesaler got the biggest vat of grapeseed oil they could find - rebottled it and even sold it with a huge mark up!

I guess it depends what you're using the oil for - as a massage medium or for it's therapeutic value. In my opinion if it's purely as a massage medium then expensive, pre-blended stuff is not really necessary.

I buy most of my oils from Amphora. The pre-blended oils are excellent quality and if you register as a "trade" customer you will save loads on the normal retail prices.

I use Baseformula- reasonable prices, good quality, good service!

I have found that a company called Essentially Oils is very good. Their website isn't great but don't let that put you off! They have a wide range of products from base oils, to aromatherapy oils and accessories too.

I,ve been using a company called Mantra Aromatherapy, and they sell preblended massage oils, and other complementary therapy products at really great prices.

Are you are talking about carrier oils, without essential oils or a blend of essential oils added to it? I buy organic base oils from healthfood shops and mix up my own using sunflower oil predominently with 2% of either olive oil (cold pressed organic) or sesame oil. As an aromatherapist I customise my own blends to suit.

I did in the past buy sweet almond oil from a company, but now prefer my own blend.

I've seen reasonable oils for sale on e-bay but haven't ever bought any from a supplier on e-bay. Physique are good - both product wise and delivery wise. They'll also include little samples with your delivery if you ask nicely with your order.

I use Physique's Water Dispersible Massage oil. It really helps with the laundry. They are currently doing a 'buy 3 get 1 free' offer.

I use that too. I also use their massage lotion which I find better than any other I've tried.

 

[Rone]

Yes, their lotion is lovely. Great glide without being too slippery and a pleasant, subtle smell.

I buy from Zamya - you can order through their site or from Ebay. Their service is superb and the oils are really nice.

I buy all my base oils and essential oils from phytobotanica. Good website and very quick service. I also understand Penny price is good,
