Natural product manufacturer Body Bliss has introduced a new aromatherapy app which has been designed to integrate custom aromatherapy alchemy into both spa treatments and spa retail.

The Aroma Design Bar with International Aromatherapy App allows users to create a custom blend, which in-spa “Alchemistas” will then make up for them to use as part of their spa treatment.

In the recently-released SpaFinder Wellness 365 Top Ten Global Spa and Wellness Trend Forecast, “Aromatherapy: Scent With Intent” was highlighted as a top trend for 2014, naming Body Bliss as an innovator.

“The Intentional Aromatherapy App allows the art and science of aromatherapy, which is highly customisable, to be taken to a new level of integration and personalisation for each guest,” said Amy McDonald, principal of hospitality and care specialists Under a Tree Consulting.

Ann Patton, spa director at The Boulders, Waldorf Astoria Resort commented: “The concept is true to our intentions for wellness, and the possibilities for personalisation are almost endless - exactly what our guests are looking for.”
