There’s nothing more relaxing than going to massage parlors after work, or during weekends. Massage parlors are everywhere, as this field grows, so does the demand for massage oils to be used.  So why don’t you give it a try and become a producer to supply their demand and at the same time gain money from it. Just follow our guide to start your own Massage Oil Business at home.

The key to a good massage lies in two things – the skill of the masseuse, and the ingredients of the massage oil used.

People today are so busy that they prefer the convenience that home service companies provide, massages included. So you can sell your oils to these service companies, or simply hire a few extra people and open your own service.

Materials Needed

• Any bottle that holds between 4 fluid ounces and 8 fluid ounces, depending on how much you would like to make. Amber glass is preferred because the colored glass protects the contents form ultraviolet rays that can cause oxidation and degradation.
• 6 teaspoons of carrier oil (examples are sweet almond, grape seed, and canola)
• 8 drops of essential oil

How To Make the Massage Oil

1. First, decide on the purpose of your oil. Is it to relax? To create a sensuous mood? This is to determine which essential oil to use. For example, lavender and jasmine are used for relaxation, while the citruses (i.e. lemon and lime) and mints (i.e. peppermint) are for energizing.
2. Once you’ve decided, select one or more of the essential oils.
3. Pour one-two tablespoons of the carrier oil into a low, shallow bowl, and add a few drops of the selected oil or oils, swirling the bowl around to blend. If you make more oil than you need, pour remainder into small stoppered bottle – essential oils are very volatile and will evaporate out of the blend if left uncovered in the open air.
4. Pour your finished oil into your amber bottle and close the lid tightly.

How Much Will I Make

You can put a markup of as much as 200 percent, whether it’s a 10 or 100 ml bottle. You may even make a set of different formulations and sell them as a gift pack for a higher price.
