Aromatherapy

"Smells coat us, swirl around us, enter our bodies, emanate from us. We live in a constant wash of them."

Diane Ackerman

Aromatherapy has been used for thousands of years by Egyptians, Asians and Europeans to promote the well-being of the body. Egyptians were among the first practitioners to experience the overwhelming benefits of using concentrated plant extracts. Aromatic oils were key ingredients in their cosmetics for the benefits they produced when used on their skin. The oils may be used in a variety of ways. When inhaled, the aromatic molecules travel through the nostrils where they encounter the olfactory nerves. These nerves are the only sensory pathway traveling directly to the brain. Here they have the ability to influence hormones that regulate body temperature, metabolism, stress levels, sex drive, conscious thoughts and actions.

For centuries, essential oils have been recognized for the amazing things they do for the body. Discover for yourself the benefits of essential oil blends to enhance your health and overall well-being!

Aromatherapy involves using essential oils (concentrated plant extracts) to promote emotional and physical well-being. Aromatherapy works with your body gently, in a holistic manner, activating your body's own healing energies. It compliments any form of therapy you are currently using.

Used externally, the oils are absorbed immediately in the skin and travel directly to the blood stream. From here they have the ability to help balance hormones, relieve aches and pains, headaches, boost your immune system ......the list is endless.
