Publisher: Healing Arts Press
Subject: The work discusses all things aromatic,
from choosing, blending, and storing essential oils to planning
the aromatherapeutic garden as a place to relax and renew.
The author includes complete profiles of oils safe for home
use and practical and inspiring tips for readers to develop
their own intuitive senses. The numerous therapeutic uses
of aromatherapy are applied to ten major body systems with
specific remedies given for more than seventy health concerns,
ranging from colds, muscular aches, and indigestion to stress,
menopause, and depression. Color photographs illustrate step-by-step
a full-body aromatherapy massage and are accompanied by complete
instructions for choosing and preparing suitable massage oils.
The author presents techniques for massaging pregnant women,
babies, children and elderly people as well as creative suggestions
for using aromatherapy to enhance massage for couples. There
is also a helpful section concerning sports injuries and even
a chapter devoted to aromatherapy for pets. Though extremely
useful for the beginner, this comprehensive presentation is
also an invaluable addition to the library of the more serious
student and professional practitioner of aromatherapy.
