What is Aromatherapy?
Aromatherapy is the science of using essential oils to support the balance of the physical, psychological and spiritual, body, and spirit. Volatile aromatic compounds are naturally found in certain plant parts of some species and through a process called distillation the essential oil is captured and bottled.
The practice of aromatherapy is a hands-on therapy where the qualified aromatherapist first assesses the needs of the client and then decides on what blend is best for the given circumstance. Blends may be diffused into the air, inhaled through the nostrils using an inhaler, or applied topically and are developed based on what is most suitable to the client. Aromatherapy seeks to enhance an individual’s innate healing process by promoting the health of body, mind and spirit.
I offer aromatherapy consultations, during which a health history is assessed to understand states of balance and imbalance. Using this information, and working with you, I prepare a custom plan to integrate aromatherapy into your lifestyle. Follow-up visits will evaluate progress and build on the initial plan. I consider my clients and myself to be a team working together to maintain and promote well-being.

Educational Classes
I offer classes on aromatherapy. These classes are varying lengths and are purely educational. Participants receive a manual, we discuss specific essential oils related to the topic of the class, and participants also make blends themselves with my guidance. My goal is to share knowledge on how to use essential oils and to also give participants the experience of making blends.
If you are interested in having me come to you to teach an aromatherapy class to your organization, business, or group of friends then please contact me here.
