Aromatherapy
combines the physical and emotional effects of
gentle massage with the medical and psychotherapeutic
properties of essential oils. It not only alleviates
stress and improves mood but it also is a successful
treatment for many minor disorders for which doctors
cannot always find a gentle solution.
Together with a well-balanced diet, enough exercise,
and a daily intake of plenty of spring water or
herbal teas aromatherapy helps to keep our bodies
in top condition!
Aromatherapy stimulates the immune system,
strengthens resistance to disease and helps to
combat infections. It is especially helpful for
women's problems - PMS, menopausal distress.
It aids digestion - eases constipation
and abdominal spasm - and optimises the functioning
of respiratory system - helps with coughs,
tonsillitis, and sinusitis. It eases muscular
aches and pains and promotes muscle
relaxation and tone. By improving circulation
and lymphatic drainage it helps to eliminate
cellulite and toxins from the body. Aromatherapy
can lower blood pressure, reduces stress
level, will combat insomnia and other stress
related disorders. It can alleviate tension
headaches and helps to deal with different
emotions, such as anxiety, mild depression,
grief, etc.
Many essential oils are also superb skin care
agents - balances sebum and tones complexion -
and can heal athlete's foot, cold sores, ringworm
and scabies. They can be used in hair and
scalp formulas to improve the circulation
of the scalp, prevent dandruff and promote
healthy hair growth. See: aromatherapeutic
remedies and cosmetics.
Aromatherapy
is also extremely useful as a first aid
measure for all the little accidents most likely
to happen at home - minor burns and cuts - and
common problems like sore throat, blocked or stuffy
nose, etc. I can provide you with essential oils
for your 'home use' and I will tell you how to
use them! Please feel free to contact me for an
