Due to very popular demand, I am back in production, hand-making my aromatherapy sprays. I make a very effective insect repellent, a lavender blend and a citrus blend. Closer to Christmas, I will make the cinnamon blend again. Please see the Products page for descriptions and ordering info.
Aromatherapy is Mother Nature’s pharmacy. It refers to the therapeutic use of essential oils. The oils are extracted from flowers, fruits, leaves, roots, grasses, woods and spices. These oils are like the ‘blood’ of the plant, carrying all the nutrients and protective elements. The plant essences are most commonly extracted by steam distillation; however, citrus oils are extracted via cold expression.
I fully endorse, use and sell Young Living Essential Oils. They are grown/harvested and distilled by Dr. Gary Young. They are the only oils pure enough and potent enough to earn them their own category of Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils. Anything else you buy (even from a health food store) is not guaranteed to be 100% pure with no fillers or additives. That is why you should *never* ingest any oils other than Young Living Essential Oils. YL oils are pure enough to use on babies and in your food.
I would be happy to give you and your family an essential oils complimentary workshop on how to use essential oils in your daily life. It is vitally important that we all use them daily. Young Living oils have been shown in over 50 independent university and hospital studies to fight cancer, shrink tumors and eliminate mold (many doctors agree that mold/fungus is the cause of cancer). We live in a time when 50% of the population will get cancer. We owe it to ourselves and our families to reduce this risk as much as possible. Daily use of essential oils is a simple preventive measure.
The chemical properties of each essential oil determine its primary action and each oil has distinct healing properties. When the oils are applied topically, they are absorbed by the skin and enter the bloodstream. This is why you must use the highest quality oils. They enhance the functions of the organs and systems to which they correspond. For instance, when certain oils are used in skin care, they regulate capillary activity and work to restore tissue.
Inhaling the scent of an essential oil has a pronounced effect on the mind and body as well. The sense of smell is strongly linked to memory. Therefore, using essential oils when clearing trauma is highly effective. I use them with EFT and BEAM Therapy and get great results. It helps the healing ‘stick.’ When the olfactory and physical senses are combined the outcome is even better.
During an Aromatherapy massage treatment, you receive a massage with an oil combination blended just for you, once you have consulted about your current symptoms and concerns. A session of this very popular treatment lasts one hour. You may feel the positive effects immediately, or within a few days after treatment.

*It is very important to note that essential oils are medicine. In France, for instance, doctors give patients a choice before writing prescriptions: Natural or synthetic? Natural means essential oils will be ingested, synthetic means drugs. What an advanced, holistic society!
The power of this natural medicine must be respected and approached with knowledge. For these reasons, it is recommended that you see an aromatherapist, particularly if you are pregnant, asthmatic, have low/high blood pressure or have any allergies.
That is why I would like to teach you to take care of yourself and your family. Contact me now to book your free aromatherapy workshop.
