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 advice or friendly chat!

fennel  

Oestrogen Boost
Fennel tea helps to regulate hormonal change, and boosts oestrogen levels during the menopause. Clinical studies have demonstrated that fennel oil is estrogenic. (see M.Lis-Balchin, Aromascience, p.84) The essential oil of clary sage has also been found to be estrogenic.

Fennel used to be regarded as anti-venomous (against snake bites and scorpions), by the Chinese and Hindus; and was also used as a slimming agent - due to its diuretic properties.


rose  
Rose is good for your skin
Clinical studies and case histories have shown Tea tree oil, camomile oil and rose oil to be effective in various forms of dermatitis and eczema.

Camomile and rose oil have also been used clinically in the treatment of radio-dermatitis (burned, red and sore skin caused by radiotherapy).

peppermint  
Bronchitis Relief
Chronic bronchitis has been successfully treated by inhalations of peppermint, lavender and sage mixture.
