Essential Oils

Aromatherapy is the practice of using natural oils extracted from flowers, bark, stems, leaves, roots or other parts of a plant to enhance psychological, spiritual and physical well-being.  Oils are extracted from plants through steam distillation or cold-pressed techniques. Although, Dennis’s book, Chinese Medicine and Aromatherapy, concentrates on how to use essential oils using the Chinese principles of healing and acupuncture. Anyone practicing Aromatherapy will benefit from the wealth of information on chemistry, application, Chinese Medicine concepts and specific oils for emotional, spiritual and physical well being.
