Essential Oils, Nature’s Intelligence in a Bottle

Aromatherapy has become a very popular and commercialized word. But what is really meant by the term “aromatherapy?”

Authentic Aromatherapy is a comprehensive healthcare modality that utilizes therapeutic plant extracts called “essential oils” to evoke the body’s own intrinsic healing power. Essential oils support the body in achieving what it does naturally -- seeking homeostasis, balance, and optimal health.

The therapeutic principles of Botanical Medicine and Phyto-Aromatherapy support all the body's systems.  This is a vastly different concept of aromatherapy than the current commercial idea of "recreational" aromatherapy (candles, bubble bath, etc).

Surprisingly, Aromatherapy is not chiefly about aroma but rather the processes that occur in the body after its application. Using extracts of aromatic medicinal plants called "essential oils," Aromatherapy facilitates the body's own healing power at the cellular level, allowing the body to balance, repair, and restore itself to health.

Modern science has found that essential oils are highly unique substances and that they may address some of the unmet challenges of today's healthcare. Scientific studies confirm that aromatherapy oils may calm, energize, balance, rejuvenate, repair, and purify the mind and body. Essential oils may help reduce pain and inflammation, ease stress, boost the immune system, act as quick intervention for colds and flu, combat mold and airborne germs, neutralize toxins, and more.  Dr. Andrew Weil says aromatherapy is the most exciting of all the complementary healthcare modalities.

In Europe, aromatherapy is accepted as part of customary healthcare, both preventive and curative.

Geranium Essential Oil (pelargonium graveolens)

Geranium possesses an exquisite aroma that is earthy, green and rose-like.  So beautiful, it can be worn as a natural perfume.

We refer to it as "the great equalizer," as it may profoundly impact the emotions and many physical conditions. This aromatic oil may help calm nerves, uplift the spirit (antidepressant), balance hormones, and help one to cope with pain. It may be effective for numerous female issues including easing heavy menstrual cycles.

For cuts and wounds, it may temporarily increase bleeding to cleanse the wound, then stop the bleeding. Geranium essential oil also supports and maintains beautiful, healthy skin. It is a very valuable essential oil to have on hand. Ask us how to buy it and for specific methods of usage.
