Medical Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy affects our psychological state, creating calmness or alertness, concentration or relaxation as anyone can attest to after smelling a rose or peppermint oil.Contrary to popular opinion, aromatherapy does not have to be inhaled to be effective. Aromatherapy is a type of treatment and not a system of medicine. It used in most systems of treatments. Physicians regularly used aromatherapy up until the 1950’s. Lavender and peppermint essential oils are still recognized as drugs by the FDA to this day. Many products you use everyday have essential oils in them, such as toothpaste, Gold Bond ointment®, Vic’s Vaporub® and Listerine® mouthwash.

During a session, the clinical aromatherapist gets to know you as a person rather than simply catalogue a list of symptoms and treat a disease.
