AROMATHERAPY
Smells to Soothe Your Mind and Body
APPLICATION OF ESSENTIAL OILS

 

      Aromatherapy is a healing practice utilizing smells and nuances.  It is based on a holistic approach to healing rather than a medical one.  I hope that these Scents I have mentioned below give you a new approach to relaxation and healing. But remember, for serious problems it is still advised to seek medical attention.  Also none of these oils are to be taken internally, or should be placed in the eyes. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.
