Essential Oils Therapy

Essential oils are powerful aromatic extracts from flowers, leaves, bark, roots, needles, peel and wood. They have been used for centuries to promote physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being.

A French chemist, Rene Maurice Gattefosse started researching the therapeutic properties of essential oils after he discovered their healing powers following an explosion in his lab. He burnt his hand severely and dipped it in a bucket full of water and lavender essential oil, thinking it was just water and was gobsmacked to feel the pain subside and subsequently a speedy healing with no scarring!

Essential oils are absorbed by our bodies via the skin, once diluted in a carrier oil (base oil) or via inhalation. They are amazing at relieving stress and anxiety, depression, insomnia, chronic headaches, physical pain, digestive and skin issues and more. They can even be used as a tool to help quit smoking! Essential oils offer the added benefit to present no side effects, providing they are of very high quality and used with care.

Essential oils therapy is well established in France and GP’s use these oils to help their patients.
