Aromatherapy has been practiced in one form or another since the beginning of civilization. Aromatherapy is the art and science of using oils extracted from aromatic plants to enhance health and beauty. Apart from aromatherapy's physical benefits, essential oils can have effects on the mind and emotions. The oils taken from plants used in aromatherapy have been described as a "life force" that is essential to their biological processes. The oils are also the substances that give plants their scent. The oxygenating molecules in essential oils can help the body receive and assimilate nutrients for maintaining health. Without oxygen, nutrients cannot be assimilated, which leaves us nutritionally depleted.
Studies have shown that essential oils can increase cellular oxygen and promote immune function. At the Medical University in Geneva, Switzerland, medical doctors Jean Claude Lapraz and Paul Duraffourd teach the treatment of respiratory diseases with essential oils. There are many other research studies, which show the healing benefit of aromatherapy.
Here at the Foundation, we offer a combination of aromatherapy with different therapies to maximize healing potential. Since everybody has a unique body chemistry, these oils are custom-designed for your body chemistry to provide the greatest benefit.
