Today's topic is Aromatherapy Oil.
"In actuality, the oils exert much of their therapeutic effect through their pharmacological properties and their small molecular size, making them one of the few therapeutic agents to easily penetrate the bodily tissues."
-Dr. (rer. nat.) Kurt Schnaubelt, Director of the Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy
"The chemical makeup of essential oils gives them a host of desirable pharmacological properties ranging from antibacterial, antiviral, and antispasmodic, to uses as diuretics (promoting production and excretion of urine), vasodilators (widening blood vessels), and vasoconstrictors (narrowing blood vessels). Essential oils act on the adrenals, ovaries, and the thyroid and can energize or pacify, detoxify, and facilitate the digestive process."
-Dr. (rer. nat.) Kurt Schnaubelt, Director of the Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy
"Because the oils work in a different way from antibiotics, they do not have the usual side effects, and they tend to stimulate the immune system instead of depressing it."
-Robert Tisserand, of London, England
"Oils of cinnamon and eucalyptus are as powerful against some microorganisms as conventional antibiotics, and are especially effective against flus. Sandalwood oil from Mysore, India, is not only a classic perfume oil but is also a traditional remedy for sore throats and laryngitis. Lavender oil, so often used in toilet waters and scented sachets, has a dramatic healing action on burns."
-Robert Tisserand, of London, England
"Whenever the specific pain indicating the recurrence of the lesions occurs, oils are applied before the outbreak of the lesion and more often than not the outbreak is prevented. After repeating this procedure three to four times, herpes simplex typically stops recurring."
-Dr. Kurt Schnaubelt, Director of the Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy
"Another effective use of essential oils is the topical treatment fo shingles, a painful skin virus...drastic improvements and complete remission occur within seven days."
-Dr. Kurt Schnaubelt, Director of the Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy
"Because of their very strong local anti-inflammatory action, these oils [clove, cinnamon, and thyme] often reduce arthritis symptoms within moments of application."
-Dr. Kurt Schnaubelt, Director of the Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy
"Essential oils should be called 'essential oils'. If names are used that sound evasive, such as 'pure botanical perfume' or 'pure fragrance essence', that is an indication that the supplier is aware that the oils are not true essential oils."
-Dr. Kurt Schnaubelt, Director of the Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy
"Pure essential oils are expensive. Often one thousand pounds of plant are needed to produce one pound of essence...if every oil in a line carries the same price tag, this is a sure sign of large-scale homogenization and adulteration for the production of sheer fragrance oils as opposed to essential oils...the prices of essential oils can differ."
-Dr. Kurt Schnaubelt, Director of the Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy
"With the increasing demand for holistic health care and the 'green revolution', the demand for aromatherapy will increase, and hopefully we will reach the point where medical doctors incorporate it into their repertoire. It will become routine for doctors to send culture samples to the pharmacist for testing, and identify the relevant aromatherapy for the patient. The stress-relieving properties associated with aromatherapy make it an indispensable part of health care."
-Robert Tisserand, of London, England
"For many common infectious diseases aromatherapy offers more effective and more wholesome solutions than conventional medicine."
-Dr. (rer. nat.) Kurt Schnaubelt, Director of the Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy
"If aromatherapy was allowed to compete only on its merit it would be a great competitor for a variety of aspects of conventional medicine. Much of the future of aromatherapy will be determined through political processes."
-Dr. (rer. nat.) Kurt Schnaubelt, Director of the Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy
"The powers in the medical 'market' will try to keep aromatherapy out because it threatens profits to the conventional medical establishment. However, the demand of the consumer for more and better access to alternative methods will continue to offset such vested interests and should do much to make aromatherapy more popular as a healing modality."
-Dr. (rer. nat.) Kurt Schnaubelt, Director of the Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy
Happy Drawing! :)
