Optimum
Choices offers aromatherapy sessions for you and your
pets. Essential oil
usage has been document from ancient times well before the Bible was
written in China and India. Essential oil uses can even include
cleansing the body of evil deities (by the ancient Egyptians). Today we
might call these evil deities emotional trauma or bad attitudes. Modern
day aromatherapy began during World War II. What the media calls
aromatherapy is typically not true aromatherapy. For instance, those
plug-in "aromatherapy" devices that heat essential oils to freshen up a
room IS NOT aromatherapy because heat kills all therapeutic value of
essential oils. The same misconception applies to any essential oils
heated by a candle. Aromatherapy is actually a practicing science in
Europe and some French medical insurance policies actually pay for
aromatherapy sessionss. For more information and to schedule an

What is Aromatherapy?
Aromatherapy is the inhalation
or application of plant-derived essential oils to the body.
Aromatherapy Session
Essential oils work on all levels of the body.
Before any permanent physical changes can be accomplished, the emotional, mental
and spiritual bodies must be brought into harmony. An assessment is first done
regarding the current status of the physical body and any health challenges are
noted. Priorities are discussed and then a plan of action is mutually decided
on.
Some
applications include:
Inhalation
Diffusing
Bath
Massage
Acupressure
Topical application
Integration with other therapies
Emotional Clearing Session
The connection between emotional stress and illness
has long been established. But we are just beginning to understand the role of
childhood events, emotional trauma, and negative emotional patterns on the rest
of our lives. It was only recently (1989, New York Medical University) that
scientists have discovered the role of the amygdala gland in storing and
releasing emotional trauma. Since the amygdala gland is sensitive to scents,
aromas can be used to effect the release
of emotional traumas and patterns.
Are you experiencing:
Chronic illness
Lack of abundance
Stuck in an old job
Inability to lose weight
Blocks in manifesting your dream
Inability to make a career transition
Repeating the same relationship patterns
Perhaps there is an emotional component that needs
to be addressed first. Sessions can include either an auricular technique, where
oils are applied on the acupressure points of the ear, or application of oils on
the energy centers of the body (feet and torso) accompanied with a short
meditation.
Raindrop Technique
The
Raindrop Technique was developed by D. Gary Young, aromacologist, as a
powerful, non-invasive tool for assisting the body in maintaining the proper
structural and electrical alignment in the spine. The Raindrop Technique
integrates Vita Flex massage with the power of essential oils.
Recent scientific research shows that
microorganisms lodged near the spinal cord can contribute to spinal deformities.
Since essential oils are immune enhancing and support the body's natural
defenses, this technique creates an environment that's hostile to these
microorganisms. A sequence of single oils and oil blends are dispensed like
raindrops on the back and then massaged along the spine and back muscles. The
session is extremely relaxing. Although the entire process takes about one hour,
the profound effects can last up to one week after the session. Once the body
is back in balance, optimum health can be restored.
History of Aromatherapy
Ancient priests and physicians from different
cultures were using essential oils thousands of years before the time of Christ.
There are 188 references to essential oils in the Bible. The ancient Egyptians
were the first to discover the true potential of fragrance and essential oils.
The Egyptians believed one could not pass on to the next life until the body was
cleansed of
evil deities (emotional trauma
or bad attitudes). They used
essential oils for religious rituals and medicine. Egyptian high priests
understood the value of fragrance for opening up the subconscious mind and
elevating their ability to communicate with the spirit world. Medieval
thieves
protected themselves from the plague using oils and spices. A French medical
doctor used essential oils during World War II to reduce and even stop
infections on the battlefield.
