aromatherapy in childbirth

[Guest guest]

Dear all,

 

You may be interested in some work that we have undertaken in Oxford. Over the

course of

8 years over we assessed the effectiveness of aromatherapy during childbirth in

over

8000 mothers. We think that this is one of the largest studies ever reported

within

the field of complementary medicine. We are very excited about the results.

 

Mothers reported that the oils were very beneficial. We also found that 2

particular oils had the effect of dulling pain which meant that the mothers

needed no

additional pain relief.

 

I am sure that thiswill come as no suprise to many of the rs to this

list

but the medical fraternity here were amazed. The study has actually made our

national press.

 

If anyone is interested in reading any more about this then you can visit our

Thanks for the interest,

 

 

best wishes,
