Guest guest Posted July 3, 2003 Report Share Posted July 3, 2003 Yo Kathleen, > So Butch... > What IS Aromatherapy >she asked with a nasty nasty nasty grin<? Take your choice. 1. A mislead cottage-industry where folks generally misuse essential oils and make wild ass claims to sell more essential oils or write unreferenced novels using bibliographies and making folks think that a that laundry list of other unreferenced novels the writer might have never seen is something a legitimate list of references. 2. The introduction of odors into the human body for the purpose of calming, invigorating, preventing illness, strengthening the immune system and even kicking the butts of big bad bugs. From purely a point of physiological effect therapeutic value is there whether we can smell it or not .. from a psychological and sometimes overlapped emotional point there is therapeutic value in the fact that we like the odor .. never discount the therapeutic value of horse manure to a good ol boy who was raised on a cattle ranch and now lives in Detroit .. or the odor of Roses to one who received their first kiss .. or the news of their father's death .. whilst in a rose garden. In many cases it matters not if we like it .. for example .. the carvacrol in oregano will kick big bad bug butt even if you can't smell it. 3. An English word that was derived from a French word. 4. A combination of the above. ;-p > Cheers! > Kathleen Petrides > The Woobey Queen > Woobeys: The Loving Touch Therapeutic Pillow > http://www.woobeyworld.com Y'all keep smiling. :-) Butch http://www.AV-AT.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
