Aromatherapy Practitioner Reference Manual

[Guest guest]

Hi y'all,

 

In another post .. in response to Sandi's inquiry on Sage, Chris made

mention of the above referenced publication .. she wrote:

 

> Also, there is a listing for it in Syllah's AT Practitioner Reference

> Manual ... A must have book!

 

And I agree with her. I have made my position (and Sylla's too .. I

think) clear on the fact that it is NOT perfect .. but again I say that

it is the most complete compilation of data on use of essential oils

available in the aromatherapy/essential oils world today .. its a fine

reference publication and I believe that it and Plant Aromatics are the

two everyone who is serious about AT/EO should have beside their desk.

 

The two basic reference sets I sell .. that is, keeping them in stock

myself .. are one " Plant Aromatics " and the other is:

 

Sylla Shepherd-Hanger's " Aromatherapy Practitioner Reference Manual " in

two volumes. This is for the novice and the expert as it tells you most

of what you need to know about each essential oil property ... each one

is broken out into headings like these twelve - in columns:

 

Botanical/Common Name - Plant Part - Family - Origin - Distill Method

Specific Biochemicals

Traditional & Esoteric Uses

Integumentary, Skin/Hair and Nails

Respiratory

Muscular & Skeletal

Cardiovascular and Lymphatic

Immune

Digestive

Endocrine

Genito-Urinary and Reproductive

Nervous/Brain/Mind

Safety Data

 

It's a VERY handy reference set and I use mine daily - keep them beside

my desk. It's not cheap but if one considers the information in it and

compares that information to a stack of the unreferenced novels out and

about - we will find it far less costly and far more valuable. You can

review and/or order it at http://www.AV-AT.com/manual01.html

 

Y'all keep smiling. :-) Butch http://www.AV-AT.com
