Re: Essential Oils in Massage Therapy

As a wholistic practitioner of essential oils for 14 years and more recently a student for the last one and half. A member of NAHA, CFA, and BCAPAP and AAPA. The success of essential oils in massage is outstanding with my family. The range of ages of family members engaged in essential oil ranges from 5 years to 82 years old.

As a family group we have been using them for 13 years. One family member has had 28 operations on his bowel due to an car accident originally. He has used them for 8 years daily and he enjoys the best of health considering his condition. Although it is not without extreme care daily he is functioning at a high level of activity - a logger on his own land.

The youngest member of the family calls them 'flower baths' and often request them in her earlier years to relax and sleep.

We have conquered a bone spur, chronic inflammation and fungi infections and keep the bugs that bite away. Needless to say we are committed to the use of essential oils and hope others will enjoy what we as a family have shared for years as a healthy alternative and complement to our health needs. lniles@telus.net
