Aromatherapy

 

Optimum Choices offers aromatherapy treatments 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 treatments.

What is Aromatherapy?flower

    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.

  • 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 treatment. 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.
