Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

"The way to health is to have an aromatic bath and scented massage every day," proclaimed Hippocrates well over 2,000 years ago. The 1990s have marked a growing interest in the use and application of aromatic oils derived from plants, and Practical Art of Aromatherapy serves as an excellent introduction to this fragrant, healing world. Explore the qualities of different oils, from the calming, soothing effects of lavender to the invigorating and stimulating properties of lemon, and experiment with a wide variety of therapeutic applications. Choose from a diverse set of recipes (or invent your own) to create perfumes, fragrances for the home, bath and massage oils, and lotions and ointments for a variety of body needs. This attractively illustrated book is both practical and easy to reference; its compact size ensures that it will fit conveniently next to aromatherapy enthusiasts' ever-growing collection of essential oils. --Matthew Reid-Schwartz

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful resource for any aromatherapy lover., May 22, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Practical Art of Aromatherapy (Hardcover)
I am a lover of scented potpourri and candles and wanted to learn more about essential oils without getting overwelmed. This book gave me wonderful ideas and how-to's without the feeling that I have so much more to learn. I refer back to it constantly and every time I enjoy the beautiful pictures and backgrounds. It's an easy read and includes a conversion table in the front that I found very useful. I would recommend this book to beginners and authorities in aromatherapy because it's such an informative and creative book.

5.0 out of 5 stars The ultimate aromatherapy book, November 4, 2000
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Practical Art of Aromatherapy (Hardcover)
I read this book at a library and just could not put it down. She includes healing tactics, soothing recipes, and even stuff for kids. I was amazed at how fun aromatherapy could be. I use recipes from her book and others, but hers have proven to be the most successful in what they are supposed to do. I know that any aromatherapy fan would love to have this book.
