Aromatherapy Workshops

Join Dr. Joie Power for in-depth classes that provide a solid foundation in the basic practices of aromatherapy and the actions of essential oils. This aromatherapy seminar combines solid scientific data, practical clinical techniques and a holistic approach that honors body, mind, and spirit.

You'll Learn How to Safely Use 36 or more Essential Oils in Levels I, II & III (Two Days Each)

Joie Power, Ph.D. begins the Level I Aromatherapy Workshop with an overview of aromatherapy and its place in modern herbalism followed by an easy-to-understand explanation of the physiological actions of essential oils, with an emphasis on their effect on the central nervous system. We'll look at practical methods for using essential oils including a comparison of the effectiveness of internal vs. external use (you'll be surprised!) and step-by-step guidelines for safe and effective external use. You'll learn how essential oils act on viral and bacterial infections, pain, inflammation, emotional distress and other conditions. The aromatherapy workshop includes in-depth discussion of some of the most versatile essential oils including lavender, rosemary, eucalyptus, tea tree, peppermint, thyme and chamomile and more with a wide range of applications for common health issues. During this aromatherapy workshop, drawing from her 20-plus years of study and practice, Dr. Power shares priceless information about how these essential oils are used in medical settings.
