AromaTouch uses the subtle power of plant medicines and chemical structures found in essential oils. It is a clinical approach to applying essential oils along the energy meridians to balance the nervous system, reduce physical pain and support the immune system. The AromaTouch technique was developed by Dr David K Hill, a leading expert in integrative medicine and therapeutic applications of essential oils. This technique focuses on balancing the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system of the body by applying essential oils along the meridians (energy channels) and contact points of the back and feet that relate to key organs. Aromatouch is not a regular full body massage, it is a 45 minute to 1 hour treatment. The essential oils applied along energy lines and reflexology points stimulates homeostasis and balance the body.

Why Essential Oils?
We know that pharmaceuticals are derived as a synthetic approach to nature's cures. Essential oils are highly compounded extracts made from pure plant medicine. Our bodies absorb essential oils within minutes through our skin and the olfactory system. Many essential oils have the power to pass the blood brain barrier resulting in a deep therapeutic effect. It is therefore critical to provide the safest, most pure essential oils available in the market today. Andrea uses the highest quality oils which have undergone Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry testing. This GCMS testing insures that only those constituents that belong in the oil are present, and that no synthetic compounds or contaminants were added or collected to make the oil.
