Quatrième de couverture:

More and more people are discovering the benefits of essential oils. However, while the oils are safe in the hands of trained therapists, many consumers could be asking for trouble if not forewarned about the oils' various properties.

This directory is a guide to using essential oils safely, healthfully and wisely. It includes all those in popular use, as well as many more unusual oils. Each oil is extensively categorised, including helpful information about its:

aroma and sources

history and myths

properties and precautions

chemical constituents

effects on the mind, body and skin

use in blends

With an extensive glossary and blending chart, The Directory of Essential Oils is a ready reckoner that no aromatherapist should be without.

'The research put into the production of this book is mind-boggling, making it the most comprehensive collection of facts relating to essential oils ever offered with aromatherapists in mind ... and contains much information that is not readily available from other sources. A real "must" for every aromatherapist's bookshelf.' Aromatherapy Quarterly
