AromaTouch is a wonderful nurturing treatment that involves the use of essential oils applied to the body namely the back, head, feet and sometimes hands. A light touch is used to apply the oils and so is not the same as a massage. The oils penetrate deep into the skin and systems in the body. The technique was developed by Dr. David K. Hill, a leading expert on the use of essential oils for medicinal benefit. The technique was created to address four systemic constants: stress, toxic insult, inflammatory response and autonomic imbalance. Recognizing that there are common factors at the foundation of illness in the body, the Aromatouch Technique was developed to manage these systemic constants and return the body to a state of balance or homeostatis.
Because essential oils contain many different healing properties, each oil used in the AromaTouch Technique has been specifically selected for its individual therapeutic benefit and aroma. Aromatouch will enhance essential oil activity and stimulate known body meridian and energy zones while balancing body systems and function.
