French NATURAL AROMATHERAPY

What is French Natural Aromatherapy?
Aromatherapy is the use of natural aromatic plant essences and essential oils to support well-being and help maintain a natural and sustainable lifestyle balance. It is both an art and a science and working with essential oils and aromatic plants is a holistic and dynamic approach to well-being and life. 
Some plant essences contain more than 1000 different molecules. It has taken 4.5 billion years for the earth to produce such wealth and diversity. Nature’s innate contains everything in a state of perfection and total balance that allows to rebalance our body. Plants contain active ingredients in some specific parts; either their leaves, flowers, buds, stems, bark, roots. Each has its own way for collecting, and storing its essence. Rose, jasmine, lavender offer their flowers, bergamot and lemon their fruits, angelica, iris and valerian their roots. The trunks make their contributions by offering their wood like cedar, sandalwood or their sap; frankincense, galbaneum, myrrh, or only their bark like cinnamon ...
Nature is offered to us to be used but cannot be copied. No chromatograph can copy nature in its whole. Nature cannot be patented. ​​

Once you become a Natural Aromatherapist, apply to the International Perfume Foundation Certification as Natural Aromatherapist.
This course is truly thoroughly thought out. It is a bit hard because we must assimilate more new concepts (with all the scientific and lab assessments), but it's a good challenge, and I feel it will prepare us for this profession, what we can expect to encounter. It also gives us in -depth knowledge to gain respect and authority as an aromatherapist, in case we must explain or educate our future clients or consumers about our products. It also makes us investigate more the composition or constituents of essential oils and their effects, that are important to know, for health and safety reasons."
