Aromac Toolkit Workshop

During this intensive two day
workshop Mark will show par cipants
a uniquely new way of looking at the
vast array of aroma cs available for
aroma c therapies. This workshop is
open to students and prac oners of
aromatherapy as well as naturopaths
and herbalists.
Following on from the concepts laid
down in previous workshops of the
series (Aroma c Chemistry, Internal &
External Dose Forms), Mark will draw
together aroma cs under their main
chemical groups to highlight their
similar therapeu c uses and also point
out their dierences. This deeper
understanding of the unique nuances
of each aroma c allows for example,
easy subs tu on when prescribing
and formula ng i.e. when to use
Sweet Fennel instead of Star Anise or
Aniseed.
This level of subtle informa on along
with appropriate dose forms and
applica on methods will allow even
new aroma c prac oners to refine
their formula ons to be more eec ve
regardless of the condi on or disease
being treated.
