This book, first published in 1993 and now in its twelfth (revised) edition, has become a standard work. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to get started with essential oils in a responsible and thoughtful way - at home, in a practice or in a broader healthcare context.

Interest in essential oils has increased dramatically in recent years. These powerful, natural essences offer a wealth of possibilities for those who want to care for the body and mind in a conscious way. Proper use, however, is essential, and that is exactly what this book guides you in.
