doTERRA Essential Oils

What are essential oils? Essential oils are the essence of a plant, a gift from the earth, distilled and prepared for you to bring the power of nature into your home. When you use essential oils, you'll have more natural solutions and fewer toxins, synthetically manufactured products in your life and home.

I have started using essential oils in my daily routine, supporting my health and sharing the benefits with my family, by diffusing, applying topically, and taking them internally. Apart from the lovely smell these oils provide, I am enjoying the support they provide for my daily well-being. 

doTERRA oils are very effective during pregnancy, birth, and beyond and I share my ongoing learning and knowledge with my clients as we work together.

Aromatouch Massage

The AromaTouch Technique combines the use of CPTG Certified Pure Tested Grade™ essential oils and a well-documented application technique to support overall wellbeing and increase the benefits you experience with essential oils.

I give each of my Birth Clients a Aromatouch massage once they are home with baby, settled and on a day that suits them. I do this in the comfort of their home, in a surroaunding they feel safe in and baby is not far away.
