The
Complete Book of Essential Oils and Aromatherapy
Valerie
Ann Worwood
There are plenty of
good books on herbs, and some of them devote a chapter to
essential oils, but there's nothing comparable to Worwood's
work. Her premise is different from other herbalists--she
believes that the most effective way to use herbs medicinally
is by external application or inhalation. Both methods allow
the essential oil to enter the bloodstream without passing
through the digestive tract. Worwood runs an aromatherapy clinic in England
and conducts research on aromatherapy. Her book prescribes
oils for everything from basic first aid and treating common
ailments to natural cosmetics and body care, fragrance for the
home and office, and cooking with essential oils.
