Aromatherapy is currently a popular "delicacy" in teachers to spice up their seminars or give them a new name. First contrast is nothing wrong if a responsible and professional manner dealt with it is. Unfortunately this is not always the case, as reported to me a course participant on Monday:
This was at a seminar attended for basal stimulation was in this seminar, then the invigorating wash presented and the students they should now try using a hand-bath for yourself. This was all a small bowl (smaller than the basins in nursing homes) with very warm water, condensed milk and a portion pack Lemon oil. Each of the participants was asked to give the coffee cream to now in the sink and then go in "a few" drops of lemon oil to complain then ....... many of the students inside of a burning and itchy skin and connected to their work area to wash with essential oils off!!
By these and similar situations, then get the essential oils and their applications again and again in a very bad light, although it is clearly the fault of the speaker was to carry out this application Sun
The Basics of aroma nursing education is one among others, the proper emulsification and the knowledge about how the individual oils . Act
emulsification is necessary to establish a connection between water and essential oil manufacture, because essential oils are lipophilic (fat loving g) but not water soluble, so they must zurerst be dissolved in a suitable emulsifier, and then be added to the bath water.
emulsifiers should not be synthetic. As natural emulsifiers provide appropriate cream to fat milk, sea salt, evaporated milk or honey.
As for the burning and itching of the skin in the course participants can do this with the somewhat vague amount of drops of lemon oil in the well to do have very warm water.
Basically you need for washing 2 - 3 drops of essential oil emulsified!
particularly citrus oils sensitive people may cause burning and tingling on the skin, as these because of their high monoterpene content, especially in connection with warm water can be irritating to skin. This risk is less if we do ablutions, because skin is not, as with a bath (here in this case a hand bath), for a long time in contact with the water.
I find it very unfortunate if by such errors caused by ignorance, the aroma care unit in a bad light! The simplest basics should master teachers / instructors of other disciplines at least when combined with essential applications Oils in their seminars to pass on to humans.
