Essential Oil Therapy at the New Earth Center

Tennessee Healing Arts Center, The New Earth Center located in Hendersonville Tennessee offers Essential Oil Therapy. Essential Oil Therapy is a dynamic healing modality that works at a cellular, molecular level as well as on an emotional, psychological level.

Essential Oil Therapy is an ancient healing art utilizing the distillation process of plant materials to extract powerful concentrated essential oils. These oils have been effectively used around the world for centuries for therapeutic purposes such as fighting infection, strengthening the immune system, reducing emotional and mental stress and providing a basis for preventative medicine. This field is recognized and practiced in Europe by physicians, nurses and hospitals. Essential Oil Therapy complements other Health Care Modalities, both Western & Eastern.

As early as 400 B.C., Ancient Egyptian healers put small herbal cones under a patient's headdress. As the cones melted, their curative oils were absorbed through the scalp and healing vapors were inhaled.

In pre-Columbian Mexico, the sick visited huts filled with tiny indoor pools. While the water was heated to high temperatures, rocks were scattered about the pools and, on them, healers laid flowers or herbs. Hours later, as steam penetrated the plants, curative vapors were inhaled. And when the plants' sticky oils collected on the stony surfaces, the fragrant ointment was sometimes massaged into the body.

This century, essential oil therapies have again enjoyed great appeal. In the 1920's, Italian scientists documented their bacteria-destroying capacities and their ability to impact the nervous system. During the 1930's, French chemist Rene-Maurice Gattefosse coined the phrase aromatherapy, to describe therapeutic inhalation of essential oils. During the 40's, French physician Dr. Jean Valnet used them in ointment form to disinfect and heal war injuries.

More recently, research has revealed that a plant's essential oil regulates its hormone system and protects it against disease. Scientists think the oils work in a similar way within the human body. Used properly, they combat problems such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, headache, sexual dysfunction, obesity and even nicotine cravings.

Most of the Aromatherapy Essential Oil Therapy sessions are between 50 - 70 minutes.
