Clinical East/West Aromatherapy Part 1 Course Description:

Taught by David Sol

6 CE hours, $150

This course is an introduction to the professional practice of Aromatherapy combining both Eastern and Western concepts of essential oil use. Students will be introduced to identifying the needs of the client’s body, mind, and spirit and customize an essential oil blend for them.

Students will learn to conduct a thorough clinical assessment and the safe use of 30+ essential oils and their varied applications. With these oils, a practitioner can create a targeted blend appropriate to the constitution and clinical needs of an individual.

This class is taught via Zoom.

This class does not have a current schedule.  An excellent alternative is our Aromatherapy On Point series, and our Aromatherapy for Massage Therapists series, both taught by Zoom.

As an introduction, you can also take our online self-study module: Aromatherapy On Point Intro
