Smell Your Way To Wellness
Fon Du Lac Reporter was on hand for aromatherapy first aid class.
Vores is a massage therapist in Grafton. He is certified by the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork.
Aromatherapy is the use of extracted plant essential oils derived from the flowers, leaves, roots, resins or bark for psychological and physical well-being.
Some essential oils can be applied to the skin, usually in diluted strengths, to affect some healing or pain relief.
Some oils burn or discolor the skin or make the skin sensitive to sunlight. Oils should not be applied full-strength unless one knows they are safe, Vores said.
