Aromatherapy Explained

These oils can be inhaled, applied to the skin, or used in a variety of different ways to promote relaxation, alleviate stress, boost mood, and support overall health.

Testimonials

Thank you so much for the great news! I'd say the self-paced learning materials were truly excellent. The content was comprehensive and easy to follow, covering all aspects of aromatherapy in great depth and detail. It was so well organized too. Also, the flashcards on Quizlet helped me memorize and recall key facts and terms. Overall, this has been such an informative course. Thank you for creating such high-quality resources that learners like myself could easily digest and retain. I feel prepared to apply it to my practice. Hope you're doing well and thanks again for everything!

I am very pleased with my choice of Joyessence for an aromatherapy school. My expectations for my education in aromatherapy/aroma massage were thoroughly exceeded. Julie made sure I had plenty of virtual one on one time to practice the massage techniques and sequences. She did an amazing job making sure I was comfortable with each technique and gave me ample time to clarify any questions I had. Since graduation, I have been working mobily under my business 'Balanced Strength and Wellness' currently based out of North Bay, Ontario and surrounding areas - Bringing Aroma Massages and custom therapeutic blends to the comfort of my clients' homes. Thanks again Joyessence and Julie! Facebook Page: facebook.com/balancedstrengthandwellness Instagram: @balancedstrengthwellness

I feel honoured to be a student at Joyessence!

The content of Clinical Aromatherapy Training Module 1 is rich and comprehensive, with many DIY formulas shared selflessly. The knowledge portion of Module 2 is professional, concise, and well-organized, covering the anatomy, physiology, and pathology that a clinical aromatherapist should possess. Before I knew it, I became a devoted fan of Joyessence!
