Review Quotes
"The bulk of the book is devoted to how to use essential oils for healing and wellness. There are specific recipes and instructions for everything from work stress to head lice to spa treatments to applications for pets. It's a perfect addition to every home library."
-- Anna Jedrziewski, Retailing Insight
"Impressively thorough, well organized, and with a clear table of contents, Worwood's book is easily navigable to find information symptom by symptom, oil by oil, or topic by topic (such as workplace or travel). . . . Worwood's tone is positive and pragmatic. With benefits for whole-body health, home, and beauty, the promise of essential oils seems too good to be true, but Worwood's research, experience, and diligent instruction, along with her calm voice, prove the might of natural oils."

So the book has a ton of usefull information the organization of that information well its all over the place. Instead of starting with the oils and an overview its more like an apendix at the end of the book. There are tons of recipes but while they list all the oils effective against the particular affliction they dont list alternates to the recipes. So you will have 25 oils that are antifungal for skin but one recipe with 3 or 4 oils . Finally the index seems al over the place , simple items like folliculitis aren't listed. There a method of use chart in the beginning of the book which translates to basic recipes but it doesn't cover salves standard or drawing... The provided information on how to choose oils how they are extracted and therapeutic properties plus precautions are very thorough. And overall the book is a resource that i am glad i purchased, but it requires alot of time to go through.
