Sedona Pure Therapeutic Aromatherapy Massage

Therapeutic Aromatherapy Concepts

True Aromatherapy is an ancient form of plant medicine and natural healing. It has been discovered that Essential oils were used by the most ancient civilizations and is reputed to be at least 6000 years old. Translations of ancient manuscripts indicate that priests and physicians used essential oils for healing and rituals for thousands of years before the birth of Christ.

Here at Stillpoint we use only pure therapeutic grade essential oils. We both are certified aroma therapists and have been working with the essences for over 22 years.  Just recently, we have begun importing pure therapeutic essential oil directly from the farmers and distillers themselves worldwide.

 

We have access to over 100 single, medicinal grade essential oils which come from dedicated farmers all over the world. The essences are organic, wild harvested, wild-crafted, or cultivated without chemicals.  Many are bio-dynamically harvested in accordance with the natural rhythms of the Earth.. All of the essential oils are hand poured (not by machines) with love, one bottle at a time. They are genuine and authentic. It is our promise to you that they are 100 percent pure.

An essential oil is the pure, highly concentrated extract, of the plant, tree or flower. They are 100 times more powerful than dried herbs as it takes pounds and pounds of the particular tree bark, leaf, flower, root or rhizome to produce a small amount of essential oil.

Some Essential Oil History

All people and animals can benefit from Therapeutic Essential Oils.

Essential oils can be considered mankind’s first medicine and have been used worldwide for centuries. Essential oils along with other aromatics have been used in religious rituals, to treat various illnesses, and for other physical and spiritual needs.

Research dates the use of essential oils back to 4500 BC. Ancient Egyptians were the first to discover the potential of fragrance. In fact, three oils that are still commonly used today—cedarwood, myrrh, and frankincense—were used in the embalming process.

According to ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics and Chinese manuscripts, priests and physicians used oils thousand of years before the time of Christ. There are hundreds of references to oils in the Bible. Some precious oils like frankincense, myrrh, rosemary, cassia, and cinnamon were used for the anointing and healing of the sick.

The reintroduction of essential oils into modern times first began during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Essential oils have been used traditionally to kill harmful germs, as well as spiritually to balance mood, lift spirits, and dispel negative emotions.

 

About the Essential Oils We Import

The oils that we are presently importing to use in our practice are the purest and highest in vibration that we can find. The essential oils that we choose to use are certified organic or wild harvested, or (unsprayed) cultivated without chemicals. We have met such wonderful farmers and distillers during this process.

Many of the distillers we work with worldwide live in remote, rural communities and are not "certified organic" by any governmental body. However, they are still deeply dedicated to organic growing and grow all their plants without the use of any chemical pesticides. We refer to these essences as"unsprayed". The plants that are wild -harvested in the wild, and these are also not sprayed. We call this "wild crafted".

Organic certification has become very costly and some farmers simply can not afford to become certified. We have chosen to support all farmers and distillers that practice organic farming.

Working with these authentic International Distillers has given us a great appreciation and respect for the amount of work involved in getting each little bottle of essential oil to their customers. The farmers plant their fields with the aromatic crops, farm without the use of chemicals, harvest the plants, distill the oils, and finally make those oils available to the public. It is truly a labor of love.
