How To Choose An Aromatherapist

As more people become aware of Aromatherapy the question of how to choose an Aromatherapist arises.

Unfortunately, there are many people out there flinging essential oils out willy-nilly with no training or thought. As a trained professional, its a little scary!

So, first and foremost, an Aromatherapist should be educated in the field of Aromatherapy. I received my Aromatherapy education and training from Mount Royal College in Calgary, Alberta under the tutelage of Professional Aromatherapist and Registered Massage Therapist, Jean Channon-Simpson. An Aromatherapist educated in the field of Aromatherapy will make all the difference in your treatment and how you feel afterwards.

Secondly, you should feel absolutely comfortable with this person; this may take some investigation, but it is absolutely important that you feel at ease discussing problems and concerns with the person you choose to be your Aromatherapist. You are the client and customer, it is your money being spent and you deserve to know a few things about the Aromatherapist you choose. Call and discuss aspects that are important to you.

The Aromatherapist should be courteous and caring, in person and on the phone. A treatment should start with a short intake form and interview where you will be asked about your health, physically and mentally, as well as what your goal is for that particular session.

After choosing your Aromatherapist, all there is left for you to do is to enjoy your treatment!
