This small guide of 60 pages obviously cannot be considered as "The Bible" of essential oils. But it will allow you to quickly find the main properties and indications of each.

"People who already have a strong sensitivity for natural health solutions, as well as people who realize that a holistic view of health disorders is more effective than a purely symptomatic or chemical approach, will naturally orient themselves, sooner or later, towards essential oils from medicinal plants, used in aromatherapy.

Essential oils are among the most powerful substances that nature provides. They are unique synergies of plant compounds that determine the essence or soul of a plant and exhibit characteristics not found in chemical drugs. Essential oils can not only relieve physical discomfort, but also favorably influence our spiritual attitude and emotional state of mind. Add to this the fact that essential oils can awaken our senses with their aromatic fragrances and that they are ideal for body care and well-being, you will admit that they offer us vast fields of possible uses."
