Case Study: Essential Oil Remedy for Burns & Scarring

Through the power of essential oils

Our skin issues can be treated with remarkable efficacy. The savvy selection of carrier oil and healing essential oils is an excellent way to nourish and protect both physical tissues as well as emotional well-being.

Simone, a pastry chef looking for relief from pain and permanent scarring, found it with the natural healing effects of aromatherapy. This effective remedy brought soothing comfort to her delicate skin tissue while helping to protect against long-term damage.

This example is an excerpt from a case study that is part of the experience of our Aromahead Certification Program.

Student: Jacky
Client: Simone is a 50-year-old female who is a busy pastry chef. 
Health: Despite the high-pressure demands of her job, this professional has managed to stay balanced through breathing and meditation techniques. Unfortunately, she's had more than her fair share of minor burns due to occupational hazards.
Blend Intention: The goal is to offer a special combination of ingredients that can be utilized on minor burns, decreasing tissue damage and providing soothing relief.
Modality: A 5% dilution roll-on topical blend. The roll-on will provide a sanitary and effective way to apply.

5 drops Spike Lavender Oil (Lavandula latifolia)
5 drops Frankincense Oil (Boswellia carterii)

10 ml Tamanu Oil (Calophyllum inophyllum)
