Prepare for a paradigm shift in the world of essential oil therapy. In Aromatica Volume 2, the dichotomy between the vitalistic and scientific/analytic philosophies which has overshadowed clinical practice for many years is finally resolved. A new way of approaching clinical practice is presented - one which integrates the diagnostic principles of traditional Chinese, Greek, Japanese Kampo and Ayurvedic medicine with empirical and scientific evidence which informs the clinical use of essential oils. This is a masterpiece, and highly recommended for all serious practitioners of essential oil therapy.
