Aromatherapy an A-Z: The Most Comprehensive Guide to Aromatherapy Ever Published Reviews

Review by greenpapaya*: Aromatherapy an A-Z is a first class book. I have used it as a health encyclopedia (along with a wonderful herb book ~ The New Holistic Herbal by David Hoffmann) for the last 13 years and refer to it constantly. Almost (!) all the information you could ever need on all aspects of aromatherapy from treatment and prevention of specific illnesses, history of plant use & methods of oil extraction, to cosmetic use (including recipes for cosmetic products), all in an easy to use A-Z ‘dictionary’ format. Includes information on related practices such as Yoga and Reflexology etc Everyone interested in their own health should own a copy of this insightful and indispensable book. 

I have a comment however, about the latest edition of this book published by Vermilion.. Don’t buy this book! It is of VERY poor quality (the paper used for the pages of the book particularly). If you want to get hold of a copy (which I highly recommend!) ~ try to get hold of an older edition (the 2000 edition still has exactly the same content as this latest edition) you can still get this older edition from the Random House on-line bookshop (who have taken over CW Daniel ~ the original publishers’ books), and now also from Amazon.

Review by : This book is perfect for anybody with a good basic understanding of aromatherapy or for those who are studying the subject. It has so much information in it that if you were only to buy one aromatherapy book then you should consider this. I have added it to my collection and use it in conjunction with the Directory of Essential Oils. Anything that springs to mind about aromatherapy and it’s uses are in this book; from the oils themselves to the conditions that can be treated with them. From high blood pressure to chickenpox, from skincare to serious medical complaints, it’s all there in this book. Fantastic.

Aromatherapy- An A-Z

The most up to date encyclopedia of Aromatherapy available today, with over 400 entries covering more than 200 conditions from abscess to zona and 82 essential oils “The range and scope of practical information and guidance gathered within these 336 pages is absolutely staggering, and the affection and respect in which the A-Z is held by the practising aromatherapist is a thoroughly deserved accolade to this book that has been justly subtitled ”the aromatherapist”s bible”. – Aromatherapy Quarterly.

Complete Illustrated Guide – Aromatherapy: A practical approach to the use of essential oils for health and well-being Reviews

Review by M. Goodfellow: Anyone with an interest in Aromatherapy should buy this book. If you are interested in aromatherapy for personal and home use then this could be the only book you need.It contains a history of essential oils, methods of extraction, use of essential oils to assist various conditions, and a section at the back that acts as a reference to essential oils. The books is well laid out, very easy to read, and can be used as either a text book, or a book to read for pure enjoyment. If you are a professional therapist then you need to get this along with the Essential Oil Encyclopedia. 

Review by S. Adey: I bought this book a week ago and it’s hardly left my side since. I looked through so many Aromatherapy books in the shops, before I came across this one, that just had hundreds of pages of plain text with no illustrations or colour. That kind of book is fine if you’re an experienced Aromatherapist who just wants to quickly look something up for a patient etc. For home use I find that kind of book a little bit boring.
BUT…this book is just perfect. It’s got all the information you could possibly want for home use and it is beautifully illustrated with everything from pictures of the plants and oils to how to give yourself and others a massage. There are fascinating chapters on the history of Aromatherapy, home remedies, massage, the plants and oils, and loads more. The book covers 65 of the most popular and widely available oils. All nicely illustrated and described with added information such as safety data, aromatherapy use, extraction etc. I purchased this book along with it’s accompanying guide “The Illustrated Encyclopedia Of Essential Oils”, also by Julia Lawless, which is equally as good as this one. But, if you only wanted to buy one book for general home use then I recommend this one. You can’t go wrong with this book. It’s a great read and it’s very well laid out for quick reference use. Definitely a very valued addition to my book shelf.

Aromatherapy for Holistic Therapists Reviews

Review by L. Paxton: I’m currently studying aromatherapy and I’m finding this book really useful! It covers all the basic aspects you need to know including the history of essential oils, health and safety, business aspects as well as covering many essential oils and how to mix them for different ailments. 

The best thing about this book is the tasks. There are spaces for you to answer questions and fill in diagrams which I find helps learn things much quicker!

Must for aromatherapy students!

Review by Pro Beauty Education: Whilst teaching Level 3 VTCT Aromatherapy; this book was an essential reference guide; providing many opportunities for creating appealing and informative lessons. I recommended this book to my students; and many of them who purchased this book found it invaluable for their studies. It is a methodical and extensive book that covers all aspects of Aromatherapy theoretical knowledge; and the illustrations are exceptionally detailed and specific. I am a particular fan of providing students with mini tests at the end of their lessons. This helps consolidate learning and provides useful feedback to the teacher. This book helps both students and Lecturers tremendously in this respect.
