Welcome to the
latest edition of Aromatherapy News!
Our long time subscribers
will note that we have made some significant changes to the layout of
Aromatherapy News this edition. Our goal was to design a format that
would allow us to present our readers with more of the information they
want, in a format that is fully featured, and hopefully, visually appealing!
We have incorporated
all features from our previous editions, while adding a few new ones
that we sincerely hope you will find of value. Feel free to provide
us with any feedback you care to offer, via the 'contact the editors'
link at the bottom of this section. We continue to be focused on ensuring
your enjoyment of this publication, and are always open to suggestions.
One quick note
regarding the A World of Aromatherapy site - our recently introduced
'Aromatherapy Room' discussion board has been upgraded to ensure more
consistent accessibility. After receiving some notes of concern from
our visitors regarding the reliability of the previous service, we have
moved the discussion area to another provider, one with a history of
reliability in this area. As an added bonus, the 'Aromatherapy Room'
now features live chat, as well as standard bulletin board postings,
so please take a moment to visit, and share, via the link below!
Our featured article
this edition is offered in response to a large demand for information
on how Aromatherapy can be used to assist with all aspects of pregnancy,
and childbirth. The article, 'Aromatherapy and Child Bearing', by Marlene
Ericksen is an exceptional resource for any mother to be, and is included
below.
As always, we thank
both our long time, and new subscribers for joining us at Aromatherapy
News. We look forward to continuing to be your primary source for premium
quality, interesting aromatherapy news, and information.
Until next time,
