Come and learn how to blend and apply essential oils for both pleasurable and therapeutic benefits.
The commercial surge of 'Aromatherapy' emerged notably in the new age era, notably post-1980, with a plethora of fragranced products leveraging aromatherapy claims. Despite being part of complementary medicine, safety aspects regarding essential oils often go unnoticed. This course focuses on educating participants about safe essential oil usage for improved lifestyle and wellness.
Participants learn proper oil 'sniffing' techniques, dosage determination for blends, and profiles of seven essential oils include Cedarwood, Palmarosa, Petitgrain and Neroli. They craft personalised blends for personal use, taking home their unique creation to continue their aromatic journey.

About your tutor, Rina
For over two decades, I've dedicated myself to Holistic Therapy. From 2002 to 2012, I managed clinics in Hong Kong and Jakarta, specialising in Holistic Aromatherapy & Massage Practice and Education. Since settling in New Zealand in 2013, my focus shifted to education. Until July 2023, I taught at Wellpark College and contributed to the Naturopathy Programme at the South Pacific College of Natural Medicine. My expertise revolves around guiding newcomers and mentoring professionals in aromatherapy and massage. Since 2014, I've operated a home clinic where I deliver comforting aromatherapy massages using premium essential oils sourced from New Zealand. My collection boasts 40 oils tailored for diverse therapies. Beyond just oils, my approach extends aromatherapy to harness scents for enhancing memory, managing emotions, and improving overall wellness. I incorporate these practices not only within classroom activities but also through nature-based exercises involving walks and inhalation of natural scents.
