Embraced by alternative medicine for over 6,000 years, aromatherapy utilizes essential plant oils, known for their healing properties both physically and emotionally, to treat the body and improve overall health.

The organic essential oils we use at Gauthier Health Care are made from concentrated extracts taken from roots, seeds, leaves, or plant blossoms. Each contains its own variety of active ingredients.

While some essential oils are used to promote physical healing -- for example, to treat fungal infections or areas of swelling, others are used to improve an emotional experience -- they may enhance relaxation or improve mood.

Aromatherapy treatments at Gauthier Health Care make use of essential plant oils to stimulate your olfactory senses. Aromatherapy is used to treat headaches, digestive issues, mood disorders and for stress relief.

The treatment is most often used in conjunction with other services (such as massage, facials or chiropractic care).
