patients can look their best naturally while earning CEUS in Hawaii and
increase your practice! The use of essential oils and
herbal waters for preserving skin is not a new phenomena. Using oils for cosmetic purposes is believed
to have originated with the ancient Egyptians. While originally using herball
oils in the process of embalming, they learned of their immense value in
preserving the flesh as we can attribute to in present times. This unique course will train
practitioners to customize an aromatherapy facial rejuvenation treatment by
utilizing an Oriental Medical approach.
With her twenty-five years of clinical experience using essential oils
and knowledge of Oriental Medicine, Ms. Doran has created a highly effective
and innovative approach for working with aromatherapy. She will teach the cosmetic uses of
individual essential oils, carrier oils and hydrosols, an exciting new branch
of aromatherapy that is extraordinarily useful in treating and caring for the
skin. Highly effective
formulas will also be revealed for specific conditions such as dry skin,
combination skin, oily skin, acneic skin, sensitive skin, puffiness, sagging
skin, age spots, scars and wrinkles. Additionally, protocols using essential
oils on distal acupuncture points as a root treatment will also be taught for
these conditions. This root and branch style of
aromatherapeutic treatment provides a more dramatic and lasting effect than
either approach used separately.
With this highly effective approach to Facial Rejuvenation, one can
simultaneously benefit a person's appearance and overall health. With extensive handouts, the
course begins with general information on the subject that anyone practicing
aromatherapy should know. This includes: the history of aromatherapy, how it works
scientifically on the body and the psyche, the importance of natural versus
synthetic products, how to identify and locate high quality products, ways to
use them, proper methods of handling and storage, ethical issues, cautions
and contraindications, guidelines for making aromatherapy blends, and
recommended books and sources for top quality oils, hydrosols, and ready-made
aromatherapy products for skin care. Then the Chinese medical energetics
and esthetique uses will be given for over sixty essential oils. Thirty carrier oils,
and forty hydrosols will be discussed followed by formulas for local (branch)
treatment and distal root treatment protocols for the underlying causes of
these signs of aging and dysfunction.
Finally, through a hands-on experience, participants will create
both a custom essential oil and hydrosol blend for their own use and learn
how to apply essential oils to acupuncture points. ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR: Virginia Doran has over
twenty-five years of clinical professional experience in the Healing Arts.
She graduated from the Swedish Institute of Massage and Allied Health
Sciences in 1978 where she has since taught postgraduate courses. Ms. Doran
is an NCCAOM Diplomate in Acupuncture and Chinese Herbology having received
her Masters of Science in Acupuncture from the Tri-State College of
Traditional Chinese Acupuncture and also completed their postgraduate course
in Chinese Herbal Pharmacology. Virginia is frequently asked to teach
practitioners her methods of facial rejuvenation and is sought out by
television networks and various publications as an expert on Facial
Rejuvenation. To share with others the benefits of the publicity, Virginia
created a referral service on her web-site for her students. She is currently
writing two books on facial rejuvenation, one on acupuncture and Chinese
herbs for facial rejuvenation for practitioners of Oriental medicine. The
other book for the public is about her entire facial rejuvenation program,
which includes acupuncture, acupressure and facial massage, and aromatherapy
among other things. Ms. Doran is also being included in an upcoming book on
experts in aromatherapy. Further details and contact
