Aromatherapy has seen a huge surge in popularity in the past decade, and has proven effective for a wide array of women's health problems. However, the number of women interested in introducing aromatherapy to their personal health care dwarfs the number of clinicians formally trained in it. As a result, large numbers of women self-treat with aromatherapy, which can increase risk factors particularly during pregnancy and lactation. Condensing thorough research into concise, easy-to-digest language, this scientific evidence-based guide enables women's healthcare professionals and aromatherapists to quickly determine the safest and most effective way to apply aromatherapy in any given situation.

The perfect bedside clinical guide for busy professionals, it covers 20 essential oils and their uses in women's health, from pregnancy to menopause. Readers will come away equipped with new tools to improve their patients' comfort and wellbeing, with the confidence of drawing from a reliable base of clinical evidence.

Introduction. 1. What is clinical aromatherapy? 2. Methods and Safety. Obstetrics: 3. Prenatal/Pregnancy. 4. Labor and Delivery/Intrapartum. 5. Postpartum. Gynecology: 6. Menstrual discomforts. 7. Premenstrual syndrome. 8. Menopause. Appendix. References

With the growing popularity of integrative medicine, essential oils have found their way back into health care. Historically anecdotal evidence or previous experience drove the choice of essential oils. However it is not enough for an oil just to smell good; healthcare professional must understand the oils reported benefits, potential risks, and contraindications as well as the current state of associated research. This book provides the evidence based foundation to practice evidence based aromatherapy for medical professionals.
