CPD – 6 points (IFPA) / 5 points (FHT)

This course fully explores the use of essential oils and aromatherapy techniques with pregnant women.

This course fully explores the use of essential oils and aromatherapy techniques with pregnant women. Safety issues are clearly explained along with methods of use. Aromatherapists need to work safely and yet still be effective.  To this end, we must ensure that we are confident in the use of essential oils in any situation including pregnancy.  If we study chemistry and we look at each individual client and their own idiosyncrasies, contra-indications and physical and mental conditions thoroughly then we can be more confident in practice.

This course seeks to inspire confidence and renewed ability for clients who have specialised needs – in this case, during pregnancy.  Our first concern must be to ascertain the oils that are beneficial and the oils that are not beneficial for a pregnant client.
