Hydrolats are one of aromatherapy’s most versatile yet often underused therapeutic tools. Produced by the steam distillation of botanical material, usually during the production of essential oils. Hydrolats are gentle and effective. They contain only the most water-soluble chemicals from the plant material plus microscopic drops of the essential oils making them suitable for a wide range of applications when stronger treatments may not be well tolerated.

This specialist CPD course explores the production, properties and therapeutic applications of hydrolats, helping therapists gain confidence in using them for skin care, digestive health, respiratory support, emotional wellbeing, baby care and everyday wellness. You will discover how hydrolats can complement aromatherapy treatments whilst offering a gentle and effective option for sensitive clients.
