Peppermint

"Peppermint essential oil is present in two of the essential oil blends used in the AromaTouch Technique, so many may wonder why I chose to include the single essential oil at the end of the technique. The answer is simple. While Peppermint works within a blend to support the purpose of that blend, on its own Peppermint is highly invigorating and helps re-energize. After such a soothing and relaxing experience, it’s important to include components that help awaken the senses without interfering with the process and I feel that Peppermint, when layered with Wild Orange, really accomplishes that." - Dr. Hill
