 Edgar Cayce's Massage, Hydrotherapy, and Healing Oils
ASIN: 0917483340
Customer's Rating: 2
Summary: Edgar Cayce's Massage Hydrotherapy and Healing Oils
Comments: Drawing from the information given through Edgar Cayce, America's most famous psychic, the material presented is helpful in that it provides a background to the methods which Cayce's guides, or as some think, his Higher Self, extracted from the Akashic records. The material covers the uses of oils, with notations for tracing the information back to the source readings.
While the illustrations are of use, it is important to understand a key Cayce concept, that of - the coordination of the nervous systems... This may not be as clearly stated as it might, but it remains as of underlying importance as to what the readings had to offer.
Throughout the Cayce material, over 9,000 of the 14,000 readings were on health issues alone, the coordination of the nervous systems was critical to the progress towards healthful conditions. Additionally, the use of the various formulated oils in combination with the massage techniques especially focusing upon the spinal areas, brings great relief for a large number of conditions.
I gave this a two star because its scope is limited. Limited in that there is so much more that could have been related from the readings to make it a more valuable piece of work. Its downfall is in that it relates the material garnered from the relationship between the authors and the doctor mentioned - Reilly, rather than with Edgar Cayce. And that it has not been updated with a fresh eye to editing for the antiquated speech patterns from the earlier part of the last century.
So, the efforts to extract from the readings - in computer technology terms - a bit of reverse engineering, did not go sufficiently deep.
However, I can still recommend the text for its illustrations and oil formulations.

 Medical Aromatherapy: Healing with Essential Oils
ASIN: 1883319692
Customer's Rating: 2
Summary: Medical Aromatherapy: Healing with Essential Oils
Comments: This book, while loaded with plenty of technical info, LACKS plain, straightforward healing.
A FEW HOURS searching ON-LINE WILL GET YOU THE SAME MEDICAL INFO, WITHOUT WEEDING THRU HUNDREDS OF PAGES OF SCIENTIFIC JARGIN!
Also purchased the oils they are connected with - my experience was the WORST! My adult business experience spans decades and i can say i will never do business with them EVER. They charge the most of any company for oil - there goes the theory "you get what you pay for".

 Aromatherapy for Healing the Spirit: Restoring Emotional and Mental Balance with Essential Oils
ASIN: 0892818875
Customer's Rating: 5
Summary: inpirational
Comments: I first read this book when it was recommended to me by a Massage Intructor,in Australia, who was an inspiration in herself. It is simple and informative , while insightfull, for both the beginner in Aromatherapy as well as the practitioner. I would recommend it to anyone who is open to wholistic healing, and to those who just aren't sure. Great to have in the house as a reference.
Mojay has simply explained the links between healing the spirit and the body using aromatherapy.

 The Art of Aromatherapy: The Healing and Beautifying Properties of the Essential Oils of Flowers and Herbs
ASIN: 0892810017
Customer's Rating: 2
Summary: Too difficult to research
Comments: This book may contain great information, but unless you're committed to sitting down and reading it cover to cover, this won't be your most helpful resource. This book has no index in the back, so if you want to look up a specific topic, you've only got chapter and section headings, and then you have to scan through pages and pages to find what you're looking for. I've got 4 aromatherapy books, and I barely ever crack this one open because it's too much work to find what I'm looking for. There are much better books out there!

 Aromatherapy Anointing Oils: Spiritual Blessings, Ceremonies, and Affirmations
ASIN: 1583940456
Customer's Rating: 5
Summary: Aromatherapy Annointing Oils: Spiritual Blessings...
Comments: I first learned of Joni's insightful work in her book "Aromatherapy and Subtle Energy Techniques" and was eager to read her newest work. As a certified massage therapist I think her books are a wonderful tool for bodyworkers. Her writing eleminates the fluff and cuts to the core of what will help us grow as healers. Her connection to the divine within is evident from the very first page. I highly recommend this book to all bodyworkers as well as the layperson who is looking to enrich their spiritual practices. Joni's books should be required reading at all massage therapy schools!

 The Healing Aromatherapy Bath: Therapeutic Treatments Using Meditation, Visualization and Essential Oils
ASIN: 1580171974
Customer's Rating: 5
Summary: informative, helpful and very insightful
Comments: This book has shown me how I can derive the maximum benefit from aromatherapy baths by utilizing multiple diciplines such as meditation, and visualization in conjunction with the bath. I have also learned to demystify the effects of essential oils from the easy to understand explanations of these oils by Ms. Lazzara. She writes in a manner that makes it easy for the lay person to understand and therefore incorporate the multi-discipline approach in the aromatherapy bath. I have clearly derived better results from aromtherapy baths since I began following the suggestions that Ms. Lazzara has provided in her book. Thank you Margo.
