ABOUT THE BOOK
This is the most detailed and research-based book available on aromatherapy aimed specifically at those caring for pregnant and childbearing women, especially midwives and aromatherapists. Building on the success of the last edition, this book contains new and expanded information on physiology related to obstetrics, the principles of safe use of essential oils for pregnant and childbearing women, and infant massage. Thoroughly revised and updated to include the latest information on aromatherapy, essential oils, and massage for pregnancy, childbirth, and the post-natal period.
"This is definately a book for midwives or aromatherapists taking an active part in a clients pregnancy and labour. Denise is exceptional in her field and is certainly making a effort to bring down the boundries, incorporating aromatherapy into a field that is dominated by the current medical field. I certainly found this book informative, if some what heavy duty reading with all the clinical back up, but understand the necessity thereof. The only reason why I gave four instead of five stars to this book was that I had really hoped that there would have been more illustrations and techniques on the massage aspect of aromatherapy during pregnancy."
