Intoduction to AromaTouch Technique

Whether you are a novice or expert in the uses and application of essential oil, doTERRA has introduced a technique that will magnify the benefits and experience of using CPTG essential oils.

The technique is simple to learn and doTERRA recommends using 8 CPTG essential oils to reduce and eliminate the impact of systemic constants on your overall health. Applying them with the AromaTouch Technique has been shown to help enhance systemic benefits and increase feelings of overall health and well-being.

Systemic Constants

Environmental factors have a negative impact on overall health and well-being, disturbing homeostasis - the balance our bodies need to function optimally. Such challenges, even when they do not immediately result in disease, cause our bodies to function below optimal levels. These include:


STRESS
Emotional distress, career choices, family discord, financial worries and the like elevate stress levels. Clinical studies have linked high stress and chronic stress to numerous negative health conditions.

TOXIC INSULT

Exposure to a wide array of toxic insults, including disease-causing pathogens, hormone and pesticide contaminated food products, and increasing levels of free-radicals from pollution, foods, and sunlight contribute to rises in the occurrence of varying illnesses.



INFLAMMATION
The increased consumption of food with pro-inflammatory components (foods high in polyunsaturated vegetable oils such as safflower, sunflower, corn and peanut oil) together with high carbohydrate, low protein diets contribute to increased inflammation in body systems. Stress, with its accompanying imbalance of cortisol, can also contribute to inflammation, as do various (and increasingly prevalent) immunological dysfunctions. Studies increasingly show links between fatal diseases and inflammation.

AUTONOMIC IMBALANCE

The opposite of homeostasis, an mbalance of the autonomic nervous system (aka: the ANS or visceral vervous system) can negatively impanct halth in a number of ways. Restoring the body's homeostasis can reduce the phsiological impact of stressors on the body.
