Essential Oil Obsession

Let’s start at the beginning. My career is in professional sports- the fast-paced world of sponsorship, where it is not unusual to spend 60-70 hours a week working. In the fall of 2016, I was diagnosed with shingles. I spent the first month in incredible pain, trying all the recommended meds, vitamins, and soaks with minimal relief, then I was introduced to essential oils. To my surprise, they were the most effective treatment for my constant pain and I was immediately fascinated. This led me to study aromatherapy at Stillpoint Studies in Sedona, Arizona.

Now I was hooked and finally starting to get better. I came home bought lots of oils and mixed blends for my family and friends. It took me almost 3 months to rid myself of the pain of shingles, aromatherapy has played a huge part in my journey. It also forced me to re-examine my life.  While I have worked in customer service my entire career through aromatherapy I have found a more meaningful way to help others. Not only are essential oils used for medicinal purposes, but I have found they have emotional and energetic benefits as well!
