Healing Wounds and Scars, Emotionally and Physically, with Essential Oil Energetics Healing Wounds and Scars, Emotionally and Physically, with Essential Oil Energetics BY KELLY HOLLAND AZZARO, RA, CCAP, CBFP, LMT COPYRIGHT: ASHI AROMATICS, INC. Energetics of a Scar •What comes to mind for you when you glance upon a scar on your body or notice one on a stranger or your animal friend? •Do you automatically think of just the physical appearance of a scar, or does the scar flood your mind with memories of trauma associated with it? •Do you feel a sense of connectedness to the wound or scar? If so, this presentation will share that, for some individuals (including our animal friends), scars may also manifest blockages (emotional and physical); and how the energetics of essential oils and botanical bases can be beneficial in the healing process. COPYRIGHT: ASHI AROMATICS, INC. Scars-emotional and physical. The word ‘scar’ may resonate differently depending on the individual. Below are a few descriptions defining the word scar from online dictionary sources [1]. Physical Scar: “A mark left on the skin or within body tissue where a wound, burn, or sore has not healed completely, and fibrous connective tissue has developed." •Associated words: blemish, discoloration, disfigurement, pockmark, lesion, and birthmark. Emotional Scar: “A lasting effect of grief, fear, or other emotion left on a person's character by a traumatic experience.” “Deep psychological scars." •Associated words: damage, injury, trauma. Definition of a Plant’s Scar: “A mark left at the point of separation of a leaf, frond, or other part from a plant.” "A former attachment." •Associated words: damage, impact, injury, trauma. COPYRIGHT: ASHI AROMATICS, INC. Meridian Energetics In TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) theory, the body contains individual meridian channel pathways that are connected to individual organ systems by way of energy (Qi). Each channel has specific acupuncture points associated to the energetics of these organ systems. When the body experiences an injury or trauma (emotionally or physically), it also impacts one or more meridian channels. This may come in the form of a physical scar from a surgical procedure to remove an organ such as the appendix, or it may manifest when an individual experiences emotional trauma. With the application of acupuncture and acupressure to specific body points (above and below the physical scar region), or to points applicable for emotional trauma, this type of treatment, aids in both the physical and emotional healing of the scar and/or trauma. Meridians exist in all beings-human and animal. COPYRIGHT: ASHI AROMATICS, INC. Blocked or Concentrated Energy Some individuals may become hypersensitive to touch near the surgical or trauma body areas. I can speak from experience in regards to an emergency appendectomy surgery (removal of the appendix), and how, to this day, almost ten years afterwards, I am still a bit hypersensitive and guarded to touch near my right flank and hip crest region, even though the incision scar mark lies more to the right inner side of my lower abdomen. Acupuncture, aromatherapy and energy therapies have helped me immensely in letting go of the hypersensitive tension that builds in that area from time to time. I also incorporate the use of massage cupping, which helps to decrease adhesions, crepitus and softens older keloid type scar tissue. Hypersensitive to touch: pain, inflammation, itching, muscle quivering, trembling, sensitive to temperature changes, guarded/armoring, tightness, tension, jumpiness, ticklish, fidgety, irritated, impatient, etc. COPYRIGHT: ASHI AROMATICS, INC. Essential Oil Energetics Methods of Application: Essential oils and aromatherapy blends can be easily incorporated for: Topical application: to specific acupuncture points and meridian pathways. Energetic: mist sprays may also be used to mist over the body’s energetic centers (chakras) to bring balance and harmony. Cleanse the environment, improve Feng shui energy flow (“is a Chinese philosophical system of harmonizing everyone with the surrounding environment.”-Wikipedia) Inhalation (direct or personal inhaler): anxiety, anger, grief, stress, trauma, nightmares, recurring memories/thoughts associated with the scar/injury/trauma.

  • Carrier Oils in Dermatology
    Archives of Dermatological Research (2019) 311:653–672 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00403-019-01951-8 REVIEW Carrier oils in dermatology Ané Orchard1 · Sandy F. van Vuuren1 Received: 26 March 2019 / Revised: 24 June 2019 / Accepted: 4 July 2019 / Published online: 18 July 2019 © Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Wounds are a common medical infiction. With the increase in microbial resistance and a shift of interest towards comple- mentary medicines, essential oils have been shown to be benefcial in suppressing microbial growth. However, in practice, essential oils are more often diluted into a base due to the risk of topical adverse efects, such as dermatitis. There is a lack of collated evidence-based information on toxicity and efcacy of carrier oils. The current information on the subject matter is restricted to generic, aroma-therapeutic books and pamphlets, based on anecdotal evidence rather than an experimental approach. Therefore, this review aimed at identifying the recommended carrier oils used in dermatology and thereafter col- lating the scientifc evidence to support the use of carrier oils together with essential oils recommended for dermatological use. Aloe vera gel had multiple studies demonstrating the ability to enhance wound healing; however, several other carrier oils have been largely neglected. It was observed that the extracts for certain plant species had been used to justify the use of the carrier oils of the same plant species. This is an inaccurate cross assumption due to the diference in chemical composi- tion and biological activities. Lastly, despite these carrier oils being recommended as a base for essential oils, very little data was found on the interactive profle of the carrier oil with the essential oil.

Payal N. Bhautik1 , Assistant Profesor Department of Chemical Engineering, Shram Sadhanda Bombay Trust’s College of Engineering and Technology, Bambhori, Jalgaon-425001 Abstract: Tamarind is one of the best vegetable products which are largely used by the domestic people as well as in the hotel industries, dhabas and restaurants for the food preparation as sour taste. After extraction of pulps from tamarind there is bye product of tamarind seed. Tamarind seed is largely used for the manufacturing of low cost tamarind seed flour. There is abundant amount of tamarind available in India, but there are very rare uses of tamarind as basic industrial raw material. Manufacturing of tamarind seed oil will be commercial exploitation of tamarind seed. It has very good scope in India as well as it can be exported for the pharmaceutical base products too. 7-10% oil is available in the tamarind seed. After the extraction of tamarind oil de-oiled cake is remains which are used in medicine and also used for the production of biodegradable plastic by extraction of starch. It can be extracted by using hexane, ether, toluene dichloromethane as solvent for extraction of tamarind seed oil. There is about 30% vegetable oil storage in our country which meat up by importing of vegetable oil. There is good market potentiality of the tamarind seed oil.

  • Aromatherapy
    Aromatherapy Module 2 Methods of Extraction Manual compiled by Dr Gaynor du Perez METHODS OF EXTRACTION Copyright © 2016 All Rights Reserved No part of this book may be reproduced or distributed in any form or by any means without the written permission of the author. Essential oils are derived from the flowers (e.g. chamomile), leaves (e.g. tea-tree), seeds (e.g. black pepper), fruit rind (e.g. lemon), heartwood (e.g. sandalwood), bark/sap/resin (e.g. frankincense) and rhizomes/roots (e.g. ginger) of aromatic plants. The word “oil” is misleading, as essential oils are not oily, but are volatile essences which, if exposed to air, will evaporate quickly. Unfortunately, extracting essential oils is not an easy process . Invariably the method of extraction either affects the chemical make-up of the oil, adds other components or both. The overriding objective is to cause the least amount of aggression and interference, resulting in oils as close as possible to their natural composition. Historically, distillation was the only method that produced what was termed essential oil. However, whilst it does facilitate the collection of the favourable tiny, volatile, aromatic molecules from the plant, distillation is far from perfect. The aggressive use of heat alters the chemical composition of the oil and some oil is lost through evaporation. Some methods of extraction produce aromatic substances which, although highly perfumed and possessing some therapeutic properties, are not actually classified as essential oils. This does tend to get a little confusing, particularly as many refer to all aromatic products as essential oils.

Palm oil has been an important ingredient in the diet of many Nigerians.It is estimated that for every Nigerian household of five, about two liters of palm oil are consumed weekly for cooking. Despite the high consumption of the product by average Nigerians, existing technology of processing the product locally are associated with problems such as; unhygienic production processes, high rate of human energy consumption, time-consuming and drudgery etc., thus this research work. The vertical digester machine designed consists of a cylindrical vessel (drum) that is fitted to a central rotating shaft carrying a number of beater arms, feed hopper which serves as the intake chute for the parboiled palm fruit, digester barrel, bearings, main shaft, beater arms, discharge end, electric motor, frame, etc. It works on the rotary impact principle. The digester barrel carries the hopper and the shaft assembly which lies in the central position of the barrel.
