CLASSROOM COURSE Aromatherapy plants: the smell of good health
Sat 23 April 2022
Botanic Garden
Essential oils extracted from plants are a rich source of medicinal compounds that are harnessed in aromatherapy. This course will introduce aromatherapy and essential oils, look at some of the commonly used oils and explore the plants they come from. We will see how these oils are obtained and used and how you can be sure that you’re getting the oil you expect. Weather permitting, we’ll also visit some of the essential-oil providing plants which grow in the Garden.
Cost: £35
