Practical Aromatherapy Course:

Using Essential Oils for Healing:

Medicinal herbalist, perfumer, and Wise Weeds Botanicals' proprietress Catherine Novak designed this course in response to numerous inquiries from individuals who wanted to learn more about the healing properties of essential oils and how to use them. The course material was developed over more than 10 years as a part of Catherine's own learning, teaching and writing experiences.

The Practical Aromatherapy Course enables students to gain both skill and knowledge about essential oils. The empowering coursework develops students' own appreciation for the healing qualities of essential oils, as well as educates them about appropriate resource materials and safety issues.

A basic test at the end of each lesson helps students review and reinforce the knowledge they have gained. Wise Weeds will issue a certificate of satisfactory completion of the course to students who complete each test satisfactorily, and who also complete and submit the final exam.

A book report and special research project are also required.

100 class hours credited for full completion of this course, including submission of lesson tests, final exam, copies of each sampling of essential oils, book report and research project.
