ROOTS OF WELLNESS

The Roots of the ATT

​

Dr. Hill knows that a truly powerful essential oil experience—one that fosters connection—comes from a place of service so he went on to develop the Aroma Touch Technique, basing it on one simple idea: “What if there was a way that we could use essential oils efficiently, safely, and effectively in every circumstance?” 

 

Dr. Hill spent months perfecting the AromaTouch Technique, calling on his expertise in essential oils, anatomy, and professional experience. The technique needed to be simple enough that anyone could do it, while still providing powerful benefits.

 

Since dōTERRA introduced the technique in 2009, over a quarter-million people have learned how to perform it and shared the experience with those they care about. You can read the study published in the Journal of Integrative Medicine and Therapy by visiting our blog. 

Why do we at Roots believe its a benefit for families to learn this touch technique ?

Here at Roots of Wellness we want to give people access to the tools that enable them to be self reliant and independent  in their ability to take care of their families wellbeing. So like Dr Hill we teach that there is a way to learn about the powerful essential oils and the uses of them within the home and the workplace. You don't need to be an aromatherapist or a trained massage consultant to learn and practice this technique.

 

After the training everyone receives  a certificate of attendance. If you wish to integrate the  aroma touch technique into your practice or become a consultant the insurance is available once you have completed the aroma touch case studies  on a minimum of ten people, adults or children. 

​

What are the Aroma Touch benefits ?

​

dōTERRA's AromaTouch Technique is a clinical approach to applying essential oils along energy meridians and visceral contact points of the back and feet to help balance sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems of the body.
