Medical Aromatherapy by Kurt Schnaubelt
Dr. Schnaubelt traces aromatherapy's French origins paralleling the de velopment of pharmacology. Grounding his inquiry in the chemistry of b ody odor and natural human aromas, he explores the molecular make-up o f the major essential oils: their composition, biosynthesis, and effec ts in healing--including their action as anti-inflammatory, antihistam inic, anti-bacterial, and anti-viral agents. Understanding the chemist ry of the essential oils allows one to appreciate their effects and ap plicability.Kurt Schnaubelt is a Ph.D. holder. He holds a bachelor's degree in chemistry and is the founder and scientific director of San Francisco's Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy. He lives in San Rafael, California, and is the author of Advanced Aromatherapy and Medical Aromatherapy.
