Aromatherapy is the science of combining essential oils to stimulate and enhance the body's own self-healing abilities.
This is the process we use at Beyond the Sea.

Most Commercial body products include chemically produced fragrance. This is not Aromatherapy. While chemically-produced fragrances may smell good, they have no benefit for the body or spirit. Some even harmful. While some natural body products use essential oils, they are not genuine enough to be healing. These oils are usually industrial grade, which means that they are over-processed or adulterated and, as such, have very minimal properties. Beyond the Sea products are of the quality to be beneficial for the conditions they are designed to treat.
