You will learn the basic science behind essential oils and the differences between the human response to oils and the animal’s response. We will discuss how scents are already inundating the products you use, the difference between good scents and bad scents. We will discuss how to add essential oils to improve your product line and service menu. You will learn two techniques for helping to select the proper oils for an animal; through applied kinesiology and through self-selection.
