dōTERRA’s AromaTouch® Technique is a clinical approach to applying essential oils along energy meridians and visceral contact points of the back, feet and hands to help balance the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems of the body. Developed by Dr. David Hill, a leading expert in integrative medicine and therapeutic applications of essential oils, the AromaTouch® Technique improves well being by reducing physical and emotional stressors and by supporting healthy autonomic function. The technique is simple and intuitive and uses dōTERRA’s CPTG Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade™ essential oils for an unparalleled grounding experience for recipients.

The special combination of high quality therapeutic grade doTERRA essential oils, used with the AromaTouch® massage therapy technique contributes to a relaxed yet focused mind and body. It also brings an energetic, healthful vitality to the muscles and organ systems. The doTERRA AromaTouch® massage is a specialty massage with all the right ingredients and can be done as a stand alone focused session or added to any of our other massage sessions.

The AromaTouch® Technique uses specific guidelines and instructions for both dosage and application which make it a safe and effective way to receive the full benefits of essential oils. It is also very gentle and can be adapted to accommodate young or sensitive skin so that anyone can benefit without the worry of overwhelming the body.

The essential oils used in the AromaTouch® Technique are selected for their individual and combined powerful aromatic properties. This technique includes four primary steps designed to minimize systemic stressors to autonomic balance. Each step includes the application of two essential oils or essential oil blends specifically formulated to support healthy emotional and physiological functions for wellbeing.
