Aromatherapy is the art and science of using volatile plant oils for preventative care, healing, and relaxation.

It is becoming more acceptable today for the general populace to turn to aromatherapy for both healing and relaxation. We couldn't be more pleased. Additionally, current research continues to validate the efficacy of essential oils.

The aromatherapy programs at ACHS are available through distance education or on-campus instruction. While it is not required, we do encourage students to attend our Summer School in Syros, Greece for a truly unique and rewarding educational experience. Students are also encouraged to visit our Oregon campus for a more personal understanding of aromatherapy, our community wellness classes, and a tour of our botanical teaching garden.

The ACHS Department of Aromatherapy looks forward to hearing from you soon.
