Product Description

Review

."..packed with practical advice and guidance for nurses undertaking aromatherapy. I believe it may also benefit other health care professionals forming the 'caring team'. Is exceptionally well referenced - a must I believe for the nurse aromatherapist."--Journal of Child Health Care

Product Description

Aromatherapy is a growing form of complementary therapy in the UK and USA, and is rapidly being employed by nurses and other health care professionals in hospital, hospice and community settings. Written by a nurse for nurses, this text highlights how clinical aromatherapy could enhance nursing care and the role of a nurse. Buckle explores applications in 11 departments including immunology, paediatrics and endocrinology. She discusses the implications of essential oils becoming prescribed items, and covers pharmacokinetics and the use of essential oils with orthodox medications. She also explains the difference between different types of aromatherapy and shows how this complementary therapy could become part of a nursing diagnosis or be seen to be part of nursing theory. There is an in-depth section covering infection, pain, inflammation, nausea and insomnia.

5.0 out of 5 stars The aromatherapy "Bible" for health care professionals., 3 Jun 1999

By Lori Mitchell, RN (jdm@digisys.net) - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Clinical Aromatherapy in Nursing (Paperback)

Rather than being just another aromatherapy cookbook, Clinical Aromatherapy in Nursing is a comprehensive guide on the use of this complementary modality in the clinical arena. It provides a strong clinical focus from the nursing perspective, including the incorporation of Aromatherapy into the Nursing Diagnosis and Care Plan as well as regulations and health and safety policies.

The author presents a refreshing and very compassionate approach to nursing care, one that I feel could fundamentally change the paradigm of the way we deliver care to our patients. For nurses who are experiencing care-giver burnout, this book is an inspiration to what our profession is really about.

While this book will not qualify a nurse to practice clinical aromatherapy without formal training, it will be an instrumental framework for incorporating this modality into the nursing model.

Having completed Janes 5 module training program after reading this book, I can highly recommend both the book and the course to all health care professionals.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST for MASSAGE THERAPISTS as well !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, 20 Feb 1999

By C Petsy, LMT (CPetsy@aol.com) - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Clinical Aromatherapy in Nursing (Paperback)

As a Licensed Massage Therapist working primarily with people in pain, I HIGHLY recommend this book. Jane has done a beautiful job explaining the therapeutic potential of Aromatherapy dealing with problems such as pain, inflammation, stress management (and much, much more) on the physical as well as emotional level, all of which we encounter in our daily practice. This book is an excellent reference for Massage Therapists who want to use Aromatherapy as a complement to their practice. Don't be without it!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for nurses working with aromatherapy in any setting, 6 Nov 1998

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Clinical Aromatherapy in Nursing (Paperback)

This book covers aspects of aromatherapy of interest to the scientific minded, the nursing professional as well as anyone wanting to get a broader view of how to apply this complimantary healing art to their lives. The author has provided well documented information about the use of essential oils in nursing and also brings up many issues which surround compliemntary therapies in the traditional healing professions. This book is a great resource, covering information from the scientific make up of the oils to the practical situations in which they can be used in nursing practice. Highly recommended.
