Essential Oils as a Complimentary Treatment for Wounds and Discomfort Caused by Serious Illness
A 3 Hour Workshop by John Kerr on the Gold Coast
Recently, David and I attended the Annual International Aromatherapy & Aromatic Medicine Association Conference in Sydney. During the conference we were having a discussion with the founder of Springfield’s Aromatherapy, John Kerr, about the clinical trials he conducted at the Westmead Hospital in Sydney. These trials were very interesting and involved the use of Essential Oils to treat wounds and discomfort caused by serious illness.
As this is a 3 hour intensive workshop, John has asked that the numbers be limited to 30 people so that he can have quality time to answer questions and give those in attendance the desired attention required for this interesting topic.

Is your digestive system not feeling quite right?
Do you only pay attention to your digestive system when there is a problem? Maybe after you have eaten a large meal and feel bloated? Or perhaps you pay attention to your digestive system only when you have had changes in bowel movements, like diarrhoea or constipation? If this is the case, some digestive support in the form of a probiotic could be useful! Probiotics are “good bacteria” that help keep your digestive system in good condition. Digestive problems are often a sign that the bacteria in your digestive system are out of balance, and since your digestive system is the centre of health, it is extremely important that you keep it healthy!
Did you know?
Did you know that you have over 400 species of good bacteria inside your digestive system and they weigh up to 3kg? In fact, you have more bacteria living inside you than you have cells in your entire body! There are approximately 100 trillion bacteria in your digestive system, the vast majority of which live in your bowel. The balance of all these bacteria is essential for your health and wellbeing.
Good bacteria can protect you!
Your digestive system is in constant contact with the outside environment through the food that you eat. In your lifetime, you will eat approximately 22 tonnes of food. This food and the fluids you consume could be carrying potential pathogens that could make you sick. Good bacteria can protect you from getting sick from these potential pathogens.
Balance is essential for health…
It is essential for health and wellbeing that the bacteria, or flora, in your digestive system is kept in a healthy balance. An imbalance of flora within the digestive system can lead to many common symptoms including:
• Poor digestive function
• Diarrhoea
• Constipation
• Irritable bowel syndrome
• Bloating
• An increase in allergies and eczema
• Chronic disease
How do good bacteria keep you healthy?
Good bacteria aid in:
• Breaking down food and producing nutrients.
• Absorption of nutrients.
• Maintaining the motility of the digestive tract,
ensuring good bowel motions.
• Inhibiting the growth of bad bacteria.
• Maintaining a healthy immune system.
Not all probiotics are created equal…
As you can see, maintaining good bowel flora is an important key in maintaining health and wellbeing. Good bowel flora can be achieved by taking probiotics. However, not all probiotics are the same and it is important to use the right probiotic for you.
