Flower Essence Therapy VS Aromatherapy

A common misconception is that flower essence therapy is a form of aromatherapy. Flower essences and aromatherapy are NOT the same thing. Aromatherapy utilizes plant aromatics, it is the smell or scent that is used as a form of aroma-therapy.

Flower essence remedies have virtually no scent. Flower essences are a liquid remedy made through a simple process of solarizing freshly picked blossoms in distilled water. Afterwards the flower petals are removed from the treated water. These can be returned to the earth (buried or composted) or tossed into a natural stream (creek or river). The essence-infused liquid is further processed and bottled as a stock remedy. Bottled essences are then dispensed through tincture eye droppers or mist sprayers.
