The best book ever
This is seriously my favorite book. I am a birth and postpartum Doula, and I I refer to this every week. I have several copies of it because I lend it to clients for their own use as well. If you are a birthmark or pregnant, I highly recommend this book, especially if you are into herbals!

A Must Have
This book is a must have for me! It was very beneficial during my pregnancy and it’s something I will continue to have on hand and recommend to other women. Whether you’re doing birth work, a first time mom, or not a first time mom– there is a lot of information and benefit in Demetria’s book as usual. Learn how to safely use aromatherapy from the author– who is a mom, doula, midwife, and all around knowledgeable aromatherapist. She gets it, and wants us to benefit.

Demetria Clark has written a beautiful and educational resource
Demetria Clark has written a beautiful and educational resource; Aromatherapy and Herbal Remedies is both insightful and useful. When I first began reading it, I had the bias that it would be something of a resource for myself, as a birth worker, but difficult to encourage my clients to read. I was wrong.birtharts.comI have already recommended this book to three clients and will continue to do so as the wealth of information and read-friendliness of Aromatherapy and Herbal Remedies is sure to make this a regular on bookshelves across America. Her book is broken down into aromatherapy for pregnancy, labor and birth, and breastfeeding, and remedies for pregnancy, labor and birth, and postpartum/breastfeeding. She also includes an introduction to herbs, aromatherapy, and information on how to grow, harvest, and prepare your own ingredients.She has a concise list of herbs and essential oils, as well as their uses and contraindications. Additionally, she provides a substantial section on recipes for everything from teas to poultices, and diffusing blends to massage oils/salves. I’m excited to refer to this book time and time again and have no doubt it will become a staple on many birth workers book shelves.

Nice book, a bit heavy on the essential oils and not so much information on herbs as I would have liked.
