Why organic?
Of course I should say straight away that some of the most delightful aromatherapy oils in use like Rose and Jasmine are not organic certified because of the process used to extract them. However for the 36 essential oils cleared for aromatherapy use in US hospitals that are described in this booklet we offer an NOP organic oil among our 244 stock oils.
More and more professional aromatherapists, holistic massage therapists and everyday recreational users of aromatherapy are appreciating the potency and purity of certified organic aromatherapy oils, vegetable oils, hydrolats and cosmetic bases. But for the many who have not used them or do not know about the benefits of using certified organic aromatherapy oils, hydrolats and cosmetic products, this article will attempt to explain the value of using organic products compared with non organic ones and give an introduction to essential oils and their uses.
Sp suppliers have always had a commitment to organic argiculture and traditional methods. One the supply side the area of organic cultivation of organic aroma plants is expanding rapidly. At the same time state financial support for wine growing is diminishing creating opportunities for essential oil cultivation. Rather than produce an indifferant wine cultivators can now for example show the same dedication to cultivation of a hectare of thyme for thyme oil. At the same time Sp under the Lothian Herbs label has been successful in supplying pharmacies reaching a wider audience for pure essential oils.
Quality
Essential oils have many properties and are esteemed as preservatives for their anti bacterial and antifungal actions. No one can see their anti viral actions demonstrated without feeling a little safer! Because many of our Sp essential oils end up in food, flavouring and natural perfumery we source and bottle essential oils and manufacture aromatherapy products to the same exacting UK manufacturing standards of documentation, labelling, efficiency and hygiene as is required in the handling of food. Below I also describe some of the label security measures used to give consumers confidence they have been supplied with genuine products.
When it comes to quality some of the best feedback we receive is of course from our customers. The 6000 Shirley Price Aromatherapy Diploma holders are the largest and most demanding professional aroma community in the world. Both professionals and their clients are very discriminating. The Sp distributors around the world too are very knowledgeable and have a good idea of locally produced oils. Often Sp is alerted to outstanding oils by our worldwide distributors.
A key to buying good quality fresh oil is volume. I am grateful to the 2000 odd therapists and cosmetic hobbyists who order from Shirley Price Aromatherapy. In the aggregate their purchases enable the purchase of quality essential oils as close to the farm as possible.
Labelling
Look out for the approved labels of organic suppliers
Audit trail
Besides my professional work for corporate clients I have the job of sourcing the worlds finest essential oils. For the most part I work with the great farming/distiller cooperatives whose farmers produce oils 1000kg at a time under ongoing contracts. UK based distillers also produce many excellent oils from aroma crops grown in the UK. Organic inspection and certification begins at the farm and proceeds in an unbroken chain from the farm to the final product.
What are essential oils?
For someone like me this is the most fascinating of questions. All the time we are gaining a better understanding of the science of why plants produce essential oil constutuents and their uses both to the plants and to ourselves. Biosynthesis of essential oils proceeds to create essential oils which are then stored in glands for example menthol in peppermint. Steam distillation is used to extract the essential oil.
Artisanal distillers
For aromatherapy use artisanal distillers who use traditional methods are very popular. It is no secret that one of my favourite artisanal distillers of lavender essential oil is Lorella Bevilacqua. Living in the Tuscan hills of La Maremma in Italy Lorella produces a lavender with unique notes more reminiscent of a Lavender Absolute than a steam distilled lavender.
Her plants are carefully tended and benefit from natural springs in the hills. The distillation is artisanal proceding 20 litres at a time over 6 weeks rather than the more customary 1000 litre distillations on commercial scale farms. Shirley Price Aromatherapy are fortunate to purchase her output which in a season is some 30kg of lavender oil which we use in our blended oils, creams and gels. Lorella is immensely knowledgeable and herself a florentine botannic artist whose illustrations are used in textbooks. For her the production of lavender oil is a true labour of love involving all the family.

Andrea Butje of the Aromahead College in the USA keeps a blog with descriptions of the artisan distillers she meets. http://www.aromahead.com/blog/2011/11/02/community/
Its vital that the organic oils have been certified by a well recognised body for example the UK Soil Association. Usually this is the last step in a chain of organic certification so you can be sure that the production has been subject to annual inspection from the field to our factory in England.
There is so much knowledge and enthousiasm for essential oils all over the world. Here is the group of 100 taiwanese aromatherapists attending Robert Tisserands aromatherapy seminar in 2010.

Lorella's lavender also illustrates the importance of traditional techniques. Only the flowering heads are cut and distilled, the stalks are left on the plants for removal in Match.

Completeness and freshness
In order to get the results in the textbooks it is necessary to use true whole oils which have been prepared by traditional methods such as these. Pure, high grade organically-grown oils have therapeutic qualities accorded to them by the Congress of Grasse because they contain a variety of natural chemical components which remain pure and intact. The therapeutic properties ascribed to essential oils may depend on individual constituents present in only minute quantities. To obtain a response from the limbic system, the seat of emotion and memory, can require only 20 molecules! True essential oils have a creamy quality to them which some ascribe to the chemical imprint of the plants 'life force' or enthusiasm for life which dissipates as the oil oxidises through contact with the air. Like any perishable agricultural crop the freshness of the crop is key to a quality oil. Organic certified oils assist me ensure the oils are both complete and fresh.
Organic Essential oils do not contain any pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilisers and any other man made chemical residues. This makes the oils both safer and where they are used for their healing effect. Also as the plants are grown to organic standards they are healthier and more vibrant, therefore resulting in a more powerful and richer oil.
At our exhibitions therapists can smell for themselves the difference as I am always happy to open a bottle which a therapist is interested in.
6 reasons to use organic oils
There are many reasons for buying organic oils, one is simply that the aroma is much richer and fuller, but there are also sound health reasons for doing so.
It is safe, nutritious, unadulterated
It does not use artificial chemicals, pesticides and fertilisers
It is environmentally friendly
It is produced without GMOs, which are prohibited within the Soil Association Standards for organic food and farming
It reduces dependence on non-renewable resources
It relies on a modern and scientific understanding of ecology and soil science, while also depending on traditional methods of crop rotations to ensure fertility and weed and pest control
By caring for the soil for future geenrations organic farmers forgo a measure of profit now. However they create a product of great quality. Again turning to the esoteric aspects of essential oils some say that the care with which the oils have been farmed distilled and handled is reflected in the energy of the oil.
Many individuals are not aware of the importance of the quality of organic essential oils; they simply go to their health-food shop, chemist or mail order catalogue and buy whatever is available.
Consumers can be sure that members of the aromatherapy trades council consist of aromatherapy companies have carried out meticulous, painstaking research to find the best sources of high quality organic essential oils, and have selected only the purest and most potent oils from these specialist organic growers and suppliers.

HOW TO TEST THE ORGANIC OIL IS ORGANIC AND OF PURE QUALITY
For suppliers to be certain that the oils are sourced from the highest organic quality, suppliers need to follow some common sense procedures. It is important to travel in person regularly to meet with suppliers. Buying essential oils is like buying any agricultural commodity a process of getting to know people and staying in touch.
How to find the best organic oils yourself?
Beyond the label individuals should trust their own sense of smell. The therapeutic effect of the oils they are using will usually be obvious. Here it should be added that one of the primary reasons for only buying organic essential oils is that these oils do not contain any pesticides, chemical fertilisers, artificial preservatives, adulterants or – especially now – do not come from genetically altered plants.
THE SOIL ASSOCIATION STANDARDS
When a certified body like the Soil Association covers a company, they are scrutinised with great detail. Annual checks on stock levels and accounts are made by a Soil Association inspector who also confirms facilities procedures are routinely cleansed to a high standard, that labelling is correct and all manufacturing records are kept and make sense.
A detailed log of every single time a bottle of organic essential oil is filled is maintained, every time a container is used to fill an oil and every item/oil that arrives and is dispatched has to be timed, dated and logged.
By choosing organic agriculture you are supporting the environment and your own health.

Certification of Organic Essential Oils
There are many good certification bodies to choose from both in the U.K. and worldwide, Ecocert International covers the EEC. In the UK the Soil Association is one of the better-known bodies. All our oils are where possible organic including resinoids like Frankincense and Myrhh.
Organic Certification: Professional Standards
Organic farming is a carefully devised system of production defined by EU law and is based on the following principles:
• Building soil fertility;
• Minimal use of non-renewable resources (no chemicals);
• Minimise pollution and damage to the environment;
• Working with, not against, natural systems;
• Respect for animal welfare;
• Minimal processing or additives
Organic farming is governed by EEC Regulation No. 2092/91, which defines the basic standards of production and processing and the requirements for control and policing. This Regulation is implemented in Britain by the UK Register of Organic Food Standards (UKROFS). The statutory requirements are:
• Two-year conversion period prior to full organic status is achieved;
• Adequate physical and financial separation of organic and non-organic units under the same management;
• Application to, inspection by, and certification with, an approved inspection body, such as Soil Association Certification Ltd;
• Maintenance of adequate records to demonstrate compliance with the standards;
• Annual monitoring and inspection by the approved certification body;
• Strict requirements for labelling and for the use of additives and processing aids.

Testing procedure:
Include the use of the most up to date GC-MS (Gas Chromatography – Mass Spectrometry) laboratories in the UK.
Security devices
In countries where adulteration and fabrication of aromatherapy products is a problem we can provide scratch and reveal labels. This reveals a security number which can be checked by logging into Sp distributors websites. Here is an example.

COSTS
Because Sp supply in volume around the world Sp is able to bring the working therapist organic oils at very reasonable cost. Some oils are much dearer than conventionally farmed oils in which case the conventional oil is listed. As a rule of thumb organic citrus oils are 50% more expensive than pure but inorganic oils. As citrus oils are in any case relatively cheap it is worth paying the difference but we always list the non organic alternative so the choice is yours.
HYDROLATS
One of the fruits of increased availability of organic essential oils is inexpensive hydrolats. This is the ditilled water from which the oil separates which contains many useful water soluable aromatic elements. Hydrolats are valued for their cosmetic use in skincare and have been found to have important therapeutic properties. (1) In the english language Suzanne Catty is a highly regarded therapist and author. (2)
VEGETABLE OILS
With some exceptions it is not possible to recommend organically grown vegetable oils on cost grounds.
COSMETIC BASES
I do not favour statements of what I personally or a company is against. I prefer statements of what we are for! The company has alway maintained a popular cosmetic white lotion as a base for massage. Sp also stocks a range of organic cosmetic bases made to the highest standards.

http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20110408005040/en/ViroXis-Corporation-Initiates-Phase-II-Clinical-Trial
This illustrates some of the problems with clinical trials of aromatherapy products using essential oils which cannot be patented. Mysore soap and sandalwood oil has long established traditional use. A clinical trial to back that up is great. There is one problem. As essential oils cannot be patented the tendancy is to put $ intothe expensive clinical trials of products which can be patented eg synthetic organic molecules to which the body is unadapted and which may not do the job. Well done to this company for initiating this trial and I hope the investment is worth it. A lot of people are going to benefit if the trial is successful.

Reflective practice - keeping a practice diary
What is reflective practice?
Reflective Practice is the term given for something that many of us do every day without even realising that we are doing it! By recording what and how you have learnt from your experience in a step-by-step fashion you can earn 5 CPD points. It’s similar to keeping a private diary and requires you to be completely honest with yourself. You can use it to record a positive experience or a difficult one. There is no one correct way to do this but we have outlined a simple step-by-step guide below for you to expand as you use it more:
Step 1 - Start by looking back at a treatment you gave that was particularly successful or unsuccessful and ask yourself a few questions. What was the treatment? What did the client do and say that was significant and sticks in your mind? What did you do and say that was significant? How did they react? How did you react?
Step 2 - Then reflect deeply about what happened, why and how it happened. How did you feel about it? What was the most important issue that it raised for you?
Step 2 - Then reflect deeply about what happened, why and how it happened. How did you feel about it? What was the most important issue that it raised for you?
Step 3 - Think about what possible alternatives there were that you could have tried. What could you have done differently (if anything)?
Step 4 - Evaluate the treatment itself – what was the outcome?
Step 5 - How have you learnt from this experience? What would you do differently in the future? Do you feel more motivated for the future or less? Are there other approaches you would try in the future?
Step 6 - Having written all this down, file it in your CPD folder, making a note of your allocated 5 points on a summary sheet.

Aroma publications - International Journal of Clinical Aromatherapy
The International Journal of Clinical Aromatherapy was launched in 2004 in response to the demands of practitioners working with essential oils in healthcare and related professions. These therapists often use a range of application methods, styles and doses that may differ from the more traditional styles such as aromatherapy massage. Healthcare professionals also require a source of evidence based information in order to successfully integrate clinical aromatherapy within orthodox practice.
The IJCA meets these needs by presenting solid practitioner-orientated and evidence-based information in a professional format.
Unlike any other aromatherapy journal currently available, each issue has a specific theme, with all articles therein contributing valuable information concerning the chosen topic. Two issues are published per year.
All articles are peer reviewed and referenced where possible. Members of the editorial board are all highly experienced in the essential oil field.
