We asked Jean-Pierre LeBlanc, Product Formulator for Saje Essentials, 10 questions about teens and aromatherapy. Here's what
he had to say.
How can teens benefit from aromatherapy and essential oils?:
Teen hormones are particularly sensitive. The use of synthetic over the counter drugs can have short and long term effects
such as mood swings, anger and depression. The use of phyto-medicines is pro-biotic rather than anti-biotic
(meaning they work with nature not against it).
Essential oils are the easiest and most pleasant of the phyto (plant) medicines.
Aromatherapy seems like a "girl thing", can guys use these products as well?:
Absolutely. The masculine segment is the fastest growing in the world of aromatherapy as men want results and aromatherapy
delivers. Men want logic. When they understand that aromatherapy is highly concentrated therapeutic plant material that is
applied topically to affected areas, it makes sense to them.
What are the benefits of using essential oils
(compared to commercial products for things like acne, headaches, muscle pain, etc)?:
A topical application is more effective than ingesting drugs through the intestinal tract.
Phyto (plant) medicine have side benefits to their use, rarely if ever a negative side effects.
Synthetic drugs all have side effects - NO EXCEPTIONS.
When should essential oils NOT be used?:
During pregnancy or when it is contra indicated (meaning when an oil is recommended for something that contradicts
what you need it for, when it is specifically not to be used with another oil or when a professional tells you to stay away)
, or not properly blended.
Can essential oils help with acne? How and which ones?:
Very much so. A skin care system with essential oils will retrain the skin to operate as it should. The Balancing Elixir was
created for that purpose. The product formulator for Saje, your humble writer, was a case study in overcoming acne.
Can essential oils help with dry skin? How and which ones?:
Rose and neroli are examples of oils that transform skin to it’s original and intended state. Our Rejuvenating Elixir
accomplishes that very well.
Can essential oils help with fatigue? How and which ones?:
Rosemary has been clinically tested to "wake up the brain in less than 15 seconds" . At Saje we have formulated a blend
called Energy Boost for exactly that purpose.
Can essential oils help with studying and memory? How and which ones?:
Memory gains can be had, 30% to 100% by using single oils or better yet a blend as a memory anchor. Put 2 drops on the back
of the hand when studying and have the same blend at exam time. It works and it’s fair game!
Can essential oils help with puberty and growing pains? How and which ones?:
The PMS blend called Moon Cycle is very effective at regulating hormonal shifts and
Pain Release can effectively relieve
the pain and inflammation of sore muscles and joints during growth spurts. These are both specially formulated blends.
Can essential oils help with love and romance? How and which ones?:
Aphrodisiacs are best created with essential oils. As such, we have created special products, like our signature
Love Potion No 9. These products will bring a sensual scent to
someone’s bath or shower or provide stimulating massage oils.
