Since the early 1900's, essential oils have offered an increasingly popular alternative to allopathic medicine. These titles represent the definitive works on the subject.
Dr. Gerber’s book has sold more than 125,000 copies and is considered the definitive reference work on energetic healing. Publisher’s Weekly says, "This book is at the cutting edge of the whole health movement." Vibrational Medicine teaches how to understand the human organism as a series of interacting multidimensional energy fields. Each chapter has a "key points to remember" section that serves to summarise concepts and give the necessary building blocks for subsequent chapters. It is unfortunate that the spiritual dimension of man is not taught in medical school, but it must be taken into account to truly understand the basic nature of health, illness, and personal growth. This fascinating book will open new worlds of understanding in human healing.
