R.J. Buckle's 'Aromatherapy for
Clinical Professionals' Course

taught by Carol Scheidel, BSN, RN, CCAP, director, R.J. Buckle Associates, LLC
in partnership with the Parkview Holistic Nursing team 

The Parkview Holistic Nursing team invites clinical professionals to participate in a 1 1/2 day clinical aromatherapy course Sep. 29 and 30. The instructor, Carol Scheidel, director, R.J. Buckle Associates, LLC, will lead participants through the well-known R.J. Buckle Clinical Aromatherapy for Hospitals, Health Professionals and Massage Therapists course.

 The 'M' Technique® Hand and Foot is also offered Sept. 30 from 1 - 5 p.m. at an additional fee.

Who can attend: Only clinical professionals, including: RNs, APPs, Pharmacists, MDs and Massage Therapists. 

Course Content: 
During the Clinical Aromatherapy for Hospitals (CAH), Health Professionals and Massage Therapists course, participants will learn how to:
  • Describe the historical path of aromatherapy
  • Define a true essential oil
  • Determine the purity of an essential oil
  • Describe the chemistry of essential oils
  • Discuss the application of essential oils
  • Compare 6 essential oils and possible clinical uses
  • Discuss case studies
  • Discuss 2 methods of extraction
  • Apply principles of essential oils to case studies of clients with health challenges
  • Discuss protocols, policies and training options

The 'M' Technique course, offered as an add-on option to participants, is defined by R.J. Buckle as:

A method of structured touch. Each movement and sequence is done a set number of times, in a set pattern, at a set pressure and set speed that never change. This makes it extremely easy to learn. And, because the technique is completely choreographed it is completely reproducible and therefore useful in research. The 'M' Technique® works on skin receptors that send signals to the brain. The technique has been described as physical hypnotherapy, ‘a kind of meditation’ and a 'spiritual dance'. The ‘M’ technique® is suitable for the very fragile, critically ill or actively dying patient, or when someone is just very stressed or when the giver is not trained in massage. 

Course Instructors:

Participants will be instructed by Carol Scheidel, BSN, RN, CCAP, director of R.J. Buckle Associates, LLC. For more information about Carol and R.J. Buckle Associates, visit www.rjbuckle.com.
