It is not essential to believe the essential oils used in modern aromatherapy have links to the signs of the zodiac (Argus, November 11) to recognise aromatherapy as a highly successful complementary therapy.
All the oils mentioned in the article are efficacious in the treatment of the conditions mentioned on people, whether or not they are born under a particular zodiac sign.
I know of a successful Christian aromatherapist who practises in Brighton and who would totally reject astrology and zodiacal signs, but who treats her patients with essential oils, massage, and the playing of worshipful music.
She, with the permission of her patients, always commences her treatment sessions with prayer. Let none be put off aromatherapy because they don't believe in astrological signs.
