Level 3 NAHA Aromatherapist handcrafts microbatches of eco-friendly at-home spa products made w/certified organic wild-crafted aromatherapy blends for holistic wellness & daily self-care routine A waft of patchouli lingered in the air as I rode my bicycle along the streets of the Mission District. I applied different essential oils on my body and clothes and around my apartment to breathe in the aromas that made me feel light-hearted and carefree. From that moment on, I fell in love with essential oils and could never use synthetic perfumes again. Fast forward to a new millenium and we land in the midst of a pandemic with COVID-19. As with everyone the pandemic altered my life and lifestyle. But It also gave me the opportunity to dive deep into the ancient knowledge and healing properties of organic essential oils. I read anything that I could get my hands on that discussed aromatherapy and essential oils. In fact, I came across an article about tea tree oil. Its antibacterial and antiseptic properties helped me heal and reduce the size of an infected keloid on my face. After that, I began to immerse myself in making skin care recipes for myself and blends for my health issues such as small fiber polyneuropathy. Then, I handcrafted a variety of organic and wildcrafted blends for my family. My 13yo daughter has been a dancer since she was little. After tapping for three hours, her feet can be pretty worn out. Other times, she's en pointe which makes her toes somewhat ache. So I looked into what essential oils could cool down the soreness in her feet. I made En Pointe Foot Repair which helps her have happy feet. I use it for my neuropathy as well, especially when I wake up in the morning. I continued to experiment and offered my blends to extended family, friends and neighbors who fortunately agreed to become my test subjects and gave me feedback on what worked and didn't work. Most of my blends are for skin care, bodily pain and ailments, and emotional and hormonal triggered moods, with an occasional holiday mix-blend thrown in for good measure. My approach is to provide the highest quality of essential oils which is why I strive to use, when available, organic and wildcrafted essential oils and vegetable carrier oils. No toxic additives and preservatives, no synthetic chemicals are added to my blends. On top of that, I practice the made-to-order system which means I make only small batches of blends. Furthermore, I like to add a "best by" date so you know how long you can use the blends. My hope is to help others and myself feel beautiful about ourselves, healthier in the products that we use, and freer from the stressors that affect us everyday. And that, my readers, is how Fusion Essentials, LLC came to be. Thank you for choosing my products and supporting independently-runned and women-owned businesses.
