to any clinician, whether aromatherapist or other health professional who is involved
in palliative care. The book easily crosses
the ground between a palliative care clinician with minimal knowledge of
aromatherapy and an aromatherapist with little knowledge of palliative care.
Carol writes from her extensive clinical experience both as a registered nurse
and aromatherapist and uses language in a considered professional way. Evident through
all the text is the profound desire to make this time of someone’s life as comfortable
as possible, whilst upholding principles of safety and efficacy.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The 300+ page is divided into 15 chapters, taking us on a
journey from the background explanation of what palliative care is, through to evidence
based practice then leading us into a detailed chapter on what exactly
essential oils are associated aromatics are. The comprehensive table of key constituents,
plants present tin and possible functions is an excellent resource for any
aromatherapist. Again, the focus is very much on safety and quality.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Chapter three introduces us to the myriad of ways essential oils
can be incorporated, again with safety at the forefront with a brief discussion
of the types of medications and cautions needed (such as not using oils high in
1,8 cineole) which can increase dermal absorption of some drugs. Excellent consideration
of techniques such as compresses, foot baths and the stick inhalers rather than
diffusers. Chapter four talks about resilience and the information in this
chapter reaches far wider than aromatherapy and palliative care- we can all learn
something to apply in our own lives. A case study provides a wonderful example.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The spiritual aspects are explored in chapter five and
introduces the reader to the notion of spiritual distress felt by many
undergoing palliative or end of life care. I especially liked the language around
spiritual assessment, which is not religion dependent. Some aromatic
suggestions are provided to help ease spiritual distress. These notions are
anchored with some excellent case studies.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Chapters, six, seven, eight and nine all approach the
specifics of cancer. Up to this point the term palliative care has care has
been an inclusive term, as not all palliative patients have cancer and not all cancer
patients need palliative care. Each chapter is anchored with at least one case
study. Each chapter highs cancer specific concerns such as pain relief, cancer fatigue
and treatment issues and how aromatherapy can be integrated into management of
these symptoms. There is a very helpful discussion in chapter 9 on the endocannabinoid
system and a brief view of cannabinoid benefits for some of these symptoms.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Chapters ten, eleven, and twelve follow three key pathological
sequelae of palliative and end of life care, regardless of the underlying disease.
Chapter eleven explores breathlessness; chapter twelve looks at all the gastrointestinal
effects (including oral care) and chapter thirteen is all related to the skin.
Each chapter has a solid discussion of the underlying pathology (disease
changes) and the current typical medical treatment. Then an exploration of the possible
evidence-based aromatherapy benefits, again supported with a case study. Each
of these chapters can be used across any number of clinical areas and while
some of the language is technical, by its nature, the information contained is invaluable
to ensure the best treatment is used to manage symptoms without adding any risk
of harm to the patient.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Carol is careful not to exclude the burden on caregiver sand
family members with a loved one undergoing palliative or end of life care. In
many countries palliative care is delivered in the home supported by expert
clinicians reaching out from a hospice service. However, in some cases this is
not so and the burden to provide care falls heavily on family members to
navigate this difficult pathways for their loved ones. Chapter thirteen on resilience also has lessons which relate to
wider life, with lots of handy strategies.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">I must admit chapter fourteen had me in tears reading the
case studies of the last moments of life and how aromatherapy can assist. Some of the content on grief was valuable, and
my only suggestion here is I would have liked to seen the seminal work by Dr
Lois TonkIn, about growing around grief, mentioned, which grew out of the recognition
that grief doesn’t go through stages as initially posited by Kubler-Ross.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The final chapter is a short chapter with good suggestions
for the way to move forward through more research, better quality research and early
referral to integrated palliative service.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Then follows the exceptionally strong reference list</span><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>In conclusion</b><o:p></o:p></span></p><p>
</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"> Carol’s book makes a
considered and valuable addition to aromatherapy and palliative care. It is not
a book of recipes for problems, rather than approach is to provide detailed background
to what the issues are, what can be done to help and comes from a position of the
reader having some sort of baseline understanding of patient care and medical language.
Whilst I would not consider this a book for beginning practitioners of
aromatherapy, I do consider it an essential one for anyone who wishes to expand
their knowledge. It should be available in every hospice as a reference book
and used as a reference in any courses
about palliative care. Congratulations Carol for bring this book to life.<o:p></o:p></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwliA0iOma_S1-vtte1nP-lI4vYcW3oJl8LSjExi_W-8wp289yF-gv4yYWedTQA49dUQcROJK1PCz0SENZofPMxsYQeom4S6CbvpnbVmsxlPi8KZyM7l2kIZAouWBaL9Ae0Ky_PSPP1CeEr8aHcVRTmZNN1zEb9CojKtn8mDzyX9V55DpI50SjLxec0g/s1501/to%20order.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="363" data-original-width="1501" height="139" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwliA0iOma_S1-vtte1nP-lI4vYcW3oJl8LSjExi_W-8wp289yF-gv4yYWedTQA49dUQcROJK1PCz0SENZofPMxsYQeom4S6CbvpnbVmsxlPi8KZyM7l2kIZAouWBaL9Ae0Ky_PSPP1CeEr8aHcVRTmZNN1zEb9CojKtn8mDzyX9V55DpI50SjLxec0g/w578-h139/to%20order.png" width="578" /></a></span></div><p></p><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p>Wendy Maddockshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13164885735539570816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4369707649545576622.post-49347421632654548232022-11-02T16:10:00.006-07:002022-11-02T16:17:59.351-07:00<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj9ftXOfO9eocYZjUW_50RErokH1rD_VbzTDoUPk8qBjuXb6_liCZSBS24-zE4io0RUAvVW5R8Fpi_3nnmOQKhtjd0lcqJQ7wodzB4-A34bR9PMZ9NyXCDm5T7gKKuieTWl1jgnayL10c_RjeipCuTwPjlbWJC3165nmLc3fgwiE_kHF1xwwOGi0v3TYw" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="734" data-original-width="559" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj9ftXOfO9eocYZjUW_50RErokH1rD_VbzTDoUPk8qBjuXb6_liCZSBS24-zE4io0RUAvVW5R8Fpi_3nnmOQKhtjd0lcqJQ7wodzB4-A34bR9PMZ9NyXCDm5T7gKKuieTWl1jgnayL10c_RjeipCuTwPjlbWJC3165nmLc3fgwiE_kHF1xwwOGi0v3TYw" width="183" /></a> <b>"Broken Nurses Research"</b></div><br /> My other passion is Nursing history and I recently presented at the great war group conference in Chester, UK.

You may wonder what qualifications do I have to comment- firstly I am a registered nurse with past experience in critical care, I am also trained in clinical aromatherapy for over 25 years, have studied, researched and taught it. My doctorate degree explored the use of essential oils in the side effects of cancer treatment. I maintain my currency by reading scientific journals and attending scientific conferences. I don't listen to marketing. I have recently completed a review of some 250 clinical studies on aromatherapy.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">First up I am going to be very frank and that <a href="https://www.health.govt.nz/our-work/diseases-and-conditions/covid-19-novel-coronavirus/covid-19-vaccines" target="_blank">vaccination</a> is the first and most important tool in our toolbox. Without this the virus will continue to mutate and seek out the most vulnerable. This is already happening in the countries of Africa, where there are low vaccination numbers and other strains emerging. Barely a year ago the global community could only hope a vaccine could be developed, and now there are several available. this blog post is not about the merits of one type of vaccine against another. Science and history tells us vaccines save lives, and for COVID-19 if we are unlucky enough to catch it even though vaccinated, it significantly reduces the severity of our symptoms and reduces the chances of us needing hospital care.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Let me also be very clear, COVID-19 is not 'just a flu' (remember influenza is also a potentially fatal infection and not something to be brushed off). Just a few short years ago we had the Swine flu in NZ and healthy young people died.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span></span></span></p><a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: helvetica;">For detailed information on the current COVID situation produced by the Ministry of Health visit <a href="https://www.health.govt.nz/our-work/diseases-and-conditions/covid-19-novel-coronavirus/covid-19-health-advice-public/about-covid-19" target="_blank">here</a>.</span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">There is great global interest in whether essential oils and other aromatic plant extracts are effective in killing the SARS-CoC-2 virus and some of this is detailed in the blog by Robert Tissersand <a href="https://tisserandinstitute.org/sars-cov-2-essential-oils-in-silico-studies/">SARS-CoV-2, Essential Oils and In Silico Studies - Tisserand Institute</a>. No doubt in time science will find a range of essential oils which will help. We are not there yet.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">This blog post is really to help support some of the misinformation I am reading on line about essential oils and aromatherapy, often peddled by untrained 'consultants' who are trying to sell their overpriced MLM branded products. If you are ill please seek the advice of a trained aromatherapist or a pharmacist <span style="background-color: red;"><b>IN ADDITION TO MEDICAL ADVICE.</b></span> Do not follow the advise of someone just trying to make a few $$ off you. The <a href="https://www.nzroha.com/" target="_blank">NZ Register of Holistic Aromatherapist</a>s has details of practitioners near you. </span></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">COVID -19 is a serious and potentially life limiting respiratory illness that has a systemic effect on many organs. In New Zealand there are now hundreds of people in the community with active COVID-19 and many more affected by the condition known as Long COVID. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">I have seen a list of recommendations circulating, put together by people who have had COVID and are isolating at home. On the whole this is a helpful list for people to think of however I would like to add some professional advice to this. </span><span style="font-family: helvetica;">The list refers to "Eucalyptus Oil' with no further information. This is potentially dangerous advice.</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghPZtoqsShbOlKJSxKBmA9Y6A_3P4y7gJbN0JaaibUHIm3rlpFg_jVnVd8S762nfuzH-ejurF3DGHmUM2r-5mcBdPCvK97V6KHFvlXDHBSosyovRmhP_hxCqfxFIGLc05eIzA_b7Gr9mD2/" style="font-family: helvetica; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="1314" data-original-width="558" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghPZtoqsShbOlKJSxKBmA9Y6A_3P4y7gJbN0JaaibUHIm3rlpFg_jVnVd8S762nfuzH-ejurF3DGHmUM2r-5mcBdPCvK97V6KHFvlXDHBSosyovRmhP_hxCqfxFIGLc05eIzA_b7Gr9mD2/" width="102" /></a></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Firstly 'eucalyptus oil' could mean virtually any type of oil derived from one of the hundreds of eucalyptus trees. there are around 15 or 20 though which are produced on a commercial scale. the most common of these (and cheapest) is <i>Eucalyptus globulus,</i> which is widely available, and often rectified to conform to the British pharmacopeia standard. It is high in 1,8 cineol, also called eucalyptol, which is an expectorant. Expectorants are helpful when someone has a cough but can't cough up their secretions. This means it promotes coughing. Absolutely the opposite of what someone with COVID-19 or long COVID needs. The World Health Organisation has a discussion piece of long covid <a href="https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/media-resources/science-in-5/episode-47---post-covid-19-condition?gclid=Cj0KCQiAhMOMBhDhARIsAPVml-HnZH_6tSv5GZ6mia4BoQdcj5IKksd2qNH5MYBU3iQT2G1CSEvdogUaAhFiEALw_wcB" target="_blank">here</a>.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">From an aromatherapist perspective oils are selected based on the symptoms of the person and any other health conditions or cautions they may have (e.g. are they pregnant, on medication, have allergies for example). Rarely will a trained aromatherapist use an 'off the shelf blend' in a clinical situation.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">The careful use of diffused essential oils into a room could have a number of benefits such as soothing the airways, freshening the air, creating a nice ambient environment, reduce the number airborne pollen for example. Some are indeed antifungal, antiviral and antibacterial. To reiterate though the science doesn't yet support essential oils being a <span style="background-color: red;">TREATMENT TO REPLACE MEDICAL CARE IN COVID</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Whilst many of us grew up with facial steaming (head over a bowl of boiling water with a blob of Vicks in), this is now not recommended- there are risks of burning, and with COVID 19 affecting skin chemistry, there is a greater risk of facial burns from the steam and the essential oil. Much better to use a vaporiser or a diffuser where it isn't boiling water. If you don't have a diffuser- a bowl of warm water away from children or using a warm compress to the chest is just as effective. Or adding 1-2 drops of essential oil to a cotton pad and pinning to your collar.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">This is a list of commonly available and safe essential oils to help someone isolating at home with COVID-19.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">1. Lavender -<i>Lavandula angustifoli</i>a is a sedating and calming oil- 1-2 drops on the pillow at night to help sleep or in the bath. Add to an ultrasonic diffuser to create an ambient environment</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">2. Lemon peel essential oil- <i>Citrus limon-</i>refreshing, antiviral - add to a diffuser . Do not use in the bath or in a facial steamer (will burn the skin)</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">3. Mānuka or Kānuka- <i>Leptospermum scoparium and Kunzea ericoides</i>- soothing, anti inflammatory- add 2-3 drops to warm water for a gargle to ease sore throat- SPIT OUT do not swallow. Can also be added to a diffuser </span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">4. <i>Eucalyptus smithii or Eucalyptus radiata-</i> antiviral, cough suppressant (e.g. dry hacking non productive cough)</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: x-small;"><b>DISCLAIMER: THIS ADVICE IS NOT TO REPLACE MEDICAL ADVICE.

the level 4 COVID 19 lockdown in May 2020. The survey was live for two weeks
when the country moved to level 3 and before level 2 commenced. You indicated

of the study. Some details have been omitted to protect privacy of

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;"><span lang="EN-AU" style="font-family: arial; font-size: x-small;">The request to
participate in the online survey was posted on Facebook, Linked In, Twitter and
several online chat forums and participants were asked to share the survey with
their own networks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;"><span lang="EN-AU" style="font-family: arial; font-size: x-small;">A total of 124
surveys were completed correctly with all participants indicated they used some

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;"><span lang="EN-AU" style="font-family: arial; font-size: x-small;">89% of respondents
were female and 79% were aged between 36-65 years old.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;"><span lang="EN-AU" style="font-family: arial; font-size: x-small;">80.73% respondents

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;"><span lang="EN-AU" style="font-family: arial; font-size: x-small;">31.7% had
increased their use of natural remedies and supplements in direct response to
the risk of COVID19. Supplements chosen had a perceived antiviral or immune
boosting effect. Vitamin C was the most popular remedy chosen. Most people
purchased their supplements either at a supermarket or pharmacy with only 6.5%
obtaining supplements from a qualified practitioner. Five percent of
participants prepared their own remedies. Around 40% told their Dr or
registered health professional about their use of supplements or natural
remedies. The remainder either didn’t or were selective in what information
they gave depending on what they were seeing the Dr. about. The following
images provide further summary of findings.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
