Relaxation for body, mind and soul – the AromaTouch® Technique
The AromaTouch® Technique is a wonderful method for giving your body complete relaxation. It uses eight different doTERRA CPTG® certified essential oils, which are applied in a specific sequence to the energy zones of the back and feet and gently massaged in.
These oils work on both a physical and emotional level. They help to find balance, cleanse cells, and regenerate the body. It's a wonderful way to harmonize body and mind – perfect for a moment of peace and relaxation.
Phase 1 >>
Stress management
Emotional stress, worry, lack of sleep, etc., can trigger various symptoms in the body. If these warning signals are ignored for a certain period of time, this will have negative effects on the entire body.
dōTERRA Balance® essential oil blend provides a feeling of calm and well-being. Beginning to use this oil creates a deep connection between the two people.
The essential oils Balance and Lavender support the body in calming down and deep relaxation, as well as in achieving inner balance.
Phase 3 >> Anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving
AromaTouch promotes circulation, gently releases tension, and provides an invigorating sensation. It has a cooling effect and soothes irritated tissue, which is especially helpful when the body needs to recover from physical exertion or tension.
Deep Blue also supports the muscles by relaxing tense tissue and toning the skin. This blend not only helps relieve pain and other discomfort but also reduces mental fatigue and provides renewed energy – perfect for restoring balance. Together, the two blends create a refreshing and soothing experience that revitalizes both body and mind.
Dr. David Hill
Dr. David Hill, a chiropractor, developed the AromaTouch® Technique to restore balance to the body. He identified four main causes of illness: stress, toxic exposure (e.g., from cosmetics and the environment), inflammation, and autonomic nervous system imbalance. The AromaTouch® Technique aims to restore homeostasis and reduce the effects of these factors.
Phase 2 >>
Strengthen the immune system
The essential oils On Guard and Tea Tree strengthen the immune system and have cleansing, germicidal, and disinfectant properties. Tea tree oil alone contains 90 different active ingredients and has limitless applications.
These two oils support the immune system in its important task and thus help the body to heal itself.
Phase 4 >> Homeostasis
The essential oils of wild orange and peppermint play an important role in helping the body return to its natural state of homeostasis. Homeostasis means maintaining the body's internal balance, with various regulatory systems playing a crucial role, such as the control of circulation, body temperature, pH level, and water and electrolyte balance. Hormone regulation is also part of this process.
Wild orange and peppermint support this process by not only restoring inner balance but also lifting mood, strengthening the immune system, and offering antibacterial properties. They also have a relaxing, calming, and cooling effect – perfect for revitalizing and rebalancing body and mind.

The Science of Aroma and Skin Contact
The AromaTouch® Technique combines the senses of touch and smell to create a profound, personalized experience with essential oils. It is scientifically known that the sense of smell has a direct connection to the limbic system in the brain, which is responsible for emotions, memories, and moods. Scents affect us instantly and can evoke intense emotional responses.
The AromaTouch Technique utilizes these biological processes to promote well-being. When essential oils are inhaled through the sense of smell, they activate areas of the brain that positively influence our mood, reduce stress, and strengthen emotional connections. This makes the technique not only effective but also scientifically sound.
The science of touch in AromaTouch® technique
The AromaTouch® Technique harnesses the power of touch to create a deep emotional connection—and this effect is supported by science. Touch is our first form of communication, beginning even in the womb. In the early years, it plays a crucial role in the parent-child relationship, even before words can be spoken. Recent research shows that touch is an incredibly powerful form of emotional communication, almost as effective as words or facial expressions.
Touch allows us to convey various emotions such as love, gratitude, fear, or anger with astonishing precision – even between strangers. It can therefore not only strengthen emotional connections but also trigger physical reactions in the body that cannot be achieved with other forms of communication.
While massage, for example, can cause targeted muscle relaxation, the gentle touch of the AromaTouch technique promotes the release of oxytocin, the “love hormone”, which reduces stress and increases feelings of security and well-being.
This form of gentle touch therefore has profound benefits not only emotionally, but also physiologically, for both the recipient and the giver.
