The International Journal of Clinical Aromatherapy was launched in 2004 in response to the demands of practitioners working with essential oils in healthcare and related professions. These therapists often use a range of application methods, styles and doses that may differ from the more traditional styles such as aromatherapy massage. Healthcare professionals also require a source of evidence based information in order to successfully integrate clinical aromatherapy within orthodox practice. The IJCA meets these needs by presenting solid practitioner-orientated and evidence-based information in a professional format.
Each issue has a specific theme, with all articles therein contributing valuable information concerning the chosen topic. Two issues are published per year.
