Ayurveda Aromatherapy

Ayurveda Aromatherapy is the combination of the two healing sciences, Ayurveda and Aromatherapy, where ancient tactile Ayurveda therapies are implemented based on the principles of Ayurveda* with the use of the rare and unique Ayurveda Aromatherapy essential and base oils.

Use of aromatics is noted in the Ancient Ayurveda Texts to promote mental equilibrium, however over time the Ayurveda physicians have used mainly herbal oil decoctions and infusions (which are not known of in the Aromatherapy world) and not the essential oils themselves.

Farida Irani bridged the gap between these two sciences in the early ‘90s and pioneered the concept of Ayurveda Aromatherapy by combining the different aspects of both sciences, effectively enhancing and reviving the ancient aromatic style of Ayurveda with the use of rare essential and base oils (most of which are not known of in the Western Aromatherapy world, to name just a few: mogra, gulheena, kewda, ashwaganhda, brahmi, jatamansi, tulasi, saffron, limbu etc), creating a unique and more beneficial holistic therapy.

The principles of Ayurveda were introduced to help enhance the use of the common oils being used and also enhance the diagnostic skills for the aromatherapy or spa practitioner, where they could understand body types and potency of the oils, using them accordingly in their normal practice or via the signature Subtle Energies’ Ayurveda Aromatherapy tactile body works.


Our Goals for our Ayurveda Aromatherapy are

• Bridge the gap between Aromatherapy and Ayurveda Aromatherapy
• Educate you to a high level of knowledge and expertise in various methods of Ayurveda Aromatherapy• Enable you to train as a professional, competent, caring and empathetic therapist
• Train you in the effective and safe practical applications of Ayurveda aromatherapy
