Fang Xiang Liao Fa: Essential Oil Analogues of TCM Herbal Formulas
Some people just don't like needles. Children, for example, can be very difficult to needle. Then there are people who have to be careful with herbs. Celiacs are limited in that they can only use gluten-free herbs. This book provides an alternative to both. With a 53 page TCM-based Materia Medica of essential oils, a full Materia Medica of carrier oils, and over 100 blends, all based on TCM herbal formulas, complete with point prescriptions and application techniques.

This is a much needed book and a brilliant addition to my practice.
Aldrich & Bornemann have done due diligence in creating a wonderful translation of some of the most common Chinese herbal formulas into English language essential oil blends. They also provide some quick, easy references on individual oils from multiple perspectives. I am finding this particularly useful in working with patients who are on a lot of western meds and for whom, herbs are too likely to conflict with those meds. Highly recommend.
