Today on Mission Supercritical Andy i joined by Mark Webb from Aromatic Medicine. Mark says he knew from childhood that he would be a scientist or chemist.

Mark Webb’s definition of ‘Aromatic Medicine’ is “the use of extracted aromatic compounds by ALL body interfaces (channels of absorption) and dose forms to effectively treat a wide variety of physical, psychological and spiritual (body, mind, spirit) conditions and diseases.” By the way, Mark suggests we learn French in order to access the rich resource of current and historical botanical and ‘aromathérapie’ material available in that language.
