All Things Topical

Have you been wondering how herbs get into the skin? Whether herbs are actually absorbed by the skin? Or how effective they are when applied topically? What about carrier oil choices?  Which one should you use and how? Well, you’re in good company.

Come to the class and we will take a deep dive into the physiology of the topical world of herbal medicine. Also included in the class will be ways to increase absorption, properties of commonly used carrier oils including temperature ranges for extraction, and tips for the best methods for extraction. This class hopes to be the most information-packed class on the topic to date. 

*A portion of the tuition will be donated to the Van Etten Food Pantry.
