Interview with
Marco Rosini, Wellness Consultant
In my October 15, 2015 article (https://holistic-coaching-dedonato.blogspot.com/2015/10/essenze-di-albero-il-potente-effetto.html),
entitled Tree Essences: The powerful
impact of the Cosmic Energy (IQ) on our health and well-being, we already
considered topics such as Aromatherapy, Vibrational Medicine and Essences, in
that case of trees, and their benefits on human health.
Today I am pleased to host Marco
Rosini, Wellness Consultant, with whom we will be discussing about the
Essential Oils he deals with in his profession.
T.: Welcome, Marco, on my blog. It is a pleasure to have you among my guests.
M.: Thank you Dr. De Donato. It's a pleasure for me too.
T.: Marco, Why don’t we start with introducing yourself to our readers and by telling us a little about you, your professional life, how you got interested in Essential Oils and why you found them particularly intriguing.
M.: I got interested in essential oils in 2017, until then my knowledge
was completely superficial. I thought
they were used only in massage centers, to "aromatize" the rooms
through the sticks dipped in small oil bottles. In August 2017, a friend introduced me the
benefits of them by "incensing" (that is, by speaking very highly
about) the qualities of these oils "DoTerra", compared to anything
else you could find on the market. With
little trust at that time, I bought a basic set of oils with a free guide to
better appreciate their qualities. Since then I have studied, deepened my
knowledge of them, and tried multiple combinations.
T.: What exactly does your activity consist in, and how does it
work?
M.: Simply stated, I share the benefits of oils with friends and
acquaintances; I try to understand if they have a "health reason" to
use them; I leave them a sample of a specific oil; at this point it’s the oil
the “one” that really does the work for me. The result is that people become literally
enthusiastic...
I would call it "a mental
state" more than an activity. I
remember one day at a cafeteria a boy who stood ahead of me in line, suffering
from a strong sinusitis congestion, and who asked me if I had an
"oki", that is, a well known anti-inflammatory drug, so I took
advantage of that situation and invited him to inhale some of the respiratory
mixture "AIR " . Since
then he has become an avid DoTerra fan.
T.: In case our readers wished to know more about Aromatherapy,
Essences and Vibrational Medicine, they can visit the link above and read also
other articles that I published in the past and that refer to the concept of
Qi/Chi/Prana/Vital Force, which is in fact the basis of alternative therapies,
Aromatherapy included. As for our interview, however, we want to focus on other
aspects, citing for example the fact that the essences – such as the same oils
you deal with – are actually derived from the processing of herbs and fruit
collected in specific areas of world. Each
area of the world, that presents specific characteristics at both environmental
and climatic levels, allows to obtain a certain result and, therefore, also a
different quality of the harvest, hence of the final product. When these
conditions are particularly favorable they contribute to the production of
crops that are qualitatively better (NOTE: These principles also apply to the
production of Bach Flowers, determining, for example, a difference between
those Californians and Australians). As I understand from the information
obtained from your site the company that produces the essential oils that you
use in your business, follows exactly these criteria.
Can you give us more details
about it?
M.: Exactly, DoTerra uses exclusively oils obtained by steam or
cold pressure distillation, (in the case of citrus) from plants that thrive in
optimal environmental conditions, to be harvested at the time of greatest
maturation when the concentration of essential oil reaches its climax. This creates a significant difference compared
to any oil obtained from a plant grown in a hybrid environment.
T.: Can you give us some examples of which herbs and fruits are
collected and from which countries?
M.: Certainly: lemon from Sicily, bergamot from Calabria, oranges
from Morocco, lavender from Provence, oregano from Turkey, ylang ylang from
Madacascar, eucalyptus and melaleuca from Australia, vetiver from Haiti, mint
from Washington state, copaiba from Brazil, cardamom from Guatemala ...
We can safely say that DoTerra
extracts raw material from all over the world.
T.: Why would you recommend DoTerra Essential Oils and why should
our readers consider them superior to many other similar products available on
the market today? What distinguishes them in a particular way from making them
"excellent" compared to others?
M.: Mainly for 3 reasons:
1 - Ethical: DoTerra pursues a
sustainable procurement model with over 2/3 of the oils coming from so-called
"developing" areas; it helps the local populations to come together
in cooperatives and provides them with a fair and stable remuneration over
time; through the "healing hands" foundation, programs with a strong
social impact are activated, such as the construction of wells, schools and
medical clinics. All this creates a deep connection with the local populations.
2 - Absolutely pure oils. To
guarantee the quality is the fact that every single oil has to go and pass five
phases of analysis, in order to obtain the CPTG certificate (Certified Pure
Therapeutic Grade):
Test 1: Gas Chromatography
Test 2: Mass Spectrometry
Test 3: FTIR Scanning (Fourier
Transform Infrared Spectroscopy)
Test 4: Microbiological Analysis
Test 5: Organoleptic Analysis
3 - Traceability: Each bottle has
a serial number on the bottom (for example: 180529 peppermint), which
opportunely inserted in https://sourcetoyou.com/quality-reports-gcms.html,
provides the analysis of the product we have in hand; with few exceptions, DoTerra
oils are edible.
T.: Essential Oils, more than "healing diseases" can
have, nonetheless, an extremely profound and positive impact on our well-being
and on our health in general. Do you
have any particularly interesting experience you would like to share with us
and that you had with your customers who have benefited in particular from
specific oils?
M.: Personally I have eliminated the "athlete's foot",
that is, small sores that affect the interdigital spaces of the feet, using
melaleuca in fractionated coconut oil. My
mother was able to eliminate a wart with oregano oil and several friends have
renounced the "pump inhibitors" (in an interview given by Dr.
Gioacchino Leandro, president of the Italian gastroenterologists, "I'm at
risk of stroke," was explained that "one patient out of two uses them
uselessly; they do more harm than good and are also expensive") in favor
of the digestive oil mixture or pods.
T.: Do you have any material that can demonstrate the beneficial
effects of oils?
M.: Of course: my friend Raffaella (naturopath) has treated with a
mix of frankincense, lavender and melaleuca a patient who was hastily diagnosed
with an "atopic dermatitis" and since a couple of years could no
longer rest the foot on the ground due to the pain…
