Choosing an Essential Oil


The AromaTouch Hand Technique is a quick, convenient “AromaTouch Technique On-the-Go.” It allows you to choose any essential oil for the experience. Citrus Bliss® or Wild Orange are perfect for midday pick-me-ups. Lavender or doTERRA Serenity® create special one-on-one time with your kids before bed. Blending Spearmint and doTERRA Balance® can create a relaxed environment at work. The sky’s the limit!

Movements of the Hand Technique

While the AromaTouch Technique is the go-to for almost every circumstance, it takes up to an hour to perform and requires a calm, private environment.

That’s why the AromaTouch Hand Technique is so valuable. It’s simple enough for anyone to perform and only takes a few minutes. Plus, it can be given almost anywhere: a plane, the workplace, a park bench, the café, at home—you name it! The simple movements in this technique deliver powerful feelings of wellness.
