Guest guest Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 Has anyone ever heard of this company or seen their website? Here is what they have on their first page...I'd like to get some feedback from you all if possible, especially those in the UK. Thanks. www.americanapothecary.org Welcome to our website. Here you can purchase natural non-toxic products (for home, workplace, and personal use), A-CAM approved essential oils, bulk herbs, and more, and learn about upcoming A-CAM education opportunities. Please have a good look around, and be sure and email us or call the main store in Kendall, Miami, FL (305-598-2822) for questions! Our store encompasses a fourteen foot bar where visitors may sit and sip a cup of complimentary herbal tea and receive the latest information of Complementary Alternative Medicine. Naturally yours, Miguel A. Cisneros-Abreu What American Apothecary Offers You, and how we are different from other essential oil providers: In America and Great Britain, most people have the mistaken idea that essential oils are only useful as food flavorings and nice smells. British " aromatherapy " preaches that essential oils must not be touched unless heavily diluted, that they must not be inhaled directly from the container, and that internal use is prohibited, even when larger quantities of the same oil are used as legal food additives! This approach flies in the face of both science and historical uses of essential oils. Numerous scholarly works and research studies have shown a much deeper understanding of the many powers of essential oils for healing. While recent U.S. and British medical studies have shown that British-style " aromatherapy " has no clinically measurable effect, studies by the German Commission E show that the traditional German and French usages are quite effective. Some oils are used topically without dilution, some oils are prescribed by doctors for internal use, others in inhaled in concentration directly act on the limbic, endocrine, and circulatory systems, and still others are used as powerful antiseptic aerosols. For 25 years, the founders of American Apothecary have been researching the scientific, anecdotal, and historical uses of essential oils and natural plant components as non-toxic alternatives to allopathic medicines. Allopathic medicines with side effects as serious as organ damage in a drug used to treat toenail fungus! In all this time, the founders of American Apothecary have worked closely with Western doctors of allopathic medicine (MD's), Physician's assistants, nurse practitioners, laboratory biologists, PharmD's (Pharamceutical Doctors), Dentists, Chiropractors, Physical Therapists, Massage Therapists, Doula's, Yoga and Qi Gong Instructors and more, getting input from establishment and alternative health practitioners alike. Complementary Alternative Medicine, the term coined by an act of U.S. Congress, exactly describes what we do. There are many times when western MD's would prefer not to use toxic pharmacology to remedy their patient's ills. When possible, we provide natural non-toxic solutions. We also provide education on toxic conditions in your home, school, and working environments, and simple, natural ways to remedy the situation. All of our products are backed by the reseach and authenticity of A-CAM: Aromatherapy in Complementary Alternative Medicine. We provide access to A-CAM education and A-CAM approved essential oils (the highest quality, from the very first pressings of the finest plants, with the largest amount of active plant phytochemicals to deliver maximum effect, with no additives, dilution, or toxic petroleum-based solvents). We provide natural bulk North American herbal teas, so that the properties of the oils can be taken as tea to deliver age-old, effective relief. We make the latest western scientific research on herbs (FDA, Department of Agriculture, German Comission E monographs, and more) available to the public through our public-outreach classes.
