SEDONA, AZ, October 10, 2011 (Press-News.org) Joy Musacchio and Cynthia Brownley, owners of Stillpoint Aromatics, have launched a new business featuring pure essential oils imported from all over the world, hydrosols, carrier oils, NCBTMB approved aromatherapy workshops, and supplies.
Stillpoint Aromatics offers over 170 essential oils that are either certified organic, wild harvested, or unsprayed. The essential oils are imported from international small farmers and are shipped directly from the distillation. There is no middle person, hence there is no chance of adulteration or "adjustments" to the oils. The essential oils are then stored in a climate-controlled environment to preserve and extend the quality and shelf life. When a purchase is made, the essential oils are hand-poured by the owners and shipped to order.
Asked why this line was created, Musacchio responds, "Basically, we were unhappy with the quality and pricing of many of the essential oils on the market. We wanted to offer essential oils that we knew were ethically farmed or ethically wild-harvested. We wanted to know who the farmers were and how passionate they were about their crops and dedication to the land. We trust our farmers and treasure our relationships with them. We are committed to supporting farmers and distillers that are dedicated to farming without the use of harsh chemicals and pesticides."
Cynthia Brownley states, "We have worked with essential oils in our massage business for over 7 years, and have used them personally for over 23 years. Aromatherapy is an important part of our massage business as essential oils are used in many of our sessions. Quality and purity is of the utmost importance to us. We searched and searched until we found the absolute purest, high vibrational essential oils that are available. By sourcing and importing essential oils ourselves, we can ensure purity, quality, integrity, authenticity and fair prices."
Stillpoint Aromatics also proudly offers batch specific GC/MS reports for their essential oils. GC/MS stands for Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry and is a method that combines the features of gas-liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry to identify different substances within a test sample. GC/MS testing will show if an essential oil is adulterated. It will also list each of the chemical components present, which is very important when blending essential oils for a particular purpose or health condition.
Both owners of Stillpoint Aromatics have their Masters in Education. Aromatherapy Workshops are available throughout the year in Sedona, Arizona and abroad. Students learn how essential oils are used to maintain health, treat chronic and acute pain, and reduce stress. Participants gain a deeper understanding of Aromatherapy and become proficient in various uses and applications of essential oils. CEUs are available.
Stillpoint Aromatics, based in Sedona, AZ, specializes in genuine and authentic, pure essential oils, aromatherapy consultations, and aromatherapy workshops.

Study finds liver cancer increasing in low risk countries, decreasing in high risk countries
2011-10-10
ATLANTA -- October 6, 2011 -- A new study finds liver cancer incidence rates continue to increase in some low-risk parts of the world such as North America, and are decreasing in some of the highest risk countries of Asia. Despite this, the incidence rates in Asian countries remain twice as high as those in Africa and more than four times as high as rates in North America. The study will be published in an upcoming issue of Cancer Epidemiology Biomarkers and Prevention and appears early online.
Using data from the International Agency for Research on Cancer, American ...
Marijuana use may double the risk of accidents for drivers
2011-10-10
October 6, 2011 -- Over 10 million people age 12 or older are estimated to have driven under the influence of illicit drugs in the prior year, according to a 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health. While marijuana is the most commonly detected non-alcohol drug in drivers, its role in causing crashes has remained in question. To examine the link between marijuana use by drivers and risk of a car accident, researchers at Columbia University did a meta-analysis of nine epidemiologic studies and found that drivers who test positive for marijuana or report driving within ...
Why does conflict arise when social identity is threatened?
2011-10-10
Be it at school, office, the neighborhood or the community people live in, conflicting situations amongst various groups might arise on an almost day to day basis. Today, the prevalence of these intergroup conflicts is on the rise and has resulted in minor disagreements amongst friends to waging full scale wars between countries.
Social psychology research has always maintained that individuals often identify themselves with the social group they belong to and will bond together to defend their identity at all cost. Now, a new study published in the latest issue of Psychological ...
Astronomers find elusive planets in decade-old Hubble data
2011-10-10
In a painstaking re-analysis of Hubble Space Telescope images from 1998, astronomers have found visual evidence for two extrasolar planets that went undetected back then.
Finding these hidden gems in the Hubble archive gives astronomers an invaluable time machine for comparing much earlier planet orbital motion data to more recent observations. It also demonstrates a novel approach for planet hunting in archival Hubble data.
Four giant planets are known to orbit the young, massive star HR 8799, which is130 light-years away. In 2007 and 2008 the first three planets were ...
Researchers find race disparity in post-hospital arrival homicide deaths at trauma centers
2011-10-10
AMHERST, Mass. -- New research based on post-hospital arrival data from U.S. trauma centers finds that even after adjusting for differences in injury severity, gun use, and other likely causes of race difference in death from assault, African-Americans have a significantly higher overall post-scene of injury mortality rate than whites. The study was conducted by Anthony R. Harris, emeritus professor of sociology at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, and colleagues and published in August by the Journal of Trauma, Injury, Infection and Critical Care.
The study, ...
People without cars, financial assets less likely to marry: study
2011-10-10
A study published this week in the American Journal of Sociology finds that people who lack personal wealth in the form of a car or financial assets are significantly less likely to enter into a first marriage. The results, according to study author Daniel Schneider of Princeton University, shed light on recent changes in marriage patterns in the U.S.
For the past few decades, Americans have been getting married later in life and are becoming more likely forego marriage altogether. Between 1970 and 2000, the median age of first marriage in the U.S. rose by about four ...
NASA's Aqua satellite sees birth of two tropical cyclones in Eastern Pacific
2011-10-10
The tropics in the eastern Pacific were quiet for a couple of days after Hurricane Hilary dissipated, and today gave birth to Tropical Depression 10 and Tropical Storm Irwin. NASA's Aqua satellite captured an infrared image of both storms and saw the powerful convection in the center of Irwin that enabled the storm to go from a depression to a tropical storm in a short time.
The eleventh tropical depression quickly grew into Tropical Storm Irwin this morning, as strong convection surged around its center of circulation. That convection (rising air that creates the thunderstorms ...
A 3-D look at Philippe provided clues of transition into a hurricane
2011-10-10
Tropical Storm Philippe took its time to strengthen into a hurricane because of wind shear problems. The wind shear lessened, and Philippe became a hurricane today, after 12 days of moving across the Atlantic Ocean. NASA's TRMM satellite saw towering thunderstorms and intense rainfall within Philippe yesterday, which provided forecasters with a clue that the storm was strengthening. Philippe reached hurricane status this morning, Oct. 6, 2011.
Over two days, the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite provided forecasters with cloud heights and rainfall rates ...
Astrophysicists spot pulsed radiation from Crab Nebula that wasn't supposed to be there
2011-10-10
An international collaboration of astrophysicists, including a group from the Department of Physics in Arts & Sciences at Washington University in St. Louis, has detected pulsed gamma rays from the neutron star at the heart of the Crab Nebula with energies far higher than the common theoretical models can explain.
The pulsed gamma rays had energies between 100 and 400 billion electronvolts (Gigaelectronvolts, or GeV), far higher than 25 GeV, the highest energy radiation from the neubla previously detected. A 400 GeV photon is 11 orders of magnitude – almost a trillion ...
Crab Pulsar emits light at highest energies ever detected in a pulsar system, scientists report
2011-10-10
An international team of scientists has detected the highest energy gamma rays ever observed from a pulsar, a highly magnetized and rapidly spinning neutron star.
The VERITAS experiment measured gamma rays coming from the Crab Pulsar at such large energies that they cannot be explained by current scientific models of how pulsars behave, the researchers said.
The results, published today in the journal Science, outline the first observation of photons from a pulsar system with energies greater than 100 billion electron volts -- more than 50 billion times higher than ...
