In today's episode of Aromatic Chat, I have the pleasure of speaking with Michael Ford of Avalon Holistic Wellness, based in Covington, Louisiana. Michael is a massage therapist, cosmetologist, aromatherapist, and herbalist. He holds certifications in many, many modalities, and primarily helps people deal with stress management and stress-related issues.
Self-described as a "weird child", Michael says that his interest in herbalism and aromatherapy started when he was very young - maybe five years old - watching his mother garden. His interest increased as a curious teen when he started learning about plants as medicine and the science behind it all. He went on to study at the American College of Healthcare Sciences and eventually established his own practice.
This episode includes some special moments where we get to geek out over shared interests that have nothing to do with aromatherapy, the story behind his business name, and his top tips for self-care.
