Responsible Aromatherapy™
• Respect for your dog’s keen sense of smell: Dogs have remarkable olfactory memory and can smell up to 100,000 times better than us.
• Situations (and dogs, horses, people) are unique: Using a highly diluted product allows you to control the amount and frequency of dosage to use the least amount needed for the desired result.
• Resource protection: Diluting essential oils prevents the over-harvesting of plants from both overuse and exploitation of depressed economies.
• Protect physical health: Some essential oils are irritating to skin and mucous membranes when used in high concentrations.
• Cost effective: Diluting essential oils is not only safer, it’s also more affordable.
• Less is best: Highly trained (certified, registered, clinical) aromatherapists promote minimal exposure through controlled dosage and dilution to prevent sensitization.
better botanicals™ from Earth Heart's founder, Vicki Rae Thorne:
I believe everyone deserves to feel free and confident to explore the world, so I help active, eco-conscious pet parents with ‘hyper-sensitive’ dogs find safe, reliable, natural relief through our 100% plant-derived, responsibly sourced, expertly formulated aromatherapy remedies. And because dogs savor the world through scent, our gently aromatic remedies comfort dogs and their humans without overwhelming their sensibilities.
It was love at first smell when I attended my first aromatherapy intensive in 1992. I’d been diagnosed with fibromyalgia 4 years earlier, and was inspired to start making remedies to address my constant pain and stress. Because I was pregnant and had a five-year-old, I wanted everything to be safe for my entire family, and I’ve applied that same level of responsibility to formulating for dogs.
I founded Earth Heart in 1996 to help others learn how to safely and effectively use herbs and essential oils as part of everyday life. The exploitation of plant habitats and indigenous economies along with the growing trend toward misleading information led me to create Responsible Aromatherapy™ as the basis of ingredient sourcing and customer education.
