About Aromatherapy Associates

We have been sharing the therapeutic powers of essential oils for over 30 years. Starting out as therapists in the early 1970s, our founders, Geraldine Howard and Sue Beechey, connected with the emerging practice of aromatherapy. Training under renowned aromatherapist Micheline Arcier, who had herself studied aromatherapy with its original pioneers Marguerite Maury and Jean Valnet M.D, they experienced first-hand the powerfully positive effects of essential oils on our physical and emotional wellbeing. It began a love affair with aromatherapy.

In 1985, Geraldine and Sue's passion for teaching, practicing and blending oils spilled into a desire to share the benefits of aromatherapy with a wider audience. Aromatherapy Associates was born with a small range of therapeutic-grade products and treatments.

Continuing on our rich legacy, we demand the highest quality from our products, searching the world to source the finest ingredients to create our mood, spirit and mind-enhancing formulations.

Aromatherapy Associates

In the 1970s, aromatherapy was rapidly gaining popularity. This was how Aromatherapy Associates co-founders Geraldine Howard and Sue Beechey met, as the women shared a passion for the budding industry. Under the tutelage of the world-renowned aromatherapist Micheline Arcier – who studied under the pioneers who started it all, Marguerite Maury and Jean Valnet MD – they began to recognise the soothing benefits that essential oils could have, both physically and mentally.

In 1985, Howard and Beechey decided to go it alone, starting the Aromatherapy Associates brand. Here they were able to create therapeutic-grade treatments which could be enjoyed in the comfort of the consumer's home.

Using naturally sourced ingredients, Howard and Beechey went on to lay the foundations for some of the cult classic products that we enjoy today. For example, their vegan Rose Candle housed in its modern white ceramic holder makes the perfect addition to any home décor theme. Its uplifting notes of rose, sprinkled with enchanting geranium and rich palmarosa, is infused with around 20ml of essential oils, meaning the luxury last for longer.
