It is only in recent years that aromatherapy, or essential oil therapy, has gained substantial acceptance; this is primarily due to French veterinarians who have begun using essential oils and hydrosols in their practices. Laypeople, of course, have been enjoying great success treating animals with the very same substances for many years; for it is not just the medical professionals who can safely and effectively administer these aromatic oils. Anyone enabled with quality essential oils or hydrosols and adequate knowledge can use a plant's most concentrated and energetic byproducts to improve the health of their animals, and treat and prevent various illnesses and common ailments. Aromatherapy is actually a science that has a much larger archive of supported scientific data than most other holistic care methods. However, most of these studies were originally published in French or German. Aromatherapy was the first natural, holistic therapy the author began using, and she relies on it as my primary form of healthcare to treat and balance all sorts of minor ailments and discomforts in the lives of her family and their pets. She has rarely needed to use any other sort of remedy to achieve the desired result. These powerful substances are the most fascinating, sensual and complex of all natural therapies -- a combination that proves to be so enthralling it eventually develops into a grand passion for many.

Holistic Aromatherapy for Animals: A Comprehensive Guide to the Use of Essential Oils & Hydrosols with Animals by Kristen Leigh Bell is a great book on the subject. The book starts out by giving some basic background on what aromatherapy is, how essential oils and hydosols work on animals and animal problems that can be treated with them.
After explaining the "tools of the trade" and quality issues, 52 essential oils and 10 hydrosols are examined. The oil's color, scent, dominant chemical group, where produced, part of plant used and how it is extracted is explained as well as what situations to use it in and precautions to use.
This is followed by chapters on dogs, cats, horses, birds and other small animals. In this section are many essential oil, shampoo, rinses, sprays and hydrosol formulas. I have tried some of these formulas for my dogs and they have worked really well.
If I were to fault this book, I would say the section on horses is rather short.
Also, to be noted is that not all ailments were covered in this book.
All in all, I'd say this is a great book on the subject, easy to read and use and worth what I paid for it. I'd recommend it to my friends.
