Dr Guylaine Laroumagne, coordinating physician, and a multidisciplinary team are behind innovative care protocols using essential oils.    
This medical and rehabilitation establishment specializes in nutrition, and more specifically in the treatment of obesity. 

The implementation of aromatherapy as a complementary treatment aims to :    

– Appetite reduction 

– Relaxation in the psychomotricity room 

– Sweet food cravings 

– Winter viruses….   

The grant will cover the purchase of equipment for a practical workshop, as well as olfactory glasses for psychomotricity sessions. It will also fund a university diploma in aromatherapy. In the longer term, the Bernard Descottes Center aims to conduct clinical studies on nutritional issues.
