Creating Connections in Your Community with AromaTouch ® 6 | 102 | 400+ | 800+ CARE FACILITIES EMPLOYEES EMPLOYEE SERVICE HOURS AROMATOUCH® HAND TECHNIQUES GIVEN Let those numbers sink in for a few seconds. If there is still any question in your mind regarding the impact dōTERRA ® is having on communities, not just around the world with the dōTERRA Healing Hands Foundation®, but surrounding its global campus in Pleasant Grove, Utah, let them vanish. That’s just eight months of grassroots efforts of a few employees with big hearts and a little AromaTouch Technique® training. IT ALL STARTED WITH AN IDEA. The AromaTouch Hand Technique is a simple and effective way to promote well-being and build powerful connections through the experience of essential oils—much like the full AromaTouch Technique, but wrapped in a smaller time commitment package. After internal AromaTouch Technique trainings, by May of 2017, dōTERRA had an army of willing and able employees ready to get out into the community and begin spreading the love. Enthusiastic recipients were not difficult to find, as six care facilities around Utah County eagerly agreed to a visit from our service- minded employees. Seeing how enthusiastic our employees are about serving in their community and developing connections with the residents of these facilities through the AromaTouch Hand Technique has been an amazing experience. And it is just beginning. Ani Gabrielson, dōTERRA Product Center Senior Manager shares her experience visiting the elderly at the local care facility: “I have enjoyed the AromaTouch Hand Technique service opportunities so much! I have been able to see how much change each one of us can create simply by sharing our time with others. We can brighten someone’s day just by having a conversation with them, and it completely changes our day as well. I have definitely seen the positive outcomes that this project has had, not only on the individuals that we visit, but also on myself and the other employees. I am proud to work for a company that cares about the community and puts in the time and effort to give back.” “It makes me so happy to work for a company that allows me to serve the community. The AromaTouch Hand Technique made a positive impact in the lives of these people at the facility. It is great to see them experience the benefits of essential oils.” – Edward Vasquez, Product Center Many more community partnerships and service opportunities are in the works for 2018.

Coming to a peer-reviewed scientific journal near you, dōTERRA’s scientists are currently in the process of conducting a human clinical trial to collect empirical data to validate the various benefits of the AromaTouch Technique that you, the practitioners and receivers, are already aware of.
