		<title>Aromatherapy Skin Care</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Aromatherapy - an ancient science dealing with application of essential oils extracted from flowers, trees, herbs and resins, is more than sixty centuries old.

Aromatherapy - using essential oils - is also being put into use as a remedy to various problems, skin care being one of them.

Incurable, painful, not-so-pretty, and to top it off, depending on the type of virus, the illness is labeled 'oral/labial' or 'genital' - a little embarrassing to say the least!]]></description>
