Salvatore’s dedication to aromatherapy has seen him hold positions in professional associations and government committees to ensure that the educational standards of professional aromatherapy are maintained and improved.
Salvatore has also been teaching aromatherapy since 1988. He is often called upon to speak at international conferences about aromatherapy, running a holistic and ethical business and what it means to go natural and organic. He is the author of many Aromatherapy books including one that is currently being used as a text book for Aromatherapy students world wide.
When Sal created Perfect Potion in 1991, it was his vision to create a business that would support and nurture the individual, community and environment to flourish while listening, guiding and reconnecting body, mind and spirit.
When Sal first discovered essential oils in the early 1980s, he felt in awe of the magical effects that these heavenly scents have on us – they open the door to our soul and invite us to appreciate the beauty and wonders of nature and in doing so they gave us the impetus to search for meaning in our life.
