Compliment vs conflict with

“One drop of essential oil, performing some task of healing, falls into the pool
of general knowledge and ripples out, touching others. This is how
aromatherapy is today. The ripples are getting stronger, and spreading
further, because aromatherapy works.”
~ Valerie Ann Worwood, “Aromatherapy for the Healthy Child”
