Aromatherapy Certification Program graduate“As an aromatherapist, I am here to help you take charge of your health.”
How Melissa took the plunge.
I began Scented Balance as an outlet to feed my creativesoul. What began as this creative outlet now includes the amazing journey of aromatherapy. I love to guide and help you to trigger your body's own natural healing abilities through the use of pure essential oils.
I am a mom, grandmother (my grandkids call me Shan), avid golfer, book reader, container gardener and hopeless DIY'er. There is always something to learn and I'm usually in the middle of it!
I'm proud to also be a Holistic Life Coach. Combining aromatherapy and coaching provides awesome tools to help you get unstuck from every area of your life AND feel good about doing it! I offer private consultations online as well as in person and would be very grateful for the opportunity to talk with you!
Scented Balance, Inc.
Through the wisdom of nature, I offer aromatherapy tools to help you take charge of your health with holistic products. I carefully handcraft a full line of holistic products to help you soothe your chronic pain, ease your anxiety, nurture your depression and cool those menopause symptoms!
My bestselling product is PsoMaxx(TM), a wonderful balm that addresses the itching and rash of psoriasis, eczema and other contact dermatitis issues. The body butters and soaps are especially good for anyone with dry/itchy, sensitive skin, chemical allergies and autoimmune disorders such as eczema and psoriasis.
I handcraft unscented products that are made specifically for anyone who is undergoing chemotherapy/radiation treatment. These products are completely chemical-free and will not interfere with any treatment plan prescribed by your doctor.
I loved my experience at Aromahead! I took a deep breath, took the plunge and never looked back! The instructors are quick to answer your questions and my Case Study instructor, Ann Lohr, was such a joy to work with. My eyes have been opened to the magic of essential oils and I want to tell all my clients how easily they can help themselves take charge of their health.

What made the difference, in Melissa’s words.
Melissa took a deep breath and enrolled. Here is what the program looked like from inside.
The plunge that pays off
Enrolling can feel like a leap. For Melissa it never once felt like a mistake.

For the fence-sitters
Years away from a classroom is no barrier: the depth pulls you in rather than pushing you away.
If you're on the fence, just not sure or haven't been in school for a while, no worries! It's detailed, in-depth and you'll find yourself diving right in and loving every minute of it!
