“You did an excellent job, Stefania! You made an accurate assessment of your therapeutic action. Overall, you showed all the skills needed for creating a professional client file and conducting a fruitful consultation.”

— Doctor Vania Yotova, MD, PhD, ND (ANPQ).

I consulted Stefania for long term stress, sleep issues and lack of energy.  She listened attentively, asked thoughtful questions and proposed a realistic healing plan based on my priorities and the medications I was using. I am sleeping better and slowly regaining stamina.  I found Stefania to be caring and knowledgeable.  She is among my favorite care providers. Anne (Ottawa)

I received as a gift from my dearest Stefania the roll on oil for muscle and joint pain and with great satisfaction I found out that it really works. I had a sprain in my thumb and after applying the remedy I had a great benefit, the pain was reduced and almost disappeared, after less than an hour from the application, thanks Stefania. Eliana Longo (Hotel des Epoques)

I made an appointment with Stefania to discuss my recurring headaches, weight management, and my health & wellness goals. During the consultation, Stefania was an active listener and asked thoughtful questions about my health, and my health priorities. She provided me with opportunities to take notes and to pose as many questions as I needed to; I never felt rushed during the appointment.  I definitely left the consult feeling more knowledgeable as well as confident to follow through on Stefania’s recommendations. For instance, over the course of a month, I was able to pinpoint the trigger for my headaches and I now know how to eliminate them.  I consider any consultation with Stefania as a valuable investment in my health. 
Deborah K. - Ottawa

Working in the trades takes a toll on the body with already having 2 knee surgeries and shoulder and back pain, Stefanias roll on oil has helped more than taking the Advil /Tylenol route to relive pain. I definitely recommend her to anyone trying to find a more natural way for pain and muscle relief. Alex, Ottawa

I can't say enough good things about Stefania's oil! After struggling with cysts in my breasts and a stubborn ganglion cyst on my wrist for quite some time, I decided to give this oil a try. To my amazement, the results have been great..

Within just a few days of consistent use, I noticed a significant reduction in the size of the cysts in my breasts. The discomfort and worry that had been a constant part of my life began to fade away. But the true test came with the ganglion cyst on my wrist. I've tried various treatments before including having it drained to just see it return, but nothing worked as effectively as Stefania's oil. The cyst has shrunk considerably, and the pain and inconvenience it caused are now practically gone.

The oil itself is of excellent quality, with a pleasant scent and a soothing texture. It's easy to apply and absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy residue. Knowing that I'm using a natural product without harsh chemicals gives me peace of mind.

Stefania's oil has truly been a game-changer for me. I highly recommend it to anyone dealing with similar issues. It's a fantastic product that delivers real results. Thank you, Stefania, for creating such a wonderful oil! J. M.- Ottawa

You are ALREADY a healer and now with the new courses you'll have even more knowledge and "credentials". Z. (Ottawa)

It’s the third time I order the mosquito repellent spray: it's fantastic! Honestly, I was skeptical at first because I had tried so many and then I didn't want to buy any more products that were toxic for the skin and the environment. It's incredible how Stefania's product keeps mosquitoes away and it also has a pleasant scent! Thanks Stefania! T. Rome, Italy

I had a long-standing dryness and itch pre and post menopause. I tried many different creams including prescription medication, which did not work. Stefania’s Donna Intima oil smells wonderful and works very well! Just a tiny amount applied once or twice a day over 2 weeks greatly improved my condition. Thanks a lot , Stefania! H. M. Ottawa

Thanks again for your amazing work.  You’ve helped my family with different health issues: SIBO, leaky gut, cholesterol balance, hot flashes and menorrhagia. We feel you are our greatest secret!

C.D. Ottawa

Thank you Stefania for the product that I am presently using! I have hearing loss and tinnitus.
The personalized tincture (herbal extract )has helped me to tolerate the tinnitus. There are moments during the day when the tinnitus is quiet! Brava Stefania! L.K. Ottawa

As an avid traveler, I found myself suffering from altitude sickness, and always catching a virus on every trip. I used a personalized tincture (herbal extract) and roll-on essential oil blend from Stefania for the first time during my most recent trip and was able to spend the entire trip without any illness. It was my first trip EVER that I didn’t get sick during or right after. I used the inhaler before the flight. Both rollers on my feet and wrists. Stefania worked with me to create a custom blend that was tailored to my needs, in travel form. These products have now become a travel staple in my toiletry bag, and I recommend to anyone looking into taking control of their health to work with Stefania to create a custom solution tailored to your needs.  S. A., Ottawa

I am absolutely thrilled with Stefania's Hair Elixir! My hair was previously dry and wirey, and after just two applications, I am seeing incredible results. The transformation from dull to shiny and smooth is nothing short of remarkable.
What sets this elixir apart is its ability to deliver intense hydration without any greasiness. It absorbs beautifully into the scalp, leaving it nourished and revitalized. I've tried numerous products claiming to restore moisture without weighing down the hair but all have left my hair oily and weighed down, but Stefania's Hair Elixir truly lives up to its promise.
The pleasant surprise came from the fact that my hair didn't just feel healthier; it also looked noticeably shinier and more vibrant. I can't wait to see the long-term effects with continued use. Stefania has created a true gem with this elixir, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to revive and beautify their hair!
Grazie, Stefania for formulating such an outstanding product! I'm excited to make this Hair Elixir a permanent part of my hair care routine. Jody M. Ottawa

Thank you so much for your helpful and healing products! Thank you also for your prayer when I told you I was ill.

I felt a bit nauseous after some time: I put the Nausea Support Roll-on and the bad feeling almost instantly went away!
Z.G. Ottawa

Love Stefania’s products. Ingredients that you can trust! A must try is the elderberry herbal tincture. It helped heal my flu symptoms. Brava Stefania! Francine, Ottawa

"I've found my new go-to muscle balm! This roll-on formula is a game-changer for soothing tired muscles. The application is effortless, and the cooling sensation provides instant relief. Whether it's post-workout soreness or just a long day, this muscle balm has become my trusted companion. The blend of ingredients is not only effective but also has a pleasant, refreshing scent. I highly recommend it for anyone in need of targeted muscle relief." Jody M. Ottawa

“I have slight arthritis in my left knee. I also injured my knee earlier this year and am undergoing physiotherapy. I recently started using Stefania’s massage oil (with rosemary, juniper, black pepper) for knee pain. Almost instantaneously, the massage oil helped reduce the swelling and pain in my knee. I am very grateful to Stefania for this product. Deborah K., Ottawa

"Ho conosciuto la signora Borrelli sul treno, quella mattina presi una storta andando alla stazione e salii sul treno con la caviglia dolorante e gonfia. Davanti al mio posto c'era lei che mi offri di usare un suo rollon per traumi/distorsioni. Lo misi immediatamente e dopo pochissimo il dolore si attenuo fino a sparire. È stata un angelo, se non l'avessi incontrata avrei sicuramente compromesso la mia vacanza. Ci scambiammo i numeri e al mio rientro la contattai per  fare incetta dei suoi prodotti. Ho usato "Essential Oil Blend" per fare i suffimigi e immediatamente ho avuto una sensazione di sollievo, respiro libero e mal di testa alleviato. Stefania è una Donna veramente in gamba e ringrazio sempre il fato di avermela fatta conoscere." Valentina Lasagna - Roma

TRANSLATION: "I met Mrs. Borrelli on the train, that morning I sprained myself going to the station and got on the train with a painful and swollen ankle. In front of my seat there was her who offered me to use one of her rollons for traumas/sprains. I put it on immediately and after a very short time the pain eased until it disappeared. She was an angel, if I hadn't met her I would have definitely compromised my holiday. We exchanged telephone numbers and when I returned I contacted her to stock up on her products. I used a, Essential Oil Blend to make steam inhalation and immediately had a feeling of relief, free breathing and relieved headaches. Stefania is a truly talented woman and I always thank fate for meeting her." Valentina Lasagna

Thank you for your passion, knowledge and commitment to helping those who suffer mental illness. Thank you for the amazing workshop. Everyone enjoyed it immensely ! Stefania is my favorite and best essential oil expert.
Nicole L., ex-Vice President, Communications & Partnerships, The Royal Mental Health Centre, Ottawa

Thank you so much, I really like the products you gave me. I absolutely know that you are always very scrupulous and for this I trust your advice. - Sharon, Ottawa

Before using Stefania's hair product, my hair fell out in clumps, on the comb and on the sink. Stefania has therefore prepared a specific product for hair loss. Already after the first time I used it I noticed that there was less hair on the comb, afterwards I saw a continuous improvement and the hair is soft and fluffy.
Zaira, Rome, Italy

Je voudrais témoigner de la qualité du travail d’herboriste traditionnelle de Stéfania qui nous offre un service sur mesure, adapté à chaque cas particulier. Elle prendra le temps de vous écouter, elle analysera la situation, puis dans son laboratoire elle élaborera une recette spéciale qui ciblera divers aspects de la pathologie et elle vous l’expliquera en détail. Dans mon cas d’arthrose et de bursite à la hanche (combinées) elle m’a proposé un traitement de longue haleine. Un mélange à concentration moyenne d’HE et une 2e fiole hyper-concentrée avec d’autres HE pour les moments de crises aiguëes. Guérir de bursite et d’arthrose n’est pas facile, mais je peux vraiment confirmer les vertus apaisantes des mélanges préparés par Stéfania. Grâce à ses recettes j’arrive à mener une vie à peu près normale. J’ai confiance en la qualité de son travail, elle pratique son art avec passion et cela me semble le plus important. On est très loin d’un produit de consommation standard. À essayer assurément ! Emmanuel D. -Quebec

I would like to testify to the quality of Stéfania’s traditional herbalist work, which offers us a tailor-made service, adapted to each individual case. She will take the time to listen to you, analyze the situation, then in her laboratory she will develop a special recipe that will target various aspects of the pathology and explain it to you in detail. In my case of osteoarthritis and hip bursitis (combined) she offered me a long-term treatment. A medium concentration mixture of HE and a second hyper-concentrated vial with other HE for acute crises. Curing bursitis and osteoarthritis is not easy, but I can really confirm the soothing virtues of the mixtures prepared by Stéfania. Thanks to her recipes I manage to lead a pretty normal life. I trust in the quality of her work, she practices her art with passion and this seems to me the most important. We are very far from a standard consumer product. To try for sure! Emmanuel D- Quebec

For at least three months I occasionally start to feel a tickle in my throat at the end of the afternoon. This is the worst thing because I start coughing and can't stop. It's terrible. I almost go into convulsions. Last night when the tickling started I used the allergy relief scent inhaler and the tickling stopped!!! What a relief!!!!! -

S.H. Ottawa

Grazie!! Stefania con i tuoi prodotti sto molto meglio!! I miei dolori sono migliorati mettendo sulla parte dolente Ristora e Muscle e Joint ! Grazie ancora - Assunta - Roma, Italy

"I am absolutely delighted with this natural linen spray Incanto a Positano! The calming aroma is incredibly soothing, creating a serene and peaceful ambiance in my home. The gentle fragrance lingers on my linens, promoting a sense of tranquility and relaxation. It's become an essential part of my bedtime routine, and I can't recommend it enough for anyone looking to add a touch of calm to their space!" Jody M. Ottawa

In 2005 I had a back surgery, laminectomy and disectomy operation on my L4 / L5 disc.  Since then, I have tried various pain relieving creams, oils, and gels since lower back pain is a constant in my life.  I am currently doing a doctorate at Ottawa University and my sedentary life, stress, and lack of sleep often cause lowe back pain.  Happily, I discovered Stefania’s “Balm with Italian Pino Mugo (Mountain Pine) and Abete Bianco (White Fir) oils.”  It worked instantly!  It smells wonderfully, it’s not greasy, does not stain clothes, and relieved my back pain.  I strongly recommend this cream for anyone with pain but also HIGHLY recommend Stefania’s classes… she is a kind, talented, knowledgeable, good hearted person and I am so happy I met her.

Thanks again for the products. I used the psoriasis elixir last night and I already feel a difference! Wow! My hair is less oily and my scalp is less dry. Frances F. - Ottawa

I have been suffering from severe pain in the lumbosacral area for a long time, I have taken various medications, some have slightly relieved the pain, others have not!! Since I have been using the set of oils that Stefania prepares, I have had a lot of relief without taking drugs which, in addition to not working, create other problems for me! Thanks Stefania

Assunta L. - Rome, Italy

Frustrated with high quality, expensive, store-bought products for very dry skin around my eyes, likely caused by ageing, a common condition called “dry eyes” and very sensitive, dry skin in general, I turned to Stefania to see if she had anything to recommend. The Illumina eye oil, made of a blend of different oils like calendula, pomegranate, blueberry, opuntia ficus indica oil, etc..), seemed worth a try. Amazingly within 48 hours, I was living free of the constant stinging and scratching sensation on my eyelids. A small bottle, completely worth the price, so easy to use, and what relief. I am re-thinking a range of other face creams I use as a result.
Nobina R. - Ottawa

“Your seminar was compelling for its contents and for your great ability to transmit knowledge with passion. We felt your preparation born from experience and commitment in the study and this gives you great merit. I will treasure it, for myself and for the people I am helping in the hospital. This is why I would be very pleased to explore the topic of stress and how to mitigate it with the use of oils. On this issue, in fact, I thought of organizing a meeting with all of you and sharing what I am doing for the post-traumatic recovery from stress of the health workers of my hospital. Your help would be important.
Doctor Patrizia Pertolan, Psychologist, Santa Maria degli Angeli Hospital , Pordenone , Friuli (Italy)

For years I have had bursitis in my left hip for which I have needed cortisone shots when it flared up.  More recently I have started to suffer lower back pain especially when doing activities such as gardening.   When I asked Stefania if she could recommend anything, she prepared a customized mixture of oils which I now use daily.  I am amazed at how much better my back and hip feel and how I can move with ease.  What a difference this oil has made!  Thank you, Stefania!  
Sharon H. - Ottawa

I feel very fortunate to have found Stefania Borrelli and her beautiful skin care products. I have been using Stefania’s Dolce & Solare Moisturizing Face Butter Cream, Idrata Moisturizing Hand & Body Mousse, and Rigenera Hair Elixir. They are all very effective, feel wonderful, and have a soothing scent. It is a rare thing to find skin care products that are made by hand, and by someone that you trust. Stefania’s in-depth knowledge, and her care in helping the client to choose the appropriate product, are truly special and unique. Sheila B, Ottawa

J’ai eu le plaisir d’essayer deux produits aux huiles essentielles de Stefania Borrelli, un mélange d’HE « Ristora » et un échantillon à vaporiser . Stefania prépare ces mélanges sur mesure, certainement avec amour, pour répondre au mieux aux maux que ses clients voudraient résoudre ou du moins atténuer. Ses produits bio sont de grande qualité et de surcroît des plus authentiques ! En effet, elle va visiter les exploitations agricoles qui produisent ces HE pour s’assurer de leur qualité. J’ai utilisé le mélange Ristora avec assiduité et je peux témoigner de son efficacité pour soulager des problèmes musculaires et de tendons (séquelles d'un accident de vélo il y a un an). La formule roll-on est très pratique à utiliser mais je recommande de masser activement la zone à traiter pour un meilleur résultat, plusieurs fois par jour si possible. À la longue, même si mes maux n’ont pas disparu, mon genou est devenu plus solide. Il me reste maintenant à traiter la hanche où je suis tombé en vélo ! En cas de crise, l’échantillon à vaporiser soulage rapidement et peut être utilisé préventivement avant d’entreprendre un effort physique. Je fus impressionné par l’analyse chimique détaillée que Stéfania fait des produits. Et surtout j’ai apprécié son sens de l'écoute et de la concertation pour que nous trouvions ensemble la meilleure recette du mélange. L'herboristerie est un art issu des profondeurs des âges, développé par la patience et la sagesse des moines du Moyen-âge qui cultivaient ces plantes méditerranéennes bénies des Dieux. Je suis heureux d’apprendre que près de chez nous une amoureuse des plantes perpétue cet art thérapeutique de façon traditionnelle pour notre plus grand bénéfice physique et mental. Grazie mille Stefania! - Emmanuel Dupont (Gatineau, QC)

BEFORE AFTER

I am evaluating the results of using bergamot essential oil in my patients. I have selected those who are troubled by a depressive mood and open to an alternative approach. For a week they had to write down their mood, anxiety, energy and sleep quality. Over the next week they used bergamot and continued to write. They used the nasal inhaler and I asked them to do it five times a day. The positive effect on anxiety and depression was mainly observed in women. I wouldn't generalize from these results and state gender differences - the sample was too small for that. But enough for me to recommend it to other patients.

In August of last year, I met Stefania Borrelli, an Ottawa-based aromatherapist from Italy who develops high-quality, all natural wellness products - no chemicals whatsoever. The packaging is minimal, elegant. The price point is on-point, too.
As part of my new wellness / beauty routine I am using a few products from Stefania’s line: a moisturizing face butter creme & an aromatic facial mist (I use the mist just before bedtime) scented with rose .
I am so impressed with the quality of Stefania’s products. The products have a real soothing quality to them that automatically puts me in a relaxed state of mind. And we can all use a bit more of that these days... Deborah K. - Ottawa

The Idrata body cream is wonderful. Stefania was able to specially blend the cream using high quality natural products due to my allergies and sensitive skin. It is fragrance-free, creamy and so easy to apply. I have been using the body cream for 7 months and it keeps my skin moist and soft the entire day. I also use it on my hands! Stefania is very knowledgeable and is able to adapt the creams to different skin conditions. I highly recommend her products. Michèle W. Ottawa

We just finished a great workshop on aromatherapy with women in recovery with the fabulous aromatherapist Stefania Borrelli who shares tips on the use of essential oils that have a positive effect on mental health. Great learnings and information exchange! Dr. Nicole Loreto, The Royal Mental Health Centre - January 13th , 2018

I use the balm you made for me for arthritis, bone, nerve and muscles pain on my whole hip, back area and my knees. It absorbs nicely and I apply it before bed as part of my evening routine. Also the body oil helps and if I am feeling really achy I use the roll on after showering and it does make it a little easier to move around.  Mostly I sleep better after using the oil so that helps make the next day better.

I have been using Giardino delle Rose (Rose) Face Cream for over a month now and I absolutely LOVE IT !!  Fragrance, texture and skin restorative properties are totally stellar.  My skin is typically on the sensitive side with some dryness and redness and I can honestly see an improvement in both tone and texture.  I am impressed that it is both lovely to use and also highly effective.  Keep up the great work !  Beth W., Ottawa

“I have tried numerous products in Stefania's  wellness line, including the  Dolce e Solare  face cream,  Respira balm and inhaler,
(relief of cold symptoms)  as well as the Ristora oil ( relief from arthritis and muscular pain), the Rigenera hairspray is amazing leaving my fine, colour treated hair, full of body and eliminating frizz. Stefania's expertise  and passion for aromatherapy and wellness  is exemplified not only in her excellent and varied  product line, which she customizes  as needed,  but in her caring approach . Looking forward to trying more!!!

Stefania’s knowledge and beautiful Italian charm make “The Healing Power of Aromatherapy” Workshop a real gem. I recommend her highly to share the wisdom of healing aromas with as many people as possible.

FIRST AID : STEFANIA’S HERBAL STYPTIC BLEND POWDER SPRINKLED ON A WOUND .
THE WOUND STOPPED BLEEDING AND HEALED AFTER ONE MINUTE AND HELPED DECREASE CHANCES OF INFECTION

I love to quickly rub on tiny amounts of SB body oil after the shower. Risana is perfect after the gym and Vitalita' for a change on special days. The skin feel just perfect and the delicate scent invigorates my whole being. The amounts needed are so small it is affordable. I feel greatly comforted that I do not need to worry about the ingredients in the oils and creams that I use on my face and my body because Stefania makes the blends fresh.  Also,  I have used the Foresta balm every day for two whole winters and every day in between... I am so happy , 2 winters I have not had cold! Wonderful." Love it and want to try all your different products.

“Stefania has truly helped my family! My three year old son suffers from seasonal eczema, we have tried every cream available with exception of steroid creams. Stefania gave me the balm and within two days the eczema was 90% gone! With every outbreak that he has, the cream cuts the healing time from weeks down to days, it is truly an amazing product! “
– Jessica M., Ottawa

 " Also this year in Casalvento (Castellina in Chianti) Stefania came to visit us. An experienced aromatherapist who always looks for novelties and functional products to put in her natural cosmetics. It is a welcome and stimulating visit. We confront  each other on current topics of production technique and new therapeutic items. She asks me to be present in the company, to reserve as much time as possible for her, she takes notes, takes pictures and memorizes. I try to give her everything I can, all I can.
She comes once a year  and if I have to be honest, I look forward to her visit, I  prepare it and take care of each detail because Stefania is really special and deserves to enter our production center from the main door and with the respect due for a culturally evolved and prepared person.
Meticulous and curious nothing escapes her and when she is particularly interested in a specific subject  she  repeats the questions: the first time I thought I was wrong, then I realized she wanted to understand the smallest details to the full. I know her well now, it's been years she has visited Tuscany on purpose and I love not to disappoint her. This year I let her know with important products advances that we have not yet released. We have in stock big news in the field of Hydrolats and Essential Oils. She has  already seen them ... I would say our world premiere !!!. It is true and she knows it. She also knows that she cannot talk about it for some more months, when the patent procedure is over.  As we do with serious people I trusted her and did well; do the same as well. Follow her news and you will find it interesting to find out what she already knows. A smile from Italy, Stefania !"

The inhaler really helps me for my migraine. Since I use it, I take less pills. Wow! Thank you, thank you, thank you! My parents were visiting us last weekend and my mother tried it and was surprised by the rapid change in her pain. So she wants it! Chantal M. – Ottawa

Stefania makes the most amazing customized face creams. I have been using her specially blended face cream for about 6 years now.
I love the light and warmth of the sun and have been able to enjoy time in the sun without the use of toxic sun screens – Stefania always uses oils that are natural sun screens when she makes my face cream as she knows I love my time in the sun. I have not burned a bit – even my forehead which I have burned quite badly a couple of times while on winter vacations further South. In fact I had quite a nice tan – only borrowing sunscreen for my forehead when spending the day at my friend’s pool.
 As I told the other students in my Yoga class I had to purchase face cream (that I had used previously) from a local Health Food store and save Stefania’s face cream for special occasions. This comment brought a chuckle from my fellow classmates! I was so glad to be able to return to daily use of Stefania’s face cream. I am 62 years old and have been told I look wonderful in spite of the time I spend in the sun!

I just wanted to tell you about my amazing experience with the pine blend “Magica Valgardena” including pino cembro. I find that lately, my headache has become more frontal, and I think it’s sometimes related to my sinuses. Also, I was “craving” something refreshing. So I put a dab of the oil under my nose, and a few minutes later, my left nostril became congested. So I blew my nose, and felt significantly better. I think some of the fluid in my sinuses had drained. I have had very pleasant experiences with other oils, but never such an immediate and direct effect! Also, after I blew my nose, I felt that the scent of the oil produced some sort of brief euphoria that I cannot even describe. So fascinating and almost as though I was momentarily elsewhere.
Kristina K – Ottawa, Ontario

I have recently tried the Valgardena body oil and I find it refreshing and intoxicating for the senses….I am now addicted to this beautiful body oil and want to spray it on more than once a day but trying to refrain so it will last me longer. A must to try!
Ginette G. Gatineau, Quebec

My daughter has sustained some nasty chemical burns on her hands after working with lime mortar and wondered if you might help me with it ...... One month later...... : The balm you made for my daughter is absolutely amazing.... she is almost totally recovered and is so so grateful. Thank you again for your wonderful assistance. Jane B. Ontario

I like natural healthy products in general. But I didn’t really think much of it compared to brand name products. But change happened. I don’t usually use perfume since most of them are too strong and suffocate me in the end. One day I tried her product for fun. As I used it, I realize how good it is. And I tried another perfume, and scent inhalers, and face cream, toner, etc etc… I’m very satisfied with her products and I even switched the face toner, face cream, eye cream to her products. Her products that I use sent unique, soft, tender and most importantly comfortable. I recommend them to my family and friends.

I’ve been using the sinus blend oil in a diffuser nightly for the last two months.  It has a pleasant aroma of oregano, I do notice an increase in my ability to breathe clearly throughout the day and at night. (Justin R. – NY, USA)

It was fascinating! On behalf of everyone, thank-you so much Stefania for your presentation with our women’s group in the Schizophrenia program. It was wonderful to enjoy a moment to treat and pamper ourselves with your wonderful products. Thank-you for sharing your time and knowledge with us! I will certainly share what you’ve taught us and invite others to connect with you..
Sandra J. – MSW, RSW – The Royal Mental Health Centre, Ottawa

Dear Stefania, I would like to thank you so very much for helping me with my long standing skin problems. I must admit that I didn’t expect you to be able to help me. I have been on psoriasis medications containing steroids and cortizone for at least 6 years. Now, thanks to you, I am off these medications and doing quite well. As you said, you didn’t say you would cure my psoriasis but I can assure you that your products have improved my condition tremendously. My scalp is no longer covered in large patches of psoriasis. I can actually wear black without constantly brushing the dry skin off my shoulders!!!! I am positive that in the not too distant future my scalp will be clear and with diligent care and use of your products I can maintain a beautiful scalp and very very healthy looking hair. The skin balm and bath oil you prepared for me have helped my dry patchy and itchy skin a great deal. Again I believe that with care and time my skin will be beautiful once again. Thank you for your loving care in preparing clean, pure, products for me Stephania, I feel better just knowing that your products are prepared without preservatives. Your products have done as much for me in one month than the 6 years of strong and potentially dangerous prescription medications have done.
Claire D. Kanata, Ontario

I have been using the your Tooth Powder as part of my dental hygiene for three years. Along with regular flossing and annual visits to my Dentist I have experienced excellent oral health. My teeth are clean and sparkly and I enjoy very good gum health ( I am over 60). As it is Ayurvedic and made with all natural ingredients I can be assured that there are no harmful chemicals being put in my mouth and into my body.
Thanks for another awesome product, Stefania.

 I use Neroli hand cream every evening and it is wonderful! Britt B. Ottawa

 I attended one of Stefania’s workshops in November, and have been using her products for a couple of months now. My two personal favorites are the Headache Relief inhaler and the Rigenera face cream. The first time I tried the inhaler, I was amazed at how much it reduced my migraine and made the symptoms more bearable. There is something very calming, refreshing and soothing about this blend, making it a welcome breath of fresh air even when you don’t have a headache!
The Rigenera Face Cream is a joy to apply, with its mixture of fluffy creaminess and little textured surprises…and it stays on your skin for hours, even the next morning. The scent is a mixture of something both familiar and intriguing, and it gave me a little mood-boosting pick-me-up when I tried it.
Stefania’s passion and energy are evident in the products she creates and will no doubt inspire new creations in the future! What I appreciate the most is that she can customize an existing product for you. So if you don’t like a particular scent, that doesn’t get in the way of you enjoying any of her amazing blends.

I smelled your essential oils at Saje Wisdom Salon Boutique in Almonte: they are absolutely beautiful! They are the most amazing oils I've ever smelled! I could tell that you put love into it. I smelled the different samples when I was there and I really liked the roll-on perfume oils especially Jasmine! Keep making them since there is a need of this type of product that elevates people’s vibration. The purpose of these oils is to really bring people closer to God. When I smelled your oils, I really felt there was something really special about your oils that I've never smelled in anybody else’s. I believe your oils are a gift because they are also for healing, there is a kind of Sacredness to your oils. When you take the oils and apply them on yourself, it is like honoring the body, this is what I feel your oils do.The oils are about honoring and healing the body, they are about lifting the vibration of the person without them even knowing it, but the intention is there. Without them realizing that it's working on them on the energetic level to lift their spirit higher and the world needs that right now, to be elevated, to be connected and that is your purpose through these oils.

I’ve had a recurring gum problem and my dentist had sent me to see a specialist who spoke about surgery. And then, a friend of mine mentioned Stefania’s products, namely the tooth powder and the gum massage oil. Within a few days, I could feel the difference – the inflammation was gone, no more root sensitivity. After a few weeks, I can see too that there is no tartar accumulating. What I love about the elixir is its soothing effect. Can’t wait to see what my dentist will say at my next visit.

Stefania brings incredible passion to her work and is extremely generous with her wealth of knowledge of essential oils, both scientific and esoteric. She has opened my eyes to something I didn’t know existed and can’t wait to learn- vibrational aromatherapy. To top it off, her products are diverse, and lovely. Her whipped shea butter is divine!”

I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to explain everything so clearly and in detail! I have always appreciated the time and effort that goes into your products, but now I really understand what makes a custom blend different and how to tell the difference.
Kristina K. – Ottawa

I’m really enjoying all your lovely products. The reed diffusers are great; they fill the rooms with a lovely exotic citrus scent. The face cream is exquisite and rich, perfect for our brutally dry winter climate…

I came to your presentation at the Royal Mental Health Centre. I learned so much and you revived and sparked my interest in helping the body in natural ways. Thank you for that. I just wanted to say one more time, that you gave life to your presentation—I couldn’t get enough of the positive energy that surrounds you because you are doing something that you clearly love. It’s so enlightening and refreshing. Few people have this effect. Anna N.  Ottawa

 I was at your Aromatherapy Session this afternoon and really enjoyed myself. Hearing how passionate you were about essential oils made me (further) question my own path in life and wonder why I’m not pursuing my passion – which is holistic health…I think you’re an angel, I really do! Thank you Stefania!

 The face cream just melts into my skin and a little goes a long way. I certainly have noticed a difference in my skin using your products. I do like the sunscreen oil – I like the smell – it seems to be a little more savory than the DNA oil which I also like. I like the variety of scents – I think it’s like food and wine – there are a lot of good ones so no need to limit yourself! I think at night after washing up my eyes don’t seem to be as tired looking as they have been. I am enjoying all the products. I massaged the hair oil drops into my scalp a few hours before shampooing my hair and then used the hair spray afterwards. I noticed my hair was softer and ‘behaved’ better afterwards.

“Sacred Love”perfume is so beautiful!! Also, I find that I want to spread the “Canto di Primavera” all over my bedroom- it’s so beautiful and fresh!! I’m also loving the Rasayana treatment (and actually I’m applying it to scars). Oh and I’ve used the meditation balm- when I first applied it I immediately felt this intense uplifting energy! And wow, the oils in the regenerative serum are amazing.”
Tania M. Ottawa, Ontario

I really like the products! I like the peppermint lip balm. It goes on smooth and leaves my lips soft. I am always applying lip balm, but find I do not need to apply this balm as often as others. As for the inhaler for sinus/headache, I usually get sinus headaches in the summer and often have to take something for it. I have been using the inhaler, and have only had to take something extra once so far. I like the damask rose also. The scent is not overbearing.

Thanks so much for the workshop at Rama Lotus and for the gifts!

“Thank you for the tooth and gum powder!I It has improved the condition of my gums . I had been having a pretty difficult time with my teeth and gums for some years when I started using Purifica tooth and gum powder. My dentist was surprised at how improved my gums were, compared to my last visit. I recommend this product to anyone who really cares about their health”.
James W. – Ottawa (Ontario)

Thank you for the workshop at Rama Lotus which I enjoyed. I knew nothing of essential oils before the workshop!
Lynn C. -Ottawa

The face serum is a great product! I already notice a difference in my skin. I also really like the bed linen spray, by the way. I’m realizing that the bottle size is really very big. I use it frequently and its still quite full. I love the idea of solid perfume – I had to travel without scent on my last vacation because you can’t carry liquids onto the airplane, and I don’t pack perfume in my checked baggage because I am afraid it will break. “Night in Marrakesh” Body Butter and perfume oil is the best scent I’ve ever smelled in my life. I can’t get my head around how much the aroma appeals to me!.”
Robin H. Nepean, Ontario

I have tried , the hair spray and the face cream and they are wonderful!
Sylvie H. – Ottawa

Thank you for the Arthritis Relief Balm that you developed for me. I use it twice a day and it has stabilized the arthritis inflammation on my finger joints. Continue with your great work! Your knowledge of natural products is of great personal interest. What you are doing is excellent!
Linda K.

The products that I have been using are wonderful! After only one day my skin has improved a lot, thanks to the stupendous Anti-aging serum . Stefania introduced me to her face oil product in November 2009 and I have found it an excellent product. My wrinkles have softened and my skin is much more hydrated. The anti-aging face oil has aided in educing marks and scars. I enthusiastically recommend this product!” .
Pamela C. Rockliffe, Ontario

The foot powder has helped a lot. The foot powder quickly addressed my concerns about treating any fungi I might have been exposed to being in my bare feet at Yoga studios.
Susan K. Ottawa

I am so thrilled with the products I have purchased from you. The facial tonic is so fragrant and refreshing and I really feel that it is doing something, unlike all the products I have used before. My skin feels clean and toned, without feeling dry. And the anti-aging serum is lovely to use. My skin is feeling more supple, more smooth, and beautifully soft, and I love knowing that all the products are free of harmful chemicals and that Stefania has created them specifically with my skin in mind. And it all smells so good! Thank you Stefania!
Laura D. Ottawa

I started using the products last night, the toner, the eye product and the face product ‘Rigenera’; this morning, I used the toner, face cream and eye product. So far, I like the products, and my skin feels soft.
Diane H. – Ottawa

The perfume oils are amazing – I really like the rose / jasmine. I know that oils are different and don’t often (if ever) cause people with scent sensitivities problems I’m afraid to wear it when I am out in case it makes someone uncomfortable – what is the world coming to? Anyway I do enjoy them so much and am starting to wear them even when I’m going out
Susan K., Ottawa

Thank you very much for the Workshop. It was wonderful to meet a teacher so enthusiastic, passionate and generous. You are an inspiration for me. I am very grateful for all the energy and time you have put in the workshop because it came through. Please keep me posted for the future workshops and keep up the good work

PLANTAR REFLEXOLOGY

Visiting Stefania for a reflexology treatment was a healing experience as well as a feast for the senses.  From the happy greeting at her door, the freshly brewed pot of tea, the relaxing music and her un mistaken gift for healing massage… I am very glad to have stumbled upon her website. I came to Stefania for treatment because I was experiencing major digestive issues, very low energy and an overall sense of unbalance.  After even one session together, I felt my body was able to relax more deeply and my digestive system breathed a sigh of relief.  After a few sessions together, the effects were more significant and wonderful.  I appreciated her attentiveness and she even taught me some personal techniques that I still do at home for myself.  Thank-you Stefania!” – Trish M.

I attended four sessions with Stefania and found them quite enjoyable. I was surprised at how sure-touched Stefania seemed to be and even more astonished that she seemed to be able to tell from week to week, just from touching my feet (and later my hands) what parts of my body had been injured in the past, when I had a headache or was congested, when I was stressed and when I was carrying that tension (neck, etc.).
She has convinced me that reflexology may be a good tool for me to help deal with the stress in my life. Stefania is wonderful company and she has a notably healthful and happy outlook to life. I would be happy to answer any question about my sessions with Stefania.
(Robin H., Nepean)

This was my first experience with reflexology and I enjoyed it very much. As a Dental Hygienist working long days in awkward positions, I hurt all over. Stefania provided a professional yet comfortable environment. All treatment was explained thoroughly which made me feel confident with this treatment. I don’t think I haven’t felt this good in a long time! (Anna L., Ottawa)

 I had the privilege to receive three treatments of reflexology from Mrs. Stefania Borrelli. I received a few reflexology treatments in the past, but I found that the treatments given by Mrs. Borrelli were much more beneficial and satisfactory than the previous ones. I attribute this to the restful and peaceful environment created by Mrs. Borrelli, her respectful approach, as well as her technical skills. I came out of each of these three sessions with a general feeling of well being.
I also experienced temporary relief of a few acute pains at the neck and at the lower back. I plan to continue to use Ms. Borrelli’s services in the future and will certainly recommend her services to friends and any other persons who could benefit from reflexology treatments. (Ginette S., Chelsea)

 Stefania gave me my first session of reflexology ever. It was very relaxing and although I do not have any serious health issues, she was able to identify sore spots in my hip just from feeling my feet! She has a very gentle and respectful manner and I would not hesitate to recommend her services.
(Terri. I., Nepean)

 I attended several Reflexology appointments with Stefania Borrelli. Although I had heard of Reflexology, I had never experienced it first-hand before. I found the sessions with Stefania to be very rejuvenating to my body and relaxing to my spirit. During the process, I felt a centering of my energy and a draining of negativity. It was amazing to feel the touch of one body part affecting the sensations on a totally different area.
Stefania put me at ease during the session and was extremely professional in her attitude and approach. I certainly plan to attend more sessions. I will also highly recommend Stephania Borrelli and Reflexology to both my friends and colleagues.
