About Martina Steege

I was always drawn to essential oils and their therapeutic properties, so one Christmas season I decided to make aromatherapy sugar scrubs for my husband’s clients, which turned out to be a big hit. Thus “MartiScrub” was born. I shifted gears and started researching and educating myself on aromatherapy as well as homeopathy, and found that most of our household products (from cleaners to beauty care) had somewhat toxic ingredients and were certainly contributing to some health concerns. I then opened an Etsy shop in October 2015 and added more and more aromatherapy products that I had been formulating and testing on friends and family. Word got around that my creations were working well for people and animals alike (e.g. ailments such as skin rashes, acne, canine skin issues, baby’s sleeping problems, hormonal imbalances etc.). I wanted to learn more, specifically about safety, which led me to a certification program through “Aromahead Institute” that deepened my knowledge and gave me even more confidence.

My definition of an aromatherapist is simple: Someone who is able to blend plant-based science with knowledge, experience and intuition, as she/he creates products that positively impact your senses! That’s what MartiScrub is all about!
