Ascents®: Clinical Aromatherapy Designed with Nurses in Mind
Recommended by Doctors, Used by Hospitals®
Ascents® products were developed for use in healthcare environments in order to deliver consistent doses of clinical-grade aromatherapy.
Ascents clinical aromatherapy inhalers and patches were designed with the needs of nurses in mind. Our inhalers allow frontline medical staff to offer patients a hands-off, non-pharmaceutical intervention to help alleviate the symptoms of medical conditions*, including:
- Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV)
- Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV)
- Pregnancy-Induced Emesis ("Morning Sickness")
- Anxiety
- Insomnia
- Pain
