International Federation of Aromatherapists
(IFA UK)

The International Federation of Aromatherapists (IFA) is the first and foremost governing body for aromatherapy, established in 1985. As an educational charity, set up in the public interest, our purpose is the preservation of health by advancing the knowledge and practice of aromatherapy for the safety of the public.

Having worked with various Government Health committees worldwide, the IFA is actively involved with elevating academic standards and influencing policy in the Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) field. The IFA pioneered the use of clinical aromatherapy in the medical profession, with the first stationed Head Quarters at the Royal Masonic Hospital. To this day, the IFA continues to be the authoritative voice for the profession and carries on with the same strong sense of purpose, enthusiasm and commitment, which first inspired its creation.

The IFA is an accredited register of the Professional Standards Authority for Health and Social Care (PSA), a UK body accountable to Parliament. Referred to by the NHS and the UK Government National Careers Office and UCAS for its courses. The journal is registered with the British Library and our recently commissioned research trials, conducted by the Northumbria University, scientifically proved the use of essential oils with chronic stress. IFA is a stakeholder representative for the industry within the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) and the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG).
