Acupuncturist Yolanda Vasquez Turns Family Legacy into Fito Essential Oils

If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like to blend love, heritage, and healing into one bottle, Fito Essential Oils might just be your answer. Created by Yolanda Vasquez, Licensed Acupuncturist, this collection of essential oil blends is more than just a wellness ritual—it’s a deeply personal story of family, resilience, and the enduring power of natural remedies.

The heart of Fito Essential Oils lies in Yolanda’s father, Adolfo—affectionately known as “Fito.” Growing up in the Dominican Republic, he carried the nickname “Adolfito,” a term of endearment that stayed with him through his journey to New York City at 21. Fito built a life of service, first as a chef at Brooklyn Hospital, feeding hundreds of patients daily, and later as a community leader back in the DR, creating jobs and opportunities for those in need.

To Yolanda, Fito wasn’t just her father—he was her hero. “He taught me dignity, respect, and what it means to serve others,” she says. When he was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis, Yolanda turned to her handcrafted essential oil blends to bring moments of calm and comfort. While they couldn’t cure his illness, the oils eased his breathing and uplifted his spirit. After his passing, she felt inspired to share their healing power with the world, fulfilling a dream her father had always encouraged.

Yolanda has dedicated her life to the art of healing. A licensed acupuncturist based in Manhattan, she specializes in traditional oriental medicine, blending physical, emotional, and spiritual care. Her practice incorporates treatments like cupping, infrared therapy, and essential oils to address a wide range of issues, from chronic pain and stress to women’s health concerns like PMS and menopause symptoms.

Yolanda’s approach to healing goes beyond treating symptoms—she focuses on addressing the root causes, which she believes are often tied to the spirit. Her philosophy of channeling energy away from negativity and nurturing inner healing serves as the cornerstone of her work—and the essence of Fito Essential Oils.

For many Latinas, natural remedies like essential oils have always been part of the cultural fabric. Whether it’s eucalyptus steaming in a hot bath or lavender to calm restless minds, these rituals are acts of care passed down through generations. Yolanda draws on this heritage to craft blends that honor tradition while meeting the demands of modern life.

Fito Essential Oils Blends

Each Fito blend is thoughtfully designed to address specific needs:

  • La Cura Blend: Soothe sore muscles and ease inflammation with Helichrysum, Eucalyptus, and Peppermint.
  • Illuminated Blend: Clear mental fog and find focus with Clary Sage and Roman Chamomile, perfect for PMS and stress relief.
  • Fito’s Heart Blend: A calming balm for the soul, featuring Neroli and Ylang Ylang to ease anxiety.
  • Breath of Love Blend: A celebration of sensuality, blending Jasmine and Rose to help you embrace your radiance.

What makes Fito Essential Oils unique is the intention behind every bottle. These blends aren’t just about self-care; they’re a way of carrying forward a legacy. “My dad always told me to share my oils with the world,” Yolanda explains. “He saw their potential to bring balance and healing, and now, so do I.”

At its core, Fito Essential Oils embodies the Dominican tradition of turning to nature for healing, reimagined for today’s world. It’s about connection—connection to heritage, to family, and to yourself.

When you use a Fito blend, you’re not just rolling on essential oils; you’re participating in a story—a story of love, resilience, and the power to heal from within. As Yolanda puts it, “When your light shines, the world is a brighter place.
