Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy means “treatment using scents” The essential oils are massaged into the skin, applied to the skin on pulse points, inhaled directly or diffused to scent an entire room. Aromatherapy can affect the mood, alleviate fatigue, reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. When inhaled, they work on the nervous system through stimulation of the olfactory nerves.

Essential oils are aromatic essences that are extracted from plants, flowers, fruits, trees, bark, grasses and seeds with distinctive therapeutic and physiological properties, which improve and prevent illness. Of the 150 essential oils, most have antiseptic properties; some are antiviral, anti-inflammatory, pain relieving, antidepressant and expectorant. Oils should be made from natural, pure, raw materials.
