0 Comments

 
Since ancient times, plant essences have been used for healing thru various means. The benefits of these essences have been experienced thru incense, perfumes, aromatic waters and embalming ointments.

Though Aromatherapy has been mentioned in several ancient healing techniques such as Ayurveda, the term “Aromatherapy” was coined in much recent times by the French Chemist, Rene Gattefosse. Aroma therapeutic healing is considered a very gentle and non-intrusive means of healing and is supposed to be suitable for people from all age-groups.
​
One of Aromatherapy’s most known and noted benefits is in the use of essential oils to relax and rejuvenate people i.e. in reducing stress and relieving stress related conditions such as anxiety, hypertension, insomnia and depression.

Aromatherapy involves utilizing mainly essential oils though at times one may also use herbal distillates and essential waters. An essential oil is any concentrated, hydrophobic liquid containing volatile aroma compounds from plants, which are called aromatic herbs or aromatic plants. They are also known as volatile or ethereal oils, or simply as the "oil of" the plant material from which they were extracted, such as oil of clove. Essential oils are extremely strong and potent and should never be used on the body by itself! It is best administered for massage by mixing with carrier oils.

Common carrier oils are Apricot Kernel, Avocado, Grape Seed, Hemp Seed, Jojoba, Sweet Almond and Grape Seed Oil.
