Aromatherapy has been practiced in one form or another since the beginning of civilization. It is the art and science of using oils, extracted from aromatic plants to enhance health and beauty. Apart from the physical benefits, essential oils can have subtle effects on the mind and emotions, stimulating positive results. The essential oils taken from plants and used in Aroma therapy have been described as their “life force” – they are essential to the plants’ biological processes, as well as being the substance which gives them their scent.
When one inhales essential oils, they enter into your respiratory system. In your lungs, molecules of essential oils attach themselves to oxygen molecules and are carried into your blood stream and circulated to every cell in your body including the brain. Within the cells, essential oils can activate the body’s ability to heal itself and to improve health.
