Aromatherapy is the use of aromatic plant oils, including essential oils, for psychological and physical wellbeing. Aromatherapists blend therapeutic essential oils especially for each person and suggest methods of use such as topical application, massage, inhalation or water immersion to stimulate the desired responses.
The different smells (aromas), and the chemical constituents of the oils, can produce different emotional and physiological reactions. Essential oils can be massaged into the skin, added to bath water or vaporised in an oil burner. Although aroma therapy has been practised for centuries in various cultures, the modern version was developed mainly in France.
Aromatherapy has not yet undergone as much scientific scrutiny as other complementary therapies, but itmay be effectivein helping with some complaints.
