What is Aromatherapy?

Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils- extracted by various means from odoriferous botanical - that have therapeutic properties which can be beneficial to the specific bodily systems.

The essential oil is an organic compound and is the blood of the plant, and what protects and rejuvenates the plant itself is what has the same effect on the human body, as the botanical chemicals are bio-chemically available and assimilated by our bodily systems.

Aromatherapy works through the olfactory nerves which, via the limbic brain (old brain), regulate sensory monitor activities and effect instinctual and behavioural mechanisms. Smell can affect emotional behaviour as a result of these workings in the mind. Olfactory nerves effect memory, emotions and mood. Administered through inhalation, massage, topical ointments, baths and compresses, essential oils enter the blood stream and target the area of ailment.
