All About
Aromatherapy |
|
|
Aromatherapy is the practical use of
volatile oils extracted from plant
parts, from the petals, leaves, roots,
fruits and from vegetables. Aromatherapy
is used to cure physical ailments and
psychological disturbances such as
tension and stress. Here the word aroma
means pleasant smell and therapy means
treatment. The essential oils are the
pure essence from the plant, which is
known to cure various ailments if used
correctly. Many get confused between
perfume oils, fragrance oils and
essential oils. Both perfume oils and
fragrance oils are same, however
essential oils are different. Perfume or
fragrance oils just provide fragrance
but they don’t carry any therapeutic
benefits like the essential oils. |
What are the benefits of ‘aroma’ from
the essential oils? When essential oils
are used in right amounts, they have
great therapeutic uses. For instance,
essential oil added in bath tub while
taking bath, the aroma helps us in
reducing stress and keeping our mind
calm. These essential oils are also
known to cure various diseases. When
inhaled, natural chemicals present in
the essential oils enter the lungs and
also provide physical benefit. Essential
oils also blend with other ordinary
oils. Oils such as coconut and olive oil
and can be mixed in correct quantity,
and this can be used for massage. Using
such oils will help in reducing pain in
particular area for the body. If
essential oils are used in large amounts
it may causes severe problems like head
aches, eye and skin irritations.

Essential oils also provide other
benefits as well. Some oils, for
instance, act as a natural insect
repellent. This is a cruelty-free option
to drive away insets. We use Citronella
candles, to keep mosquitoes away. Here
Citronella is an essential oil which is
the ingredient used in the candles that
provide this benefit. Essential oils are
also used as room refreshers; they are
basically added to the mixture of dried
flower petals and placed in glass
bowels. Essential oils are also mixed
while making candles, these candles when
burnt releases pleasant smell. Such
candles are called aroma candles, if
used while meditating and during yoga
this will provide more positive effects.
