Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils from fragrant plants to help relieve health problems. The term "aromatherapy" was coined in the 1920's by a French perfumer named Rene Gattfosse. Extracted from various parts of a plant like blossoms, roots and leaves, most essential oils are volatile. They can be either inhaled through the nose or applied to the skin. Practical Aromatherapy will tell you more about this wonderful therapy.
Aromatic oils promote relaxation and generate a soothing feeling, heal minor cuts and insect bites, loosen mucus secretions, soothe muscle aches and pains, enhance memory, and kill organisms causing diseases and infections including bacteria, viruses and fungi. |

Always remember to dilute oil first with a carrier oil like almond or soyabean, adding one part to one and half parts per hundred.
