What is Aromatherapy?

Aromatherapy is an alternative medicine therapy that focuses on healing your body through your senses. It makes use of essential oils extracted from plants and mixed together and applied topically, diffused or inhaled. The health benefits of aromatherapy are beyond what you would imagine! Aromatherapy helps relieve anxiety and depression, boosts energy levels, speeds up the body’s healing process, cures headaches, boosts cognitive memory, induces sleep, strengthens your immune system, reduces any pain, improves digestion, and increases circulation.

The most important aspect of aromatherapy is synergy which essentially is the combination of oils used to create a healing effect. More on essential oil blends later! There are many ways you can benefit from aromatherapy, you can add a few drops of essential oils to your daily bath and beauty products or you could buy an incense diffuser and make your home an aromatic paradise.
