What are Essential Oils?
An essential oil is a highly concentrated liquid that is generally distilled from a plant or herb and contains the true essence of the plant it was derived from. The chemical composition and aroma of essential oils can provide valuable psychological and physical therapeutic benefits. These benefits are usually achieved through methods including inhalation and application of the diluted oil to the skin.
A Pure Essential Oil has to be a 100% natural, obtained in a natural, non-synthetic way and therapeutic grade.

What is Aromatherapy?
Some people relate Aromatherapy to perfume without being aware of a wide range of healing properties of essential oils.
There is a lot more to it than just buying a candle to freshen up your bathroom, or hanging an artificially scented prop on the rear-view mirror of your car.
Aromatherapy is the practice of using volatile plant oils known as essential oils, for psychological, physical and spiritual well-being .

How Does Aromatherapy Work?
The inhalation of essential oils stimulates the part of the brain connected to smell - the olfactory system; a signal is sent to the limbic system of the brain that controls emotions and retrieves learned memories. This causes chemicals to be released which make the person feel relaxed, calm, or even stimulated.
Also, through breathing the oils in, particles of oil will go directly into your lungs and enter the blood that way. If the aromatherapy includes massage the effect is to further relax the person. But it doesn't stop at that. During a massage, essential oils get absorbed through the pores on the skin and enter the bloodstream. That way they have a direct pharmacological effect.
