Aromatherapy is the practise of using essential oils as healing remedies for the body, mind, and emotions. Essential oils are plant extracts from leaves, bark, blossoms, bulbs, rind, seeds, wood, resin, roots, or bulbs.
The oils have chemotypes and remarkable therapeutic properties [sedative, balancing, uplifting, analgesic, antidepressant, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, immunostimulant, calming] once absorbed into the bloodstream either through the skin or inhalation, having both profound psychological and physiological effects. Chemically, they are more powerful when skillfully blended together rather than used singly.
