Aromatherapy is a therapeutic method based on essential oils. These oils are extracted from plants by distillation, maceration, or pressing. We therefore obtain a concentrate of the benefits of the plant.
Aromatherapy is used to mitigate, relieve pain, soothe, heal. It also helps invigorate the body, increase the natural defenses. Finally, it also has the effect of tone.
This method is nice to use, it is natural, simple and effective.
Essential oils can be used in different forms:
- To ingest
- Inhaled
- Micro diffusion (electric diffuser, incense burner)
- In the bath
- In massage
- As a mouthwash, gargle
- A compress
- Patch in
Like many products, you should use essential oils in an intelligent way. We must respect the determinations and recommendations for use (such as dilution). Otherwise, there may be danger, as, for example, risk of burns. There very few side effects but far fewer than for drugs.
One of the benefits of essential oils is that it is not necessary to have so much in different bottles. A medicine cabinet containing emergency essential oils only. We can thus predict:
- Lavender: it calms, relaxes, she can sleep better and it heals insect bites and blows it away lice
- Lemon: it is antiseptic and it fights colds, he has a digestive function
- Extract from grapefruit seed: it is antibiotic, antifungal, antiparasitic and disinfectant
- Rosemary: it serves an invigorating and revitalizing
- Of chamomile: it is soothing and it calms the itch and it helps fight against insomnia and nausea cons
If you are interested in aromatherapy, but you dare not you start or you do not know where to start, buy a simple incense burner and a vial of essential oil of lavender will help you to test the benefits of essential oils. You will soon convinced of their effectiveness and you can then, knowingly, complete your collection of little bottles!
