Ancient Healing Oils

Description

Aromatherapy is the art and science of utilizing essential oils, which are extracted from aromatic plants, to enhance one's health and well-being. As a form of holistic medicine, it can be used in the active treatment of illness and dis-ease (acute or chronic) as well as for preventative purposes. Apart from their physical benefits, essential oils can also have subtle effects on the mind and emotions, and thus can aid in restoring emotional and psychological balance in the individual. Aromatherapy has been practiced in one form or another since the beginning of civilization. The ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans used fragrant oils for bathing, massage and medicinal purposes. The term aromatherapy itself was coined in 1928 by French chemist, Rene Maurice Gattefosse, to describe the use of essential oils for therapeutic and medicinal purposes. An essential oil is named for the plant from which it is derived. Each oil has a range of specific applications for alleviating aches and pains, healing injuries, aiding recovering from dis-ease, and relieving the discomfort of many acute and chronic health problems. Essential oils are typically inhaled and with caution applied to the skin or; some may be taken internally. We invite you to explore our site to learn more about aromatherapy and essential oils.
