What is the origin of essential oils and aromatherapy?

Like many of the "new age" alternative healing methods, aromatherapy has its roots in ancient history. The ancient Greeks and Egyptians used essential oils in perfumery, massage and in aromatherapy, although that may not have been what they called it back then. The human body absorbs the benefit from essential oils in various ways, not just by inhaling, but also through massage. The constituents of the oils interact with various parts of the brain, stimulating, exciting, soothing, or calming, as they are designed, resulting in an overall healthier person.


What is the difference between an aromatherapy oil and essential oil?

Essential oils are actually not "oils" at all. They are volatile organic compounds made up of a variety of chemicals but because they contain no lipids, they are not technically considered oils--at least nutritionally. "Ordinary" vegetable oils, on the other hand, contain lipids and that's what makes them "oils". Some vegetable oils contain what scientists call essential fatty acids. These are fatty acids that the body needs but cannot make on its own. But they should not be confused with the botanical extracts known as essential oils. Essential oils are oils that use in aromatherapy. These oils have a therapeutic property and if use correctly can overcome some health problems.

What illness does aromatherapy help?

Aromatherapy can help treat simple ailments such as headache, insect bites, skin disorders, sunburn, cough, and cold symptoms. Aromatherapy can also treat arthritis, anorexia, depression, muscle pain, and stiffness, PMS, IBS, sinusitis, kidney, and liver problems as well. The benefits of aromatherapy lie in the essential oils used and the method of application for each oil. Many times, the best use of oils is a topical application such as massage, hot or cold compress, or soak. Pure Essential oils can also be used in skin care products, body spray or relaxing or sensual baths. In addition, essential oils can be absorbed through the nose, by inhalation of the vapors directly from the bottle, through an aromatherapy diffuser, room spray, dissipation by a light bulb ring, or humidifier.
