Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy

Stress is an emotion that has physical effects. When under a lot of stress, skin looks sallow, blood pressure rises, the brain works slower and fatigue is experienced. The ancient Romans may not have understood the scientific reasons, but they intuitively learned that medicinal bathing with herbs and natural fragrances had health benefits. From ancient Rome to present times, hot herbal baths have brought us aromatherapy.

Aromatherapy is a sensual experience. Appealing to the senses of sight, smell and touch, essential oil from herbs, fruits and flowers is called the "oil of life". Used in different ways, aromatherapy creates a sense of well-being, reducing anxiety and feelings of stress.

  • Candles - fill the air with aromas that soothe or excite
  • Bath oils in warm water coat the skin with therapeutic oils
  • Massage oils are used to warm the skin and relax the body
  • Lotions moisturize and smooth
  • Oil burners create atmosphere

    • Essential oils are extracted from plants. They come in any aroma you could possibly desire. Fragrances such as jasmine, gardenia, grapefruit, raspberry and ginger can fill any area you inhabit.

  • At home, fragrance greets anyone stepping over the threshold, issuing a welcome
  • In the office, stress is minimized by the soothing effects of your favorite aroma
  • At a ceremony, aromatherapy adds a special personalized touch that will not be forgotten by the guests
  • At the spa, a massage with a favored essential oil will erase all memory of the day’s stresses

    • Aromatherapy can uplift your mood. When feeling a bit weathered by the activities of the day, lighting an aromatherapy candle can uplift your mood. Or if you are feeling frisky, light a candle to send a message that it is time for romance. Ambiance will make these special moments unforgettable. Human beings are sensual creatures. We remember events with our senses. The smell of apple pie makes our mouths water. The aroma of magnolia reminds us of family summer fun. Aromatherapy utilizes these principles to create products that give us emotional relief. Aromatherapy has been around for thousands of years, because it does more than soothe. Aromatherapy has other benefits.

  • Lotions are used to ease skin conditions such as eczema or acne
  • Lotions are used to treat joint pain
  • Candle and oil burner create aromas to aid in sleep
  • Aromas enhance sensuality

    • For those concerned about exposure to chemicals, there are organic aromatherapy products. Organic candles and lotions use only plants grown without chemicals. The essential oils from these plants are undiluted quality oils with maximum therapeutic value. Because there are no preservatives in the oils, the oils you purchase are always fresh.

    There are also soy aromatherapy candles for sale. Often, the candles you buy will emit soot and burn too quickly. Soy candles burn cleaner and so the air you breathe is cleaner. Soy aromatherapy candles can maximize your aromatic experience.

    Aromatherapy products are available for everyone. Like the ancient peoples, treating yourself to aromatherapy can make a difference in your life. The beauty of the product is that it is simple and often inexpensive. We all wish we could afford long stays at the spa in the mountains. But for most of us that is not possible. Aromatherapy candles, lotions and bath oils bring the spa to you.
