Aromatherapy uses concentrated essential oils extracted from various plant roots, seeds, leaves, and flowers.
The strong aroma stimulates the receptors in the nose, which send signals to the part of the brain that controls your emotions.
Experts believe that scents can stimulate the activity of certain brain cells in a way that is similar to the way some medications work.
During massage, essential oils are absorbed by the skin and at the same time, manipulation serves as physical therapy.
Lavender, rose, and frankincense are used for pregnant women to reduce anxiety and reduce pain during delivery.
Estrogen-like compounds found in aniseed, fennel, and sage may help
relieve symptoms of PMS and menopause.
