Aromatherapy is the art of treating the body, mind and spirit with aromatic botanical substances harvested from nature's pharmacy.  More specifically, it refers to the therapeutic practice of utilizing essential oils for healing, as well as the layman's use of essential oils for personal home use. It also refers to the use of essential oils for beauty and body care treatment.
Aromachology is the science, study and theory of this art, a term used to differentiate from its application by clinicians and aromatherapists.

Essential oils are the most concentrated form of botanical extractions from nature’s pharmacy, providing a powerful dose of active ingredients in a single drop of oil.  One hundred percent pure unadulterated essential oils are distinguished by a remarkable diversity of substances that act on the body’s cellular, physical level, as well as on the mental, emotional and spiritual levels of our beings.  

Essential oils act in complete biochemical harmony with the human body; they are non- toxic and non-invasive in terms of heat and electromagnetism; whether applied through the skin, by osmosis (in a bath) or by inhalation, (through a diffuser), they remain a powerful and diverse materia medica. 

Of the different 3000 essential oils available worldwide, only about 300 are in general use. Altogether their properties include: antiseptic, analgesic, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, antiinfectious, antiinflammatory, antineuralgic,  antirheumatic, antispasmodic, antivenomous, antidepressant, sedative, antitoxic, nervine, hypotensol, digestive, diuretic, expectorating, deodorizing, granulation-stimulating, circulatory-stimulating, and much more...

Each on its own has specific therapeutic properties and when combined, a powerful synergy with increased potency is created. Whether used alone or in a synergetic blend, essential oils greatly stimulate the body’s own natural healing mechanisms.

Aromas trigger psychological and physiological responses in the body. Molecules of essential oils pass through the skin's epidermis and are carried away by the capillary blood circulating in the dermis. They are then taken into the lymphatic and extra cellular fluids, at which point the therapeutic ingredients of the essential oils are broken down and used by various regions of the body. After the essential oils perform healing functions, they are then metabolized and eliminated along with the body’s other wastes.
