Aromatherapy is the best smelling form of treatment out there! Using volatile oils from plants, also known as essential oils, aromatherapy uses scents to relax, rejuvenate, energize or even to heal a person.
Popular essential oils such as tea tree oil, eucalyptus and citrus offer anti-microbial effects and are believed to antibacterial and anti-fungal. Other scents are thought to influence the brain, and therefore can help people relax, or awaken. The oils can be found in candles and other oil mixtures to burn throughout the home for a lasting effect.
