Introduction to Aromatherapy
Overview
Aromatherapy uses essential oils from plants for healing. These concentrated extracts are taken from the roots, leaves, or blossoms. Each oil contains active ingredients which determine its healing properties such as relief of swelling, fighting fungal infections, or enhancing relaxation.
Ancient Chinese, Indians, Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans used essential oils in cosmetics, perfumes, and drugs.
In 1928, René-Maurice Gattefossé, a French chemist who treated WWI soldiers with essestial oil, founded the science of aromatherapy.
By the 1950s massage therapists, beauticians, nurses, physiotherapists, doctors, and other health care providers began using aromatherapy.
In France, more than 1,500 trained doctors use essential oils as an alternative to antibiotics.
