What is Aromatherapy and essential oils?
Aromatherapy is the art and science of using the rejuvenating therapeutic properties of essential oils to promote health, body, mind and emotions. Essential Oils are very volatile substances produced from botanical sources. They are compositions made of the basic organic elements (carbon, oxygen and hydrogen), forming alcohols, esters, ketones, oxides, phenols, and terrenes. They form very interesting and specific molecules that react against micro-organisms such as bacteria and viruses and can sometimes form a vitamin composition or a hormone-type chemical.
