What is Aromatherapy?
Aromatherapy, the practice of using essential oils for therapeutic purposes, has been around for centuries. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the science behind this ancient practice. At Aromatherapy Clinic, we create effective natural remedies and skincare products that combine the wisdom of aromatherapy with modern science.
How Does It Work?
The science of aromatherapy is complex and fascinating. Essential oils are composed of volatile compounds that interact with our bodies in several ways:
- Olfactory System: When we inhale essential oils, the scent molecules travel through the nasal passages to the olfactory bulb in the brain. This area is closely connected to the limbic system, which is responsible for emotions and memory.
- Skin Absorption: Essential oils can also be absorbed through the skin, where they interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system and other receptors.
- Physiological Effects: Once in the body, essential oils can influence various physiological processes, such as immune system regulation, heart rate, blood pressure, and cortisol levels.
