Essential Oils
Aromatherapy dates back thousands of years to the ancient Egyptians, who crafted aromatic woods, herbs and spices to be used as incense. “Essential oil” is an umbrella term used to describe highly concentrated, steam-distilled or cold-pressed extracts of almost any part of a plant, including: seeds, flowers, fruit, leaves, stems and roots, that are said to improve a person’s well-being. Essential oils have psychological (affecting emotion), pharmacological (affecting chemistry), and physiological (affecting bodily function and process) benefits.
