Price Notes Aromatherapy in Brief: Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils from plants for their therapeutic properties. The oils are used for treating medical and non-medical conditions. Although it may appear to be a relatively new therapy, plant oils have been used for their health benefits for centuries. What is Aromatherapy? Aromatherapy is the systematic use of essential oils in holistic treatments to improve physical and emotional well-being. Essential oils, extracted from plants, posses distinctive therapeutic properties which can be used to improve health and prevent disease. Both their physiological and psychological effect combine to promote positive health. These natural plant oils are applied in a variety of ways including massage, baths and inhalations. They are readily absorbed into the skin and have gentle physiological effects. Aromatherapy is an especially effective treatment for stress-related problems and a variety of chronic conditions. The name dates from the 1920s but different cultures and civilizations, such as the Ancient Egyptians and the Roman Empire, have used plants and herbs for religious, medical and cosmetic purposes, as well as in rituals, embalming and preserving, for centuries. Articles and images taken from the book by Louise Tucker "An Introductory Guide to Aromatherapy" which is used as part of the curriculum.
