The popularity of complementary and alternative medicine has increased over the past few decades, and essential oils are a part of that. Essential oils can make a positive impact on your health and well-being as long as you use them in a safe way. For those new to this trend, these incredibly potent oils are great addition to your skin, hair, and healthcare collection, and can also be used for aromatherapy.
Aromatherapy has been used for centuries. When inhaled, the scent molecules in essential oils travel from the olfactory nerves directly to the brain and especially impact the amygdala, the emotional center of the brain. Essential oils can be absorbed by the skin.
Essential oils can alleviate conditions such as Insomnia, Anxiety, Depression, Nausea, Headache, Sinus, Insomnia, Indigestion and Low appetite.
