Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils from the flowers, roots, leaves, seeds, bark or peel of certain plants to help boost your mood or make you feel better.
Used thoughtfully and carefully, aromatherapy can help children, as well as adults, feel calmer and sleep better.
It is also shown to reduce nausea, discomfort and pain.
We’re all familiar with the pleasure that comes from an enjoyable smell, whether it’s the fragrance of a flower or a food, or a scent we associate with good memories.
There are various theories as to how exactly aromatherapy works, but some believe that by activating specific smell receptors in the nose, aromatherapy causes the brain to send messages to areas of the nervous system that affect mood and other symptoms.
