Frequently Asked Questions about Aromatherapy

What are essential oils?
Pure essential oils are components of  plant's immune system.  They are most often extracted by steam distillation.  The aromatic liquids that result contain between 500 and 2,000 compounds and vary from crop to crop depending on growing conditions.

How do aromas affect the body?
We all know that animals are very receptive to smell.  Smell is the most powerful and the most instinctual of all our senses.  Scientists say that our sense of smell is inborn, rather than acquired because new born infants, even before they have tasted food, screw up their faces at unpleasant food odours.  There are approximately 30 million smell (olfactory) receptors in each of our nostrils.  These receptors send messages to the brain's olfactory bulb where the smell is analyzed.  From here the message travels to the limbic system of the brain, the area of the brain that is responsible for arousal, motivation, emotions and memory.

What other ways do essential oils affect the body?
The skin is the largest organ of the body.  Its purpose is to protect the body from unwanted toxins.  With the ability to absorb and expel, it makes sense to use natural products.  Some essential oils are anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-inflammatory or anti-spasmodic.  Essential oils may help to repair tissue, rejuvenate the skin, improve circulation, balance hormones and break sown mucous in the respiratory system.

Do manufacturers and industry use pure essential oils?
Yes and no.  Essential oils are used extensively in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and perfume industry.  However, aromas or scents commonly used in commercial products and by industries are  termed Fragrances.  They are often artificially altered, extended and sometimes adulterated.  These practices are used to create  consistency and to extend the volume of an essential oil.

Why use pure essential oils rather than artificially stabilized fragrances?
Pure essential oils in their natural state are more suited to achieving specific effects - somewhat like herbology.  The key to aromatherapy is that our bodies respond to the differences amount the natural variances in order to avoid immunity.
