Aromatherapy is a modern name for the ancient knowledge of healing and improving health and beauty, using fragrant, natural ingredients. These are called essential oils.
Aromatherapy works in two ways. First, essential oils contain essences, which when inhaled are processed to the brain that controls emotions, skin disorders, immune deficiencies, stress etc. Second, essential oils penetrate the skin to get into the blood stream & the nervous system to heal.
A healthy, glowing complexion that is blemish free, soft & firm is the greatest possession a woman can have. Essential oils penetrate through the deepest layers of the skin to various organs, gland and tissues, making the skin healthy and look beautiful. Rose, Lavender, Saffron, Jasmine, Rosemary, Ashwagandha, Geranium are some of the best essential oils for facial care. They are mixed with almond oil, apricot oil, or any carrier oil, which suits the skin. Regular facial care with essential oils can prevent wrinkling and drying of the skin as only these oils can penetrate into the inner layers of the skin. They are a new life force for dry skin and erase wrinkles completely.
Essential oils are used for hair care as they influence the sebaceous glands and normalize their functions. The oils penetrate through the pores and hair follicles into the blood stream and stimulate metabolism and improve the blood circulation on the scalp, accelerating hair growth. Lavender and Rosemary are good for all types of hair. Geranium and Sandalwood with Almond oil works wonders on dry hair. Lemon and Basil are good for oily hair. |
