Holistic
healing techniques have always been part of human existence. Ancient
civilizations such as the Egyptians, Romans, and Greeks prized the
health-giving properties and healing scents of aromatic plants.
Aromatherapy, refined over the
centuries, is the enhancement of one's body mind and spirit through
the use of "essential oils". Powerful, pure and fragrant,
these 100% pure oils are extracts from flowers, leaves, stems,
barks, berries or plant roots.
It is believed that the human body has
the ability to heal itself naturally. Pure plant oils have various
properties which can affect emotional states, pain, stress
levels, skin problems and spiritual happiness. Many of the oils have
antiseptic, antibacterial, anti inflammatory and antiviral
properties that are used in prescription medicines.
Aromatherapy massage can have a sedating
effect, yet you can feel uplifted, stimulated, and balanced afterwards. The oils
leave an extended effect and aid in a good night's sleep. |
