Essential Oils

The Power of Plant Essences

Aromatherapy is the treatment of ailments with highly concentrated oils extracted from plants. These extracts, called essential oils or essences, contain the substances that give plants their perfume and, therefore, their main characteristic is odor.

Essential oils are produced from tiny glands present in the petals, stem, bark, and wood of many plants and trees. In nature, these glands release aromas progressively. When crushed or heated, they explode and release odors with much greater potency.

To extract pure essential oils, a steam distillation process is used. If the essence is dissolved in alcohol or another solvent, the essence is designated as absolute. These are less pure than oils but still retain interesting healing properties.

Essential oils have multiple uses, but they are most commonly used in skin anointing (massage). They can also be placed in a diffuser, bathwater, or in a compress. They are rarely eaten. They are certainly most efficacious when inhaled, as they provoke an immediate action in the brain.
