| aromatherapy |
with its roots in herbal medicine, is the therapeutic use of essential oils from aromatic plants. Essential oils are applied topically to the skin, and in some cases, are used internally. These highly concentrated extracts from plants are up to a hundred times more powerful than the plant itself, with a biochemistry that makes them useful as antibiotic, antifungal, and antispasmodic agents. Essential oils can be either stimulating or sedating to the nervous system.
