WHY AROMATHERAPY?

Aromatherapy literally means therapy through aroma or scent. In practice, it uses essential oils extracted only from plants and no other sources. Even though the word "aromatherapy" was new to the west (1928), aromatic substances had been used by the main early civilizations of the world (the Chinese, the Egyptians and the Indians) in their religious, medical and social functions.

The wall paintings of Lascaux caves in France, dating back to 18000 BC, tell us the use of plants in medicine. The interest was rekindled in the 20th Century by the French chemist, Gattafosse who used aromatherapy to treat the wounded soldiers during the first word war. Aromatherapy was continually used by doctors to fumigate hospital wards and sterilize equipments during the 2 world wars.

Before the development of synthetic drug industry, a lot of drugs were discovered from plants. Aspirin was originally derived form the willow tree, Salix. Quinine which is used to treat malaria was originally derived from the bark of Cinchona tree. Even the contraceptive pills was derived from the Mexican yam The famous antibiotic penicillin came from fungus, a type of plant.

  •  it is safe
  •  drug-free
  •  easy to use
  •  a natural way to care for our health
