Aromatherapy can have many beneficial effects on the body and mind. According to Johns Hopkins Medical Center, the practice of using essential oils for therapeutic benefit, when inhaled, the scent molecules in essential oils travel from the olfactory nerves directly to the brain and especially impact the amygdala, the emotional center of the brain.
We recommend doing a small patch test before fully applying any essential oils that you haven’t used before.
