Misconceptions in Aromatherapy
December 27, 2006
The essential oils are used to heal the body, transform the spirit and move the understanding of the people beyond space and time. This is due to the power to smell. But there are certain misconceptions around this too.
The aromatic oils can
cross the blood brain barrier as it is semi permeable. The immune system does not fall apart because of massage. There are other reasons for such an occurring. A nebulizer is certainly not more effective and fast as it breaks down the essential oil into smaller components.
The various methods of using the essential oils are massage using 2.5%-5% essential oil, or dispensing small quantities of same in water while bathing and many more. A thing which is positive has some negativity too and the same applies to aromatherapy as the oils should be used properly to avoid risks and hazards.
The power of aromatherapy to heal and cure is immense and should not be overlooked as it does not have enough scientific bases. It is like one of the essential powers within the human beings since eternity which could be developed further. It could act as a tool to bring the mind, body and soul into unity and increase human bonds through the building of trust and confidence.
Got something to say?
