As we understand the essential oil obtained by odorant steam distillation and cold pressing of the plant. Aromatherapy is based on the principle that scents and smells can stimulate and bring to mind the feelings and memories that were buried deep in the memory. Moreover, considering that odors can positively influence the mindset and thus contribute to stimulate the patient's healing potential. Following the method of use there are four different forms of aromatherapy: the phyto-aromatherapy, aromatherapy care, psycho-aromatherapy and aroma massage. Aromatherapy can be practiced self-treatment.
