The term 'aromatherapy' refers to the use of Essential
Oils to facilitate the recipient's self-healing processes.
The word 'aromatherapy'
is derived from the two words "aroma",
which means fragrance, and "therapy", which means treatment.
This word is therefore a summary of the facts that the essential oils
used in aromatherapy are fragrant, thus detected by our sense of smell,
and also that when selected and applied appropriately they may have therapeutic
effects. The above glossary entry is just a short summary about aromatherapy.
Further
information about Aromatherapy (together
with photographs) and the History
of Aromatherapy is included on the relevant page of the Therapies
Section of this website.
