Aromatherapy for Health: The Science Behind Essential Oils and Their Effects on Health
The use of essential oils in aromatherapy is grounded in the principles of neurophysiology and neurochemistry. When inhaled, the aromatic molecules from essential oils interact with the olfactory receptors in the nasal cavity, sending signals to the brain’s limbic system, which is responsible for emotions and memories. This interaction can lead to various physiological responses, such as reduced stress levels, improved mood, and enhanced cognitive function. Scientific studies have begun to substantiate these claims, demonstrating the efficacy of certain essential oils in alleviating symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress-related disorders, thus integrating aromatherapy with evidence-based practices in mental health care. This book gives out the secrets of aromatherapy not revealed elsewhere.
