It's official, I have a blog and I know how to use it.

Aromatherapy has been providing benefits to people for centuries. Using scent as a therapeutic tool fully engages the senses to provide results that can be energizing, calming, or help improve concentration and focus. Here are just some of the many benefits that aromatherapy offers.


Relaxation and Stress Relief

Specific scents have been shown to produce relaxing effects when used in aromatherapy. Stress can be alleviated when using aromas such as lavender, bergamot, peppermint and vetiver.

Improved Focus and Memory

The sense of smell is also connected with a capacity to improve focus and memory when certain scents are encountered. Aromatherapy can be useful while studying for a big exam or while working on a project where concentration is needed. Sage oil is commonly used for enhancing memory and recall.

Pain Relief and Headaches

Headaches can be burdensome, as can aches and pains, but particular oils can help deliver relief. Essential oils like calendula and eucalyptus can help with pain, and headaches can be eased by the scents of sandalwood and rosemary, especially when applied directly to the temples.

Aromatherapy can be a useful complement to traditional therapies. Specific scents can help with memory, focus, stress relief and headaches. Call Oriental Massage & Spa at 305-471-0808 to learn more about the positive effects of aromatherapy.
