Aromatherapy encompasses a variety of treatments. It is more than essential oils; types of aromatherapy involve aromatherapy massage, clinical aromatherapy, aromatology, and cosmetic aromatherapy.
A beauty therapist, Marguerite Maury of Austria, is responsible for incorporating aromatherapy with massage. She researched the medicinal aspect of essential oils in France, but was not allowed to medically treat anyone. For this reason, the aromatherapy massage she brought to England was mainly used to relieve stress when combined with massage, and the two were irrevocable linked together. Many people automatically assume that aromatherapy treatments are always incorporated with massage, but they are two distinct treatments. While they do compliment each other, there are other aromatherapy treatments available.
Only educated professionals should conduct aromatherapy treatments. Clinical aromatherapy is closely aligned with aromatherapy massage because the essential oils may be applied to the skin. Also called medical aromatherapy, the oils can be infused into a lotion that is massaged into the skin. Clinical aromatherapy also includes baths, compresses and olfactory aromatherapy. Olfactory aromatherapy uses diffusers, candles or room spray to disperse essential oils in order to breathe them in.
Aromatology is mainly practiced in France and is extremely controversial. It requires a great deal of training and known as the practice of aromatic medicine. Aromatology is a treatment that does not include massage, although the oils are put on topically. Part of this aromatherapy treatment’s controversy is the fact that it can be used in the rectum or vagina.
Infusing essential oils into skin and hair care products is known as cosmetic aromatherapy. This type of aromatherapy should be approached with caution because many suppliers use fragrances rather than aromatic essential oils. Genuine essential oils provide many benefits to the skin. They help cleanse, tone and moisturize, but fragrances are not as helpful. Cosmetic aromatherapy can take place in a bath or shower; it also is a part of many facials. The supplies to practice aromatherapy at home are available at many retailers; however, it is important to research the products and consult a professional before beginning any type of aromatherapy treatment. Make sure that the essential oils are real, and that they are the correct oils for the treatment.
