aromatherapy, in alternative medicine, is the therapeutic use of essential oils extracted from plants or trees. Essential oils give a plant its fragrance and have been known in aromatherapy throughout history for their healing effects on body and mind. Essential oils are chemically complex — particular oil may contain between 50 and 500 different chemicals — and have a wide range of pharmaceutical properties. They can fight bacteria and viruses; dilate or constrict blood vessels; act on the adrenal glands, ovaries, or thyroid gland; affect digestion; and serve as sedatives or stimulants.

aromatherapy is considered particularly useful for skin problems, including wounds and burns; respiratory problems such as colds, coughs, and sinusitis; the pain of muscular aches, arthritis, rheumatism, headaches, and migraine; and stress-related conditions such as insomnia, anxiety, and depression. In some European hospitals, aromatheraphy is used to relieve pain and stress, essential oils are applied to wounds to combat infection, and vaporized essential oils are sprayed to prevent the spread of airborne infection. Some essential oils commonly used in aromatheraphy include lavender for headaches, stress, and insomnia, and as first aid for cuts, burns, and insect bites; eucalyptus for colds and coughs; and peppermint as a stimulant, and for nausea and travel sickness. Essential oils are usually administered through massage, baths, compresses, or inhalation. When used in massage and bathing, essential oils are absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream. When inhaled, the oil molecules stimulate scent receptors in the brain that, in turn, trigger a response in the part of the brain that influences heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, memory, stress levels, and hormone balance. Advocates believe that essential oils can have a marked effect on body and mind.
