Easy and Rejuvenating Aromatherapy Prescriptions for Beginners
The use of essential oils in massages or mixing them with bath water is as old as the Egyptian, Chinese and Indian civilizations. All oils and mixtures obtained from special parts of plants such as roots, resins, leaves or flowers are carefully crushed for extraction. Pure aromatic oils have great healing properties on mental and physical systems. Aromatherapy oils are used alone or mixed with different oils. Aromatic blends have effects such as calming, reducing pain, cell renewal, stimulating muscles, and assisting sleep.
Essential aromatherapy oils are mixed with carrier oils, leaving a soothing effect on the skin. While these mixtures create soothing effects on the nervous system, the carrier oils moisturize the lower skin and provide the skin with a soft and supple structure. By applying the recipes step by step you can easily make the massage or bath oil you need. If you mix the oils in the required ratio and intensity, you will achieve the healthiest result.
