Aromatherapy is a holistic healing treatment that uses natural plant extracts, known as essential oils, to promote health and well-being. These essential oils are derived from various parts of plants, such as flowers, leaves, stems, bark, roots, or other botanical elements. The concentrated essences of these plants carry distinct aromas and are believed to have therapeutic properties.

In aromatherapy, essential oils can be inhaled, applied to the skin through massage, or added to baths or diffusers to stimulate the senses and encourage various therapeutic effects. Different essential oils are thought to have different benefits. For example:

• Lavender oil is often used for its calming and relaxing properties, helpful for reducing stress and promoting sleep.

• Peppermint oil may aid in alleviating headaches and boosting energy and focus.

• Eucalyptus oil is known for its potential to ease respiratory issues and clear congestion.
