Page 1 of 12 Introduction Essential oils are highly aromatic, concentrated liquids taken from plant flowers, stems, leaves, woods and resins. Aromatherapy is the gentle practice of using pure essential oils to promote the body's natural healing process. Essential oils also have subtle effects on the mind and emotions, providing feelings of relaxation, balance, and harmony. Aromatherapy is not merely a fancy word that marks fragrant products. The word "aromatherapy" is derived from two words: aroma, meaning fragrance or smell and therapy, meaning treatment.
