Aromatherapy combines
the soothing, healing touch of massage with the therapeutic properties of Essential
Oils.
Aromatherapy provides health and body care on a completely natural basis,
and the subtle qualities of the oils
lend themselves best to a gradual experience
Lavender with its sweet smell and relaxing aroma has been used throughout history
for its calming and soothing
abilities. Lavender has been used in England
throughout its history in perfumes and its folk remedies. The English
also
used lavender as a way to keep clothing from getting musty by making lavender
bags and placing them in their
drawers. It was used in many cultures in baths
to relieve stress and promote sleep. In Europe it was one of the herbs
dedicated
to the goddess of the underworld, Hecate: it was said to ward off evil spirits.
In today’s aromatherapy it is one of the most useful oils for restoring balance
to all systems of the body. It is
commonly suggested for hay fever, asthma
and flu symptoms. When lavender is blended with another herb called Sweet
marjoram it makes a great pain reliever for muscle sprains, rheumatism and painful
menstrual periods. Lavender
can be helpful in eliminating nausea, upset stomachaches
and vomiting.
Lavender is also good for the skin, especially when mixed with
bergamot it helps promote skill cell growth. Lavender
is also good for taking
the sting out of sunburns and some herbalists prescribe lavender paste to be applied
to minor
burns. There have been recent scientific tests performed that show
lavender's soothing effect on the central nervous
system.
Take caution
when using lavender if you have low blood sugar: it is also recommended that you
take it when you are
ready to sleep because it may cause drowsiness.
