Aromatherapy is a discipline that uses the essences of plants and certain fruits to improve people’s well-being. One possibility is to incorporate it, for example, into the cabin of the beauty salon.
The direct influence of scents on moods and long-term memory, as well as their ability to incorporate active ingredients into the bloodstream, makes aromatherapy a perfect tool for working both body and mind. It allows us to have different objectives in the same session, such as carrying out an anti-cellulite process while relieving the client’s stress. Aromatherapy supports total and evolutionary customization of treatments.
Essential oils are highly concentrated, and except for some specific cases, they cannot come into direct contact with the skin, mucous membranes or be ingested. The result could range from irritation to intoxication. Essential oils are usually administered in drops diluted in a harmless but moisturizing oil, which is sold in much larger quantities and which are called vegetable or carrier oils (such as almond, olive, wheat germ or avocado).
The use of synergies of essential oils with carrier oils in aesthetic treatments allows us to achieve different results in the patient’s body, from psychosomatic relaxation, acquired on a day-to-day basis, to relieving vital anguish, anxiety or stress. The improvement of physical symptoms (skin problems, fatigue), at the same time directly provide a counterpart of mental well-being.
