Explore the Benefits of Aromatherapy and Essential Oils


3y grandmother was very fond of aromatherapy and had a good deal of knowledge on the subject. It was incredible to see her making use of aromatherapy and essential oils for different purposes. The best thing was that she always made use of homemade essential oils. Needless to say, there was no room for impurities in the oil because she extracted it at home and made the best use of it.

I still remember that the essential oils smelt superb, but I feel sorry because I never tried to learn the oil extraction process from my granny. The only thing I can recall from my childhood memories is that these oils were extracted from different parts of the plant.
