Lavender Oil Aromatherapy

In aromatherapy, several types of oils are used, depending on exactly what effect you hope to achieve. Aromatherapy oils are usually divided into the following categories: essential oils, absolutes, floral waters (hydrosols), resins, carrier oils, and infused oils. Lavender oil aromatherapy falls under the essential oil category.

Lavender oil aromatherapy is a liquid that is generally distilled (most frequently by steam or water) from the delicate, purple blossoms of the lavender plant, or Lavendula officinalis. Lavender oil aromatherapy contains the true essence of the plant it was derived from and it is highly concentrated so that a few drops is all you need to bask in its therapeutic benefits.

Lavender oil aromatherapy is clear liquid with just a tinge of yellow. Contrary to its name, lavender oil aromatherapy is not oily at all. In fact, the consistency of lavender oil aromatherapy is one of the thinnest among essential oils.

Because of its very thin consistency, the initial aroma of lavender oil aromatherapy is only medium but once the scent starts to settle in, it can be the most relaxing scent there is. Lavender oil aromatherapy smells fresh and sweet with just a hint of floral and slightly fruity scent to it.

Like most essential oils, lavender oil aromatherapy is often used by diluting it with carrier oils, such as oils from sweet almond, apricot kernel, or grape seed. The blend is then applied to the skin for better absorption.

Lavender oil aromatherapy may also be applied through careful inhalation. As the oil molecules of the lavender oil aromatherapy enter the lungs, they get absorbed into the bloodstream, providing therapeutic benefits to soothe whatever ills or aches you are experiencing.

Some of the possible uses of lavender oil aromatherapy include acne, allergies, anxiety, asthma, and athlete’s foot. Lavender oil aromatherapy may also be used to treat bruises, burns, chicken pox, and colic. People with cuts, suffering from depression, dermatitis, dysmenorrhea, and earache may also benefit from the therapeutic effects of lavender oil aromatherapy. Other possible uses for lavender oil aromatherapy include flatulence, headache, hypertension, insect bites, insect repellant, itching, labor pains, migraine, oily skin, rheumatism, scabies, scars, sores, sprains, strains, stress, stretch marks, vertigo, and whooping cough.

Out of all the other essential oils, lavender oil aromatherapy combines well with clary sage, frankincense, and geranium. The only contra-indication to using lavender oil aromatherapy is that it should not be used during the early stages of pregnancy. Also, use lavender oil aromatherapy if your blood pressure is lower than normal.
