Aromatherapy is the application of natural oils extracted from flowers, bark, stems, leaves, roots or other parts of a plant to enhance psychological and physical well-being.

Others are used for their emotional value as they may enhance relaxation or make a room smell pleasant. The inhaled aroma from these “healing” oils is widely believed to stimulate brain function.
