Aromatherapy For Stress Relief
Posted on April 23, 2008
The idea of aromatherapy for stress relief has been known for centuries.
The Chinese were probably the first to use plants to help create harmony and balance with their use of incense. Later the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans also expanded the use of plants and oils for medicinal purposes. The term was first coined in 1928 when a French chemist burned his arm and quickly plunged it into a container of lavender oil. His burn healed quickly and left no scar.
