Aromatherapy
Essential Oils
What is aromatherapy?
“The power of aroma is evident through its
capacity to affect the emotions and the
body. For example, the scent of a rose can
stimulate feelings of happiness and euphoria.
The fragrances of lavender and chamomile
are helpful in combating insomnia.
Aromatherapy is an approach that obtains
aromatic, essential oils from herbs and flow-
ers and assigns them as therapeutic treat-
ments.
“Aromatherapy dates back thousands of
years. The term aromatherapy was first estab-
lished when French chemist Rene Maurice
Gattefosse published his work,
Aromatherapie
, in 1937. (Years earlier,
Gattefosse had experimented with the use of
essential oils to treat wounds. He personally
experienced the healing properties of laven-
der when he applied it to burns on his own
hands.) In the 1950s, Marguerite Maury, a
French woman whose husband was a home-
opathic doctor, researched essential oils for
medical and cosmetic applications.
Aromatherapy was eventually brought to
Great Britain through the work of massage
therapists and estheticians. Since then, its
practice has grown extensively.”

Complementary Medicine. Avery. 1998)

How does aromatherapy work?
Your sense of smell is connected to the part
of your brain that controls the autonomic
(involuntary) nervous system. As a result, you
respond immediately and involuntarily to
scent. The powerful perfume of the essential
oils stimulates the release of neurotransmit-
ters in your brain. These brain chemicals can
have effects that are calming, sedating, pain-
reducing, stimulating, or euphoriant. In
addition, when essential oils are applied to
the skin in specially prepared lotions, they
can serve as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory,
and astringency agents. Each essential oil is
known for its aroma and characteristic thera-
peutic effects.
The essential oils used for aroma therapy
are derived through a steam-distillation
process. Plant materials are heated in water,
resulting in the release of oils in the form of
vapors. These vapors, as well as the steam
from the water, then move through a cooling
tube in which they are converted back to liq-
uid form. From this liquid, the concentrated
essential oil is gathered. The oils pro-
duce therapeutic effects on the
mind, emotions, and respiration
through several methods of inhala-
tion: placing drops of oil on a
handkerchief or in steaming hot
water; using a diffuser-a device
that, when heated, spreads
the vapors throughout a
room; and soaking in therapeutic baths,
which utilizes both inhalation and absorp-
tion.
When diluted in prepared lotions, oils can
be applied directly to the skin. The aro-
matherapist generally uses such lotions dur-
ing massage treatments. This method allows
you to benefit not only from the aroma, but
also from the absorption of the oils into the
skin. Practitioners believe that these oils are
carried throughout the body via the blood-
stream, and can strengthen and heal muscle
tissue, joints, and organs.
The Essential Oils
What do you look for when buying essen-
tial oils? Willner Chemists now has a line of
essential oil products in the Phyto-Tech™
line. These oils are 100% Pure, Sustainably
Harvested, Quality Tested, prepared in a
GMP Certified Facility, Kosher Certified and,
reasonably priced.
Quality of Essential Oils
Our 100% pure essential oils are highly
concentrated botanical oils and are never
adulterated. All of our oils are validated by
GC-MS (Gas chromatography-mass spectrom-
etry) and FTIR (Fourier transform infrared
spectroscopy) to positively identify the oil.
Most important, each oil gets inspected
organoleptically. The primary organoleptic
indicator of quality for essential oils is olfac-
tory evaluation or smell by someone trained
in aromatherapy. The oils are also physically
inspected for color, clarity, and viscosity. We
source our essential oils by quality, not price,
to ensure the best grade for aroma therapeu-
tic use.
