How Using House Air Purifiers Make Aromatherapy More Effective


What pops out of your mind when you hear the word aromatherapy?  Do you think of fragrances from red rose petals?  Or maybe sweet-smelling oils from plant extracts and a rejuvenating body massage?  But have you considered that using a house air purifier can also do the trick and be more effective?

Aromatherapy is considered as a holistic healing of the body, mind and spirit with the use of scent or aroma. It promotes treatment from fungal infections, arthritis, obesity, dementia and cancer; to mention a few. Aromatherapy is also used to lessen stress or to uplift mood. High concentrates of plants extracts, known as essential oils, are taken from roots, seeds, leaves and plant blossoms.

Unknown to many, not all fragrances or perfumes are favorable and can qualify as aromatherapy; neither highly concentrated should be applied on skin. They must be diluted or combined with other essential oils. Different oils blended together, called synergy, are more powerful and offer an optimal effect. Essential oils must be natural, without containing any synthetic chemical or any artificial ingredient. Only genuine aromatherapy is capable to giving our body true healing and wellness. 

Even at present, researchers are still not certain on how aromatherapy works in our whole being. Some believe that the fragrances inhaled by the nose enter the part of our brain, the limb system, will now have control or have influence on our body, mind, moods and behavior. While others believe that there is a process of interaction that occurs once oils applied to the body mingle with the blood.

As shown in studies, there are so many health benefits from essential oils. As a result, aromatherapy is presently being used not only in spas but also in hospitals to treat different health conditions. Aromatherapy, according to Cancer Research UK, is a helpful complementary therapy for numerous types of illnesses as well as for patients with cancer. When the patients with cancer were undergoing aromatherapy treatment, they manifested a remarkable improvement in the kind of life they were living. Their stress levels reduced, they slept well and felt better because the feeling of being sick had decreased.

A study conducted by the National Institutes of Health showed that those people who participated to use aromatherapy experienced reduced stress levels during stressful situations. Indeed, aromatherapy is best used to enhance mood, contribute relaxation and relieve pains. A variety of relaxing and anxiety-reducing scents include lavender, vanilla, chamomile, frankincense and patchouli.  To reduce depression, a good choice of citrus aromas such as orange, lime and lemon are used because they have uplifting effects.  While chamomile, eucalyptus, ginger and lemon grass relieve muscle aches and headaches.

Aromatherapy is very versatile and can be used in several practical methods to acquire and enjoy the benefits of these healing oils aside from massage. Using a  home air purifier can do the trick. The ZenLiving Snowball 300ml Ultrasonic Essential Oil White Wellness Aromatherapy Diffuser/Humidifier/Nebulizer is highly recommended to do the job. It diffuses the mixture of water and the  essential oils into a fine spray without using heating mechanism. We are assured that the pure healing properties of the essential oils we inhale are intact. Furthermore, it produces cool mist that does not affect the humidity level of the room but rather produces significant heath impact on lungs and skin.


Essential oils are generally safe but still we must always be very careful to use them correctly.
