What is Aromatherapy?
As the name suggests, aromatherapy focuses on the significance of the human sense of smell and its therapeutic benefits for our minds, bodies and spirits. It stems from the ancient practice of utilizing natural plant sources such as flowers, leaves and roots to promote a plethora of wellness benefits. Over the years, distillation methods have given way to the discovery of essential oils, which are the heart of aromatherapy.
By using time-tested and approved methods of extraction and distillation, these oils are the true essence of the plant, featuring unique aromas as well as benefits depending on the plants used. PipingRock’s collection of essential oils are pure and natural, ensuring you’re getting the most therapeutic benefits in each drop.
