Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy diffusers work a lot like a humidifier. A humidifier is a device that you add water to and the humidifier turns the water into steam and distributes that vaporized water to a designated area. People usually use humidifiers in cooler climates because the cold can sometimes cause the air to be very dry which can cause homes, and skin, to start cracking. Aromatherapy diffusers run on the same basic concept. You put in scented oil and the diffuser vaporizes that oil and distributes it in a designated area.

So aromatherapy essential oils are not necessarily any oils of any great importance, essential just means that the oils are derived from the essence of the plant. The other definition is the use of the word aroma in aromatherapy. Aromatherapy is more about the use of essential oils, which are categorized based on their aroma, than it is about the use of the actual smell or scent of the oil. The oil is identified by its smell but the smell of the oil is not always what is used in therapy.
