Method 2 of 2: Understanding aromatherapy

   Note do not confuse aromatherapy oil with essential oils. Aromatherapy can be made from a small amount of essential oil mixed with a carrier oil. Aromatherapy can also be essential oil mixed with a synthetic oil. Synthetic aromatic compounds mixed with synthetic or natural conductive oils are also called aromatic oils.

   • The main use of aromatherapy is to fragrance the air.
   • Aromatherapy oils are also known as synthetic flavors.

   • Deciding on an essential oil or aromatherapy will depend on your goals. Each has its value.
   • Some essential oils can cause skin contact reactions. Aromatherapy is a solution that uses the aroma of essential oils by diluting the essential oil in a natural or synthetic conductive oil.

   • Essential oils are usually distilled in small local batches, so the concentrations also vary. This is a challenge for craftsmen who need to create uniform products. Some people choose to use aromatherapy when possible for a more consistent quality product.
