THE GARDEN OF AROMATHERAPY
| "All’s in this flower... Times, seasons, losses, all the fruits of woe, Beauty’s fragility, and death’s bare gain, Pluck’d in passing by, five minutes ago." - Glanvill |
The ancient art of aromatherapy has taken the world by storm, and
is finally reaching Indian shores. Aromatherapy can produce amazing results if used
correctly. However, extreme care has to be taken in case of pregnancy, high blood
pressure, and in some other cases. A list of precautions
has been provided in this website.
Aromatherapy has gained great ground on the international front, and is very popular in
America, the UK, Japan, Italy and Germany.
Aromatherapy oils are very expensive, especially in India. The reason for this is that
they are highly concentrated. For e.g., 1000 kgs of rose petals is required for extracting
300 ml of rose oil! In India, the common oils manufactured domestically include basil,
neem, eucalyptus, jasmine, lemon, and sandalwood. Many oils are imported.
