Aromatherapy oils have been used for beneficial purposes for years and there are some records which detail use in ancient Egypt, India and China. Aromatherapy essential oils are obtained from leaves, flowers, bark, roots or peel and the oil is made by distilling with water or steam, by manual mechanical process, or by dry distillation. Afterwards the oil is then separated from the water. The oils are kept in dark glass bottles and can last for several years if kept out of natural or artificial light and heat, ideally they should be placed in a container and kept in a dark place until used. The oils are not greasy and they are able to soak fairly quickly into the skin and into the bloodstream.

Aromatherapy Oil Burners: These come in a variety of shapes, sizes and patterns and make wonderful gifts. A couple of drops of oil is placed into water in a dish at the top and the oil and water is then heated by way of a candle below. As the water warms, the gentle aroma can be detected.
