Essential oils are used in aromatherapy techniques. Aromatherapy is an alternative medicinal practice that works to heal through smell. Below we will get down to the science behind essential oils and their benefits.

Why Do Essential Oils Work?

It all has to do with the connection between your sense of smell and your brain. Your olfactory system lies primarily in your nose. Your olfactory receptors are capable of detecting thousands of different aromatic compounds or scents.

When an aromatic compound hits your olfactory receptors, the signal is sent to both the primitive brain and the conscious brain. Have you ever experienced memories from a smell? This happens because your brain is stimulated to recall these memories via stimulation of the primitive brain.
During the healing process, if your brain is stimulated by smells that help to further induce healing, your body will heal faster. This also works for mental conditions such as depression. The idea behind this is that the smell will trigger a pathway in your brain that is related to healing, or peace, or whatever oil you are using is meant for.
