Aromatherapy and my experience!!

The claims of Aromatherapy are that it can heal or cure pain, illnesses or maybe even diseases. Dating back to 400 B.C used in places like China and India. Aromatherapy is the inhalation of plant oils, called essential oils, for improved physical, mental, and emotional well being. On November 6th, 2014 I attended a Wellness event called " Living An Aromatherapy Life." I actually thought that the event was boring and didn't show credibility that aromatherapy works. All we did was watch slides and smelled some essential oils,that she had in a shoe box. The speaker said that what she uses all the time instead of medicine. For example if she has a headache she "smells" peppermint oil. Although I did not try peppermint oil for a headache I did tell her I had a stuffed up nose. The speaker let me try an essential oil for that, she said that it would clear it up. I did not clear my stuffy nose but i was able to smell peppermint the whole time. Even though I didn't believe that aromatherapy works, however I did win a door prize! An essential oil used for cramping or back pain!
