Aromatherapy Uses Top Journals

Ancient history has provided anecdotal evidence of the therapeutic use of essential oils but, in the last few decades, increasing scientific research has evidenced and substantiated their health benefits. The objective evidence base which supports aromatherapy comprises clinical trials as well as case histories, clinical audits and also subjective patient reported outcome data. The amount of such research, and the media profile of some studies, has led to a high level of public confidence in the efficacy of aromatherapy, especially in the areas of mental health, back pain, cancer and palliative care. As a result, a large number of hospices, cancer wards, palliative care centres and mental health charities now provide access to aromatherapy.
