Before I explain to you how essential oils work in aromatherapy, let me first explain to you what essential oils are and what is needed to derive the numerous benefits of essential oils through aromatherapy.
Essential oils are the natural oils found in plants, trees, shrubs, and flowers. Plants naturally create these oils to defend themselves against disease and insects. Essential oils are extracted from plants via a steam distillation process and the result is highly concentrated oil that not only smells good, but can be used for numerous medicinal purposes. Many people choose to apply essential oils topically (directly to the skin) to treat ailments, infections, and wounds. For example, emu oil has several pain relieving benefits and uses which include: relief from sore muscles, aching joints, pain or inflammation, carpal tunnel syndrome, gout, shin splints, bedsores, hemorrhoids, insect bites, earaches, eye irritation, and frost bite. However, the numerous cognitive benefits, for some, are a more compelling reason to begin using essential oils in aromatherapy.

What is aromatherapy? Aromatherapy is a widely used term to describe an alternative medicine and range of therapies that use a plant material, known as essential oils, and other aromatic plant compounds for the purpose of altering a person's mind, mood, and cognitive health. Lavender oil and rosemary oil are two noteworthy oils that are used quite often in aromatherapy. Lavender oil is used in aromatherapy to treat insomnia, provide pain relief, and in dementia related treatment. Rosemary Oil is used extensively in aromatherapy due to its versatility as a pleasant smelling aroma and when combined with other popular essential oil combinations. Lavender oil and rosemary oil blends well with one another and with other oils such a frankincense, cedar wood, basil, thyme, citronella, lemongrass, elemi, geranium, chamomile, peppermint, and cardamom. When the oil is inhaled, the aroma can boost mental energy and clear the respiratory tract.
