The Power of Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy has been recognized for hundreds, if not thousands of years, as having profound healing effects. Perhaps mankind’s first medicine, the holistic practice of using essential oils to cure or curb illness has been a popular practice for many who follow a more natural path. These oils can help stimulate the body, help the body relax and sleep better, and just overall help in de-stressing from a long day. Using essential oils in your steam shower can yield great health benefits to your body and mind. Below are a few popular oils that you might want to try in your steam sauna:

· Eucalyptus: Eucalyptus is known to help open air passageways and promote healthier respiratory function. Eucalyptus is also highly refreshing.
· Lavender: Sweet, floral, and overall great at soothing anxiety with its overall calming and restorative attributes.
· Vanilla: Not only a flavor, but the essence of vanilla has many benefits. Studies have shown that the smell of vanilla can help you calm down and mellow out.

At Steam Sauna Depot, we carry a large selection of essential oils that can be used with the SteamSpa Aromatherapy Oil Pump that we carry.
