The Science Behind Aromatherapy

The Science Behind Aromatherapy

By Michelle Finn

In the past month, we’ve introduced two exciting additions to our lineup: the Calm Energy Aromatherapy Mist and our Lavender Essential Oil. You might be wondering, why is The Elderberry Co. exploring essential oils? The answer is simple—essential oils offer incredible benefits, perfectly aligning with our mission: Healthy Families, Happy Families.

So, how can essential oils support your well-being? Here’s the science: Essential oils have been used for centuries to aid physical and emotional healing. Through processes like steam distillation, the concentrated benefits of plants are captured in these oils. Take lavender, for example—well-known for its calming and stress-relieving properties.

But what makes essential oils truly effective? When you inhale an essential oil like lavender, its aromatic molecules reach your brain within just one second, specifically targeting the limbic system, which governs emotions. This direct connection is what makes essential oils unique in promoting wellness. Their fast-acting nature delivers nearly instant relief, making them ideal for emotional support. And the benefits don’t stop there—they’re also powerful when applied topically!

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed or simply need a moment of calm, a soothing essential oil like lavender can help. Inhaling its relaxing aroma offers immediate comfort, helping you reset and recharge. Essential oils provide a natural, easy way to enhance your well-being whenever you need it most.

At The Elderberry Co., we believe in providing simple, natural solutions that enhance your health and happiness. Our new essential oil products are crafted with the same care and commitment we bring to all of our offerings, designed to support you and your family’s well-being. Whether you’re looking to calm your mind, lift your mood, or soothe your body, essential oils are a gentle, effective way to achieve balance. We’re excited to share this journey with you as we continue our mission of building Healthy Families, Happy Families—naturally.
