Aromatherapy Inhalers are super powerful because
- the sense of smell (the olfactory system) is directly connected to the limbic area of the brain, which is also known as the emotional brain.
- When you smell essential oils they don't need to pass through all the layers of skin, so they very quickly enter your bloodstream.
- When you smell essential oils they quickly reach the upper respiratory system and help conditions such as sinusitis and head colds.
