aroma therapy Aroma therapy was first used and discovered by the Ancient Egyptians, 4500 years B.C. Aroma therapy is the generic term for cures and therapies extracted from essential vegetable oils. Translations taken from the ancient hieroglyphic scripts have revealed numerous formula for mixtures of essential oils and balsamic substances derived from oils, bark, herbs and spices, wines or even beers. These products were used on a daily basis, in medicine and healing, religious purposes. The Egyptians understood the antiseptic and antibiotic qualities of these essential oils for use in embalming. They used a number of extremely efficient recipes, thousands of years later we have discovered embalmed bodies which still have their intestines intact. Nowadays essential oils are used in a variety of sectors : health and beauty, well being, cookery and gastronomy, and in perfumery.
