Aromatherapy

Although the term aromatherapy is a recent one having been first used by Réné-Maurice Gattefosse in 1928, the actual healing art of aromatherapy has been around for thousands of years. Going back at least as far as Emperor Kiwanti Ti in 4500 BC who wrote a book about the medical uses of Plants. ‘Modern’ Aromatherapy can be traced back to Réné-Maurice Gattefosse who in 1928 burnt his hand while conducting experiments in his Laboratory and not having water stuck his hand in a vat of Lavender oil that he had nearby. Surprisingly his hand then healed up without any scars and healed quickly. This resulted in more interest in the healing power of plants and the birth of modern aromatherapy.
