The power of aromatherapy.essential oils.
Evaporation and distillation have long been considered procedures for capturing the spirit of plants, the essence of the force of nature, of life.
Aromatherapy Therapy that uses essential oils to improve the physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual well-being of people, this therapy has been used for at least 6,000 years by ancient civilisations such as Egypt, China, India and others.
Aromatherapy is considered a holistic therapy, because in addition to its effects on the physical plane it acts on the energetic (mind) and spiritual plane of the BEING. But it also works very well on the physical level.
In this article I am going to talk directly about my three favourite essential oils that we use regularly in Ibisana, why and for what purpose. I am going to skip the scientific and technical part because it is very extensive and if you are interested we will soon do a course in Ibisana and you can also write to us and we will send you some links of content and the title of some books.
MIRRA oil
It is a resin extracted from trees from India. At Ibisana we use it a lot at the beginning of the LNT sessions, this essence connects us with our intuition, is an incredible stimulant of the frontal chakra and elevates our spiritual side. It has high anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and regenerative properties. It was the essence of the Egyptian pharaohs and the healing ointment of ancient warriors during their battles.
The magical ritual of the application of Myrrh was widespread among the royalty of ancient civilisations, whereby negative energies were cleansed.
Ylang Ylang
This oil is extracted from the flower of a tree from Madagascar, the Comoro Islands, South America and the Caribbean. It is very effective for stress, it reduces palpitations and anxious moods. Highly recommended for hormonal imbalance before and after childbirth or in periods of menopause. An ideal oil to use before starting a Cranial Sacral Therapy and Osteopathy session at Ibisana, for its effects on the nervous system. Psoriasis and eczema are pathologies that can be treated with Ylang Ylang, as in most cases the cause is stress.
Sandalwood essential oil
Sandalwood essential oil is obtained directly from the wood of the same tree, a tree native to India and considered sacred, used since ancient times in Egypt, India and Asia, worshipped and prized for its highly curative properties in respiratory, digestive and urinary system infections. It is used for depressive and anxiety states. It regenerates scars and stretch marks. It is widely used for fungus, especially on the nails.
Used in massage for its ability to help muscle relaxation, connection with tranquillity and well-being. Ideal before a fascia massage or any other type of natural therapy. Sandalwood oil is ideal for meditation, healing body and soul.
These are my three favourite essential oils that I use in Ibisana, they will help you for sure!
