Aromatherapy is to make a fragrant and fragrant drug into a proper dosage form and fragrance. Through internal or external use, the plant's aromatic substances are inhaled into the body to exert the physiological and psychological effects of the aromatic substances to achieve disease prevention, treatment and beautification. A therapy for living, clean the environment, and tempering temperament is a dazzling treasure in the treasure house of China's medicine.

This law has two meanings: First, the fragrant substances directly enter the human body or directly contact with the human body to play a health care role; Second, the aroma of the fragrant substances affects the psychological or physiological state of the human body to play a health care role.

The products used in aromatherapy are inseparable from the essential oils. The essential oils are aromatic substances extracted from the roots, stems, leaves, flowers and fruits of plants. The biggest characteristic is the fragrant smell, in addition to high concentration, high volatility, dilutable, etc. Characteristics. Combined with clinical experience and literature reports, we believe that the mechanism of action of aromatherapy is as follows:

1. Body surface absorption: The drug acts on the relevant organs through the pores of the skin, and then acts on the whole body by the meridians between the organs. For example, umbilical therapy, fragrant dressing, aromatherapy, etc., through the body surface meridians and acupoints, etc. It causes changes in human physiology and psychology, induces rapid and good physiological effects, and plays a role in balancing blood and preventing diseases.

2. Olfactory absorption: Most aromatic drugs with volatile oil are light and not thin, scattered without leaving, and slowly released for a long time. After contact with the olfactory cells in the human nasal cavity, the central nervous system exhibits different conduction pathways from other sensations, without the thalamus. Direct projection of the cerebral cortex, and then cause changes in all aspects of the human body, which is an important mechanism for the prevention and treatment of diseases by the scent method, the fragrant method, the fragrant pillow method and the fragrant method.

3. Transdermal absorption: Chinese medicine has a long history of transdermal absorption. Most of the transdermal absorption agents of traditional Chinese medicine that have been developed and applied are aromatic medicines, which are consistent with the aromatic aroma of Chinese medicine. Aromatherapy, fragrance method, incense bath method, fragrance The mechanism of action of the ironing method is related to the transdermal absorption mechanism of aromatic drugs.
