Natural products, notably plants and herbs, have long been seen as mankind's medicine cabinet. For thousands of years healers and witchdoctors have used plant extracts to heal common ailments and even serious diseases. These potions have had mixed success and modern medicine largely discredits these approaches to healing. However many of the mainstream drugs that are produced in the pharmaceutical industry have their origins in the natural world. An alternative medical tradition that uses natural products to heal is aromatherapy. The basic definition of aromatherapy is the use of aromas to heal the mind or body. Many people are attracted to aromatherapy essential oil kits as a drug free, holistic approach to healing that they can use at home. This article will discuss types of aromatherapy essential oil kits and how they are used.

The term essential oils actually refers to a type of oil extraction performed on the product and molecular makeup from various plants. There are other ways to get aromatherapy oils, such as absolutes and infusions. However it is thought that aromatherapy essential oil kits are the best because they leave the least amount of trace elements from the original product that might cause irritation or allergic reactions from the skin.

Generally an aromatherapy essential oil kit can include a one or two oils or several different oils. The kit is geared towards an overall theme such that the oils complement each other is some healing synergy. So you won't find a kit that has massage oils and healing salves together. Having said this, aromatherapy essential oil kits are relatively inexpensive so you can get different kits that target themes of relaxation, muscle healing or depression and anxiety relief. In fact, you can get an aromatherapy kit for as little as $15. Depending on how often you use it, it may last up to a year or even longer.

There are also beginners kits, which are essentially sampler or tester kits. They will have a large variety of essential oils in small sampler bottles. You will use these quite quickly but will discover what works for you and be more specific with your next purchase. A beginner kit may have a diffuser or way to use the essential oils if they are not applied to the body.

Once you have more experience with aromatherapy you can start to customize your kit. This will cost more money but it will include the types of essential oils that you like or you know work for you. You can mix and match themes so that you have essential oils for skin care, shampoos, soap and air borne diffusers.

If you work hard and feel the pressures of stress and great way to relax at the end of the day is to set of an aromatherapy diffuser with your favorite relaxation essential oil. You can also give it to friends and family that may be having health problems.
