What is Aromatherapy?

Aromatherapy is both an art and a science. It is a holistic healing treatment that uses essential oils to promote healthy skin and well-being.

By definition, aromatherapy is the use of aromatic molecules from essential oils to enhance wellness of body, mind, and spirit, and to improve both physical and emotional health.

In addition to their skin care benefits, essential oils’ magic lies in their olfactory allure: these delicious fragrances are the first impression when you open a bottle of essential oil elixirs.

Essential Oils stimulate the neuro-olfactory receptors in the nose, activating a cascade of sensorial effects (energizing, uplifting, relaxing, calming…) characterized by a profound sensation of well-being. Aromatherapy has been known to help a range of issues from decreasing stress and anxiety to improving quality of sleep and alleviating fatigue.

To optimize the benefits of all our essential oils, Darphin has created a unique detoxification method called the Kinesio Massage.

The secret application method: Using your index finger, apply four drops of essential oil elixir on cheeks, forehead and chin. Using your palms, glide towards ears and down over the neck’s lymph nodes. Then press on collarbone. Bend the forefinger and smooth the forehead in three sweeps. Then smooth over cheeks. Finally, glide down over the neck and lymph nodes once again. Then press on collarbone. Use fingertips to smooth over the contour of the face towards the neck. Press on collarbone again.

You might just be surprised by all the positive, uplifting emotions!

Did you know? Aromatherapy healers believe that when you choose an oil, it’s because the oil chooses you, because it’s the one that you really need. Take a deep breath in you’ll find you’re naturally drawn to the oil that’s right for you.
