Quality aromatherapy oils are called essential oils. Aromatherapy oils are concentrated oils that the skin can absorb quickly, or the oils can be used in an aromatherapy diffuser to add scent to a room. Aromatherapy essential oils also come in small vials so that they easily fit in your purse, briefcase, or workout bag, allowing you to bring your aromatherapy treatment with you wherever you go.

Adding a little bit of heat to the oil aromatherapy helps to diffuse the oil throughout the air in a room. Heat can be added via candles or electric light bulbs lightly heating the oil held in a small dish above the heat. If you want to spread these heady scents throughout a larger space, you could choose an electric aromatherapy diffuser. Small diffusers will also fit into your car cigarette lighter, or can be worn like a necklace around your neck for personal aromatherapy. You can even find small diffusers that are glass jars with a reed inserted into the mouth of the bottle, where you simply put a little oil into the jar and the fragrance is diffused via the reed.

You can also use aromatherapy lotion after your next shower.
