Aromatherapy Diffusers |
|
So you've decided to give aromatherapy a try. Just how do you get
the scents from these wonderful essential oils diffused throughout
your home? My friend Nadine Artemis, co-founder of Osmosis, a shop
in Toronto that specializes in aromatherapy products, has a few
suggestions:
Plug-ins
Much like commercial scent diffusers available in supermarkets,
you place a few drops of your favourite essential oil on a tiny
pad, place it into the devise and plug it into the wall. You may
have to add a few more drops every several hours.
Car Plug-ins
Same principle as above, only this device plugs directly into your
car cigarette lighter. I suggest using a scent that's stimulating,
like Rosemary or Black Spruce.
Lamp Rings
For the home, place a few drops of oil into the ring and then place
the ring over a lamp's light bulb. Add a few drops every few hours.
Diffusers
Great gift ideas, diffusers come in all shapes and sizes. Fill the
reservoir with water and add a few drops of oil. Then light the
candle beneath and there you go, scent that diffuses throughout
your home.
