ITALIAN-STYLE BENEFITS WITH AROMATHERAPY

17/07/2022

Aromatherapy is a discipline that relies on the use of essential oils to treat and alleviate certain health issues and prevent the onset of disease. From skin issues to bronchial problems, as well as headaches, stretch marks and coughs-essential oils can help cure so many things indeed, of course. Such is the power of aromatherapy

Italy is not only "spaghetti and mandolino," it does not only live thanks to its rich history, but with its natural products and thanks to the spirit of women entrepreneurs, it knows how to bring about, or revive, the personal well-being that is essential to cope with everyday life. Therefore, by combining Italy‘s scenic beauty (from Portofino to Ischia, from the Dolomites to the islands) with the sound of local music (from the waves of the sea, to the wind in your hair, to the notes of a piano or saxophone) we will well understand the motto "life is life." Sometimes, however, work reasons, geographical distances or economic problems do not always allow us a nice stay in exciting tourist locations... but our physical and mental health requires support. Hence the help provided by aromatherapy obtainable through the use of natural Italian products

Among the greatest benefits that aromatherapy can provide, we have the sustainability of the product used. In fact, essential oils are nothing more than extracts of plants, barks, roots, berries, peels and flowers obtained through natural methodologies. Each of these substances has antiseptic, anti- inflammatory, antibiotic, antiemetic and antifungal characteristics.There are many products that can be used and even more blends that can help. We present a few of them in "Italian style"

We know well the happiness that can give a woman a bouquet of roses. Besides its symbolic value, it has the characteristic of enthusing and igniting passion. But if a woman had to choose between a beautiful bouquet of roses or having available some rosehip seed oil .... leaving aside the predictable choice of having both ... one could opt for rosehip seed oil. In addition to being able to stimulate the senses this oil (obtained from the seeds of the rose plant) nourishes the skin, is an anti-aging agent rich in vitamin A and fatty acids useful in turning back the clock of time, softening the skin and softening early signs of aging

Everyone loves to sip a good Italian coffee (even better if from Naples) or savor a cappuccino while having breakfast but, unfortunately, they are not able to give the full charge. Few people know it but coffee also does wonders for our skin. For dark circles, consider adding a cream containing coffee seed oils with vasodilating action to your skincare routine. You will soon notice that you will use concealer much less 

If there is one expert on the benefits of honey, it is Huda Kattan. She has gone so far as to get this moisturizing product into many of her skincare products. The Honey Whip Peptide, a moisturizer from Wishful, for example, is a face cream that plumps, smooths and softens thanks to the natural antioxidant properties of honey

The world of aromas is rich in variety and nuance. We wanted to select for you some essences that most contribute to soothing rest and promoting restorative sleep.

ORANGE - Orange essential oil acts as a mild hypnotic and is a natural calming agent. It therefore acts against insomnia and stress by promoting good mood. It also helps blood circulation, acts as an antibacterial and strengthens the immune system.

CHAMOMILE - Known to have a calming effect, chamomile also has soothing, antibacterial, disinfectant and anti-inflammatory properties. For those who tend to somatize stress with spasms and contractures, chamomile is very effective as a muscle relaxant. Its aroma thus helps combat insomnia and anxiety, agitation and headaches.

LAVENDER - An excellent calming agent, lavender exerts a sedative and balancing action. It relieves muscle aches and has antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties. It is also a good remedy for clearing the nasal passages in cases of colds, coughs and sinusitis.

MINT- Has a refreshing and rejuvenating effect on the mind, relieving feelings of oppression derived from stress. It promotes circulation and improves performance.

SANDALWOOD - It is indicated to soothe and calm aggression. It fights anxiety and stress, stimulates circulation in the lower limbs and strengthens the body.

Many Italian women entrepreneurs are dedicated to the production of these natural products. Others are about to start their own business thanks, in part, to the financial support made available by the European Community and the PNRR offered by the Italian government. To them our thanks and a wish to help keep the Italian flag flying high.
