The Case for
Essential Oils Today
In recent years, essential oils have become
increasingly popular and commonplace; however,
the use of essential oils actually dates back to
ancient times. Essential oils were used by ancient
Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans, among others.
Not just a fad, or the latest
trend, essential oils are powerful
plant extracts that can be used to
promote well-being—just as they
did centuries ago.
While many regions of the world have moved
away from using natural products and turned
instead to synthetic solutions, essential oils are
just as useful today as they once were. The people
of these ancient civilizations had the right idea—
using potent, natural plant materials to provide
the body with cleansing, soothing, preserving, or
fortifying benefits.
