Aromatherapy is the practice of using essential oils for therapeutic benefit, an approach that has been utilized for centuries. Essential oils (EOs) are a complex amalgam containing a variety of naturally derived compounds that have been purported to improve one’s physical and physiological well-being. Although most often used topically, some EOs are marketed to be inhaled or ingested, uses that demand exceptionally high-quality oils. That said, there is no centralized U.S. regulatory agency responsible to certify EOs for quality and purity.
