Aromatherapy has roots in ancient medical systems, but it wasn’t named “aromatherapy” until the 1900s. When you inhale or rub essential oils into your skin, the chemicals components from the herbs get absorbed and eventually reach your pain response system. Exposing a specific scent to this network can alter your perception of pain.
