An essential oil is basically the life blood of the plant. It can be found in the glandular hairs, glands, veins or sacs of a plant, grass or tree. The 'oil' is extracted from flowers, trees, fruits, roots and leaves. It is the actual aroma which is extracted and it is this aroma which is used in aromatherapy to treat a number of ailments.
Essential oils are volatile; that is, they evaporate at, or above, room temperature. It is the factor of heat which releases the aroma and fragrances. True essential oils are non-oily, despite their name. They are never identical by their very nature; variations can be caused by temperature, soil conditions, the altitude grown at and the country grown in.
The chemical make-up of each individual essential oil is complex but they are nearly all comprised of some combination of alcohols, phenols, aldehydes, ketones, acids, esters, oxides, lactones, coumarins and furocoumarins. The result of this means that most essential oils are anti-inflammatory; anti-viral; anti-fungal; detoxifying; circulatory; anti-spasmodic; analgesic and decongestant. Essential oils generally should not be applied directly to the skin in their undiluted or neat form. Some can cause irritation, or provoke an allergic reaction. Instead, essential oils should be blended with a carrier / base oil before being applied.
