AROMATHERAPY as part of a holistic health approach in the field of health with a chemical-free perspective that respects nature for healthy individuals, societies and all living things with which we share the world, for a healthy sustainable life and the world...
In daily life We do not know much about the healing power of the scents and oils that we are in constant contact with and use. We are actually intertwined with aromatherapy in our daily lives without realizing it, with many scents and oils such as the perfumes we use, the scents in stores, the scents of our spices.
Aromatherapy, one of the important treatment tools of the holistic treatment approach, is actually a part of phytotherapy in many ways and in various ways. It has been used throughout human history in the areas of healing, well-being and beauty. Today, it has become a part of our treatments in almost all our patients, increasing our admiration for nature as we discover its increasing strengths within our holistic treatment plan.
Aromatherapy or Medical Aromatherapy; It can be used using essential oil extracts obtained from the leaves, roots and contents of plants using the distillation technique, or directly with carrier oils obtained from plants.
I would like to point out here that our country is very rich in terms of plant diversity. This richness stems from the fact that it is the intersection of three phyto-geographical regions, it is a bridge between the floras of Southern Europe and Southwest Asia, and it is the center of origin and differentiation of many genera and sections. This rich flora not only contains many medicinal and aromatic plants, but also acts as a gene center for many of them.
Aromatherapy, a very old medical method discovered by the founders of medical science and recorded in the literature, provides various physical and spiritual benefits depending on the essence of the oil or oil mixture used. Since some oils and overdoses can cause side effects and negatively affect our health, this technique should be used consciously by doctors trained in aromatherapy, if deemed appropriate.
With the strong and rapid effects of these natural oils, which are absorbed very quickly from the skin and reach the central nervous system through smell; It has a wide range of uses, from chronic diseases to infectious diseases, from mental diseases to cosmetics. The oils used in aromatherapy have anti-aging, tissue restorative, analgesic, anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, anxiolytic, tightening of tissues and vessels, sedative, antispasmodic, diuretic and many other medical effects, which can be counted alone or with special mixtures and ratios, scientific studies have shown. It is used in determined doses. The importance of Aromatherapy is increasing, with many studies being conducted in our country in this field, where there are many publications in the international medical literature.
In addition, these oils are used for digestive system disorders, skin diseases, menstrual pain and irregularities, stress-related problems, mood disorders, It can be used to treat a wide variety of symptoms and conditions, including circulatory problems, respiratory infections, and wounds.
Aroma therapy can also be used safely in many cases in children. Sunscreen is also used in children in many areas that it is used in adults, such as gas, constipation, diaper rash, skin problems, eczema, dermatitis, acne, herpes, allergies, attention deficit, sleep problems, cold, cough, and pest removal. Two very important points here are that the oil used is a chemically clean, organic oil, and that the treatment is planned and carried out by a doctor trained in this field.
In our clinic, we provide treatment in all the areas I have mentioned here and many more, sometimes alone and sometimes with other holistic treatments. In addition to treatments we use medicinal organic aromatherapy. We see every time that it increases the effectiveness of our results, especially by supporting the procedures we perform for skin problems and anti-aging. Again, in holistic treatments, by adding aromatherapy to our treatments in many areas, from metabolic diseases to digestive system problems, ulcers and bowel problems, allergic problems, psychiatric problems such as anxiety, depression and sleep disorders, we get faster results and the healing process is more comfortable.
Despite this We do not make enough use of the plant richness. To get you started, I will suggest a few oils and mixtures that we can use daily.
