AROMATHERAPY TREATMENTS ARE AVAILABLE AT MANCHESTER THERAPY CENTRE
The word aromatherapy was invented by Henri Gattefosse in France in
1928 to describe the science of using the oils of aromatic plants to
heal the body and mind. One time when he burnt his hand he thrust it
into a vat of Lavender oil and found that his hand healed much more
quickly than expected, and with hardly any scarring.
Aromatherapy oils have been used for healing thousands of years;
long before Gattefosse's discovery. There are records of their use
as early as 5000 BC. Chinese and Ayurvedic Medicine used
aromatherapy oils around 2000 BC. Aromatherapy oils are even
mentioned in passages of the Bible that speak of their healing
properties.
Gattefosse started the science of aromatherapy and aromatic oils by
documenting the components of essential oils and their healing
abilities.
