Essential oils have been known for centuries to help people with their common health problems and beauty needs. They are a reliable and natural way to bring a vibrant glow of health and beauty to our bodies and help us to deal with our problems. They are even known to help problems like insomnia, which is mostly a psychological issue.

To make essential oils, oil need to be extracted from plants. This can be done through expression and distillation. Also referred as cold pressing, expression is a method used to extract oil from citrus fruits like lime, orange, tangerine, lemon, and bergamot. Most essential oils are extracted using the distillation process. In this process, the plant part is placed on a grid that's inside a container called a still. The still is then sealed. Water, steam, or a water and steam combination swirl inside the sealed still and slowly break down the plant.

Essential oils have been a part of the lives of human beings for many centuries. Our ancestors knew better the benefits of these oils than we know today. But as old trends always return, the aromas of essential oils have gotten into the minds of the intelligentsia again. And we are fortunate enough to have inherited the information on aromatherapy from them.
