Aromatherapy uses pure botanical extracts to promote health and well-being. By engaging our olfactory system—the sensory gateway most directly linked to emotion and memory in the brain—natural essential oils provide instant calm.
When inhaled or applied topically during a massage, essential oil molecules interact with receptors in the limbic system, the part of the brain that controls emotions, heart rate, blood pressure, and stress hormone production.
“Scent is the most evocative sense. A few drops of pure lavender or frankincense can signal your entire nervous system to enter a deep state of peace.”
Essential oils such as French lavender, Indian sandalwood, sweet orange, and bergamot have been clinically shown to decrease sympathetic nervous system activity, helping slow an elevated heart rate and soothe mental anxiety.
At Delhi Lotus Spa, our therapists custom-blend therapeutic-grade essential oils to match your specific emotional and physical state, whether you need uplifting daytime energy or evening deep relaxation.
