Peppermint Aromatherapy

The Basics of Peppermint Aromatherapy

One of the most widely used essential oils is peppermint. When inhaled, the fragrance can help boost worker productivity by increasing concentration and focus. Peppermint is also excellent in helping to clear the sinuses. And, it is very refreshing. This is why there are so many chewing gums and mints made with peppermint. Peppermint tea is commonly consumed as a well-tolerated way to soothe the stomach. There are a variety of uses for this versatile mint, and if you are into aromatherapy you definitely need a bottle of peppermint essential oil.

There are a variety of ways in which peppermint oil can be used. It is important never to consume undiluted peppermint oil or even apply it to your skin. You can soothe your nerves with chewing gum made with real peppermint oil, for example the Origins company offers stress busting Peace of Mind Gumballs made with real peppermint, basil and eucalyptus. You can also simply inhale the fragrance of peppermint by wafting the essential oil bottle under your nose or applying a few drops to a tissue and inhaling. This is an ideal way to take aromatherapy on the go, scent your tissues and place them in a separate plastic Ziploc bag for each scent. It's portable aromatherapy without risk of oil spillage.

Speaking of portable aromatherapy, peppermint is a great fragrance for your vehicle but not one that is commonly seen in your average auto air freshener selection. Once again, it is easy to add the invigorating aroma of peppermint to your environment. Place a few drops of oil on cotton balls, then stash the cotton balls under your vehicle seats, in door pockets, unused ashtrays, anywhere they are out of sight. They will fragrance your car just as good, if not better, than one of those scented fresheners that hang from your rear view mirror.

In review, peppermint aromatherapy is good for boosting concentration and mental focus. It has an invigorating effect. You'll find many foot care products boasting peppermint oil because it is good for aching feet. Peppermint body scrub is a fantastic way to smooth your skin and energize yourself, and it is easily made at home. Combine olive oil and sea salt until you have a thick paste, then add drop by drop of peppermint oil until the scent is strong enough. While this can be made in bulk and kept in covered containers you can also make small quantities as needed.
