The importance of ‘aroma’ in the AromaTouch Technique

Ever wondered how the sweet smell of vanilla can transport you to a place in your childhood, evoking images of your mother’s strawberry sponge cake? Or how vivid your memories are of nature walks with your family?

It’s basic human biology. There is a direct connection between your nose and your brain’s emotional control centre, the limbic system.

Nature has designed our olfactory system to be the most subtle, yet effective, means to induce specific and distinct responses. Because of this connection with the limbic system, aromas can impact our mood, memory and emotions. This is one of the primary reasons why essential oils are so powerful at influencing our wellbeing.

And, this is why the aroma in the AromaTouch Technique is so important.
