Aromatherapy is the skilled and controlled use of essential oils and fragrance for their healing properties. Holistic aromatherapy restores physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health.

The Eco-Mister uses hydrosols (flower waters), which is the condensate water co-produced during the steam, or hydro-distillation of plant material, for aroma-therapeutic purposes. This type of hydrosol misting is used by top leading spas for the development of healthier looking skin. Rose, Roman chamomile, neroli and lavender are the most common types of hydrosols, but our system is designed to allow you to produce just about any fragrant you like—from pineapples to coconuts.

DID YOU KNOW: That unlike the nerves of other senses, olfactory nerves, the nerves transmitting aroma to the brain, are directly connected to the hypothalamus. Hypothalamus has control over the endocrine system, which regulates hormones affecting growth and unconscious activities that maintain life such as heart rate, breathing, digestion, body temperature and hunger.

SO WHAT'S THE DEAL: The origin of aroma therapy can be traced back to one of the most ancient healing practices. The aroma of oils extracted from various herbs and plants, referred as essential plants, brings the mind and the body into the state of equilibrium, which helps healing various disorders–mental or physical. The essential plant oils are derived from various flowers, fruits, trees, herbs and resins. Pure essential oils are highly concentrated volatile substances. Some of them exhibit hormone like properties and contain vitamins, minerals and natural antiseptics. Essential oils can be used to treat a myriad of illnesses such as depression, stress, arthritis, back problems, muscle aches, headaches, colds, sinus problems, skin disorders, asthma, insomnia, metabolism, digest problems etc. The earliest recorded history of aroma therapy dates back to around 2890 BC, where the ancient Egyptians used aromatic substances for religious and medicinal purposes. The Chinese (around 2000 BC) used essential oils in acupuncture, massage, baths, and inhalations. The first modern study on aroma therapy was done by French chemist Gattefosse, whose work showed that the essential oils can very easily penetrate the skin and mingle with our body's extra-cellular liquids like blood. The circulation of these body fluids then carries the oils to the different organs. The study showed that even smelling these oils stimulate the brain's limbic system via the olfactory nerve and alters our emotional and mental behavior.

EcoMist also features Odor Control Systems that mist a solution of an all-natural odor neutralizer into the environment around the source of the odor. This method of odor control is less expensive, safer and more flexible than traditional odor control techniques. When atomized into the air, the neutralizer destroys odorous compounds through an absorption and biodegrading process. There is no manufactured fragrant or perfume. Instead, the neutralizer destroys odors; when the misting process is complete, the foul odor is gone. The neutralizer is made from only food grade and pharmaceutical grade ingredients, and has been tested for performance and safety by independent laboratories.
