| Aromatherapy dates back
5,000 years – to the time of the ancient Egyptians
who learnt how to extract essential oils from aromatic
plants. These precious oils were then used for embalming
as well as for medicinal and cosmetic purposes.
Today aromatherapy takes many forms – the most
popular of which are burning aromatherapy candles or
using oil burners to infuse the air we breathe with
those essential oils.
The oils act on the olfactory nerve (which leads from
the nose to the brain) and depending on the combination
of oils, many different therapeutic benefits can be
experienced.
At dusk
you'll find a truly exquisite range of aromatherapy
pillar candles, container candles, votives and tealights.
All are carefully hand-poured using only the finest
essential oils and waxes.
For your oil burner choose dusk melts, the fuss-free
way to infuse your home. Of course we also stock a
wide range of traditional essential oils which are
sensational for a massage and a relaxing bath. |
