Aromatherapy Candles
It’s no wonder that an estimated 75% of candles sold in this country are scented candles*. Not only do they provide a quick, cost-effective way to enhance your home’s décor and add a flickering ambiance, aromatic candles have been linked to a host of psychological benefits. With a highly powerful sense of smell, humans are extremely receptive to the various impacts of different aromas, which explains the sustained popularity of aromatherapy candles.
The science of aromatherapy is based on an ancient practice of extracting all-natural oils from plants and applying them to the body for increased physical health and well-being. Aromatherapy candles are an easy, efficient way to draw in these advantageous oils, while lending a pleasing fragrance and decorative accent to the home. Among the heralded benefits of aromatherapy scents are alleviated chronic pains and injuries, prevention of anxiety and depression, lowered stress levels, and stimulation of the nervous system and immune system, all of which can result in elevated physical and emotional health.
While many Internet candle companies claim that their online scented candles qualify as aromatherapy candles, a large number of them don’t use actual essential oils, or may not use enough of them. All Scented Candles work closely with the manufacturers of their aromatherapy candles to ensure that each contains the appropriate level of essential oils for maximum benefit. Each of their highly scented candles is derived from the finest wax blends for longer-lasting fragrances and cleaner-burning wicks. In fact, many of our candles are actually poured by hand to achieve the best possible quality and consistency.
