Aromatherapy Diffusers: Types of Diffusers

The Aromatherapy Diffusers are devices that allow the scents of essential oils and aromatherapy scents to diffuse into the air. There is a wide range of diffusers that vary in terms of their uses and one of the simplest ways to fill the room with the scents of aromatherapy oils are to simply add a few drops to a tissue and then place the tissue in the center of the room. The scent will slowly disperse into the air in the room and a tissue or cotton ball diffuser is especially useful in small spaces such as closets, vehicles and also cabinets. In just a few drops of an essential oil flavored as balsam or grapefruit can scent an entire car quite enough. These basic kinds of diffusers work perfectly well and there are also some electronic devices on the market that do the same job. There are a few companies that sell some electronically operated diffusers that are usually designed to plug into the ports for cigarette lighters and there are different types of Aromatherapy Diffusers to choose from such as Necklace diffusers that can be extremely simple by only having a tissue or cloth to soak in essential oil or a clay holder or pot that has openings in it to release the scents. Some diffusers release or give off stronger aroma while others are giving off a little aroma and some release stronger smell usually help in clearing sinuses and also provide a relief from other chronic symptoms. Aromatherapy Diffusers that provide a more delicate aroma may help in promoting some sort of relaxation. These types of diffusers usually use heat to release the scents of the oil. These include placing drops of the essential oils into a bowl of boiling water and the scents from the oils are released along with the steam from the hot water.

 

In some cases of Aromatherapy Diffusers that are heated with candles, drops of the essential oil is placed into a bowl and then placed over a candle. When the candle burns, it heats the oil and this in turn releases the aroma into the air.

 

Electric nebulizer diffusers  are considered as the safest type of diffusers and usually have a glass container in which to add the essential oils in it. The diffuser drives out the different sizes of essential oil molecules all at the same time. Some types of diffusers now have a silver ion sterilization technology which increase resistances to mold, corrosion, deodorize and also sterilize. Electric diffusers force air into the essential oils so that when the essential oil molecules are released into the air, they are already micro-sized. The result is a therapeutic blend of essential oils that is dispersed into the air and readily breathed in. Nebulizer diffusers are popular for respiratory conditions and there are also battery operated diffusers that apply the same method as to dispersing the oil. The effectiveness of these types of Aromatherapy Diffusers is that it spreads the aroma over the entire room not just around the diffuser. The only disadvantage of this type of diffuser is that the oil container must be replaced periodically because the fan will dry out the pad and is constantly using more oil to produce the vapor.

 

    Aromatherapy Diffusers can also be considered an efficient method because they can be used to treat multiple people at once. For instance, a couple may both suffer from headaches. Since one aromatherapy technique involves diffused scents and allowing the scents to fill a room and with a small amount can often be used for group treatment.
